Nearly 4 in 5 U.S. office-based physicians have adopted an electronic health record (EHR) system. EMRs/EHRs help them organize and manage patient information efficiently. An EHR is a more comprehensive record of a patient's overall health, while an EMR is a narrower view of the medical history.
Functional medicine is a systems-based approach that helps identify and address disease causes. A functional medicine EHR is a digital system used to store and manage patient data. The data includes demographics, medical conditions, medications, lab results, and treatment plans.
Cerbo is a functional medicine software that streamlines healthcare workflows. As such, the functional medicine EMR allows providers to focus more on patients and less on paperwork. Below, we discuss its benefits for functional medicine:
Direct primary care EHR software is a specialized type of EHR software. It helps meet the unique needs of DPC practices. DPC practices are smaller than traditional medical practices but offer more personalized care.
Many patients are looking for a more personalized and affordable approach to care. And DPC is a growing trend in healthcare. When you elevate your DPC practice, you can attract new patients and retain existing ones.
As a DPC software platform, Cerbo optimizes your workflow and practice management. It allows you to deliver high-quality care to your patients. Cerbo offers the tools and support you need to thrive in direct primary care.

Cerbo's charting capabilities can improve decision-making and patient outcomes. The shareable encounter summaries help share information about the patient's care plan. As a result, it ensures that everyone involved is on the same page.
Many patients don't understand their medical conditions or their treatment plans. So, it's difficult for them to make informed decisions about their care. Some patients avoid care or don't follow their providers' recommendations.
Low patient engagement can have several negative consequences. These consequences include poor health outcomes and high healthcare costs. Luckily, technology can help patients to manage their health.
Cerbo's direct primary care software includes a personalized patient portal. The portal makes it easier to communicate with patients. As such, it keeps patients engaged in their care and lets them manage their health.
Patients can access custom fillable consent forms in the direct primary care EMR. The portal eliminates the need for paper forms. It makes it easier for your patients to give you the information you need.
Patients can view and add at-home readings to their vitals history. This way, you can track your patient's progress over time. You can also identify any potential changes in their health.

It can be difficult to track and bill for services when you offer a wider range of services. If you offer specialized tests and supplements, it can be difficult to set billing codes. With a higher percentage of self-pay patients, it may take time to collect payments.
