A main problem lies with the physical storage and sorting of paper medical records. These records must be stored for a statue number of years in a climate controlled environment.

There are a number of errors that occur with the transcription of paper charts. These include wrong types and dosing of medications and errors in treatments.

There is also the issue of transfer of copies of paper records versus the ease of electronic record transfer.

Computerized order entry from the physician onward is the single largest process to reduce medical errors.
