Oncology is a complex and complicated medical practice which provides many unique services including characteristic diagnoses, treatment plans, ordering and administrating chemotherapy sessions. Physicians working in an oncology practice are called oncologists and they need to deal with large volumes of data and information which must be documented properly. There are many other medical characteristics that are unique for oncology practices. To cater to all these unique requirements, oncologists adopt oncology-specific Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and Practice Management (PM) software.
An Oncology EMR software is specifically designed and developed to meet all the unique needs of oncology practices. This also includes the overviewing and administration of chemotherapy drugs and sessions. One of the biggest challenges faced by all physicians including oncology physicians is choosing the right EMR and PM software for their practices.
