Medical Records

In Japan, medical records are called “karte”, the word stemmed from a German work.

In older and smaller clinics, doctors keep paper-based medical records.
Older doctors used to write the diagnosis and medication plan in German, even in Japan.

In bigger and newer hospitals and clinics, they use computer-based medical record keeping system.
Technology is making it easier to keep the information in order.

Now more and more clinics are using the computer-based system to keep their patient information.

【要約】
日本の小さな医療施設では、紙ベースのカルテが使われており、大きな総合病院などでは、電子カルテが採用されています。
