The Athletic Training Practice-Based Research Network (AT-PBRN) Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system is a web-based medical documentation and injury surveillance tool for athletic trainers. The EMR system was designed and developed by athletic trainers in partnership with Ripple Group™, an international technology communication company.
The EMR is compliant with the data acquisition, storage, and transmission standards set forth by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
Health information obtained using the EMR is not stored locally on computers. Instead, data is uploaded in real-time and transmitted to secure, redundant servers.
This manual is designed to help orient the athletic trainer to the EMR and to provide technical information and training.
