Streamlined Health Data Exchange for Public Health
The CDC’s Electronic Case Reporting (eCR) is an automated system that facilitates the real-time exchange of health data between electronic health records (EHR) and public health agencies. By streamlining case reporting, eCR enhances the efficiency of public health surveillance, improving disease tracking, and case management. It provides healthcare facilities with a secure and reliable way to share critical information, helping to protect and promote community health.
