Abstract : There are several worries that the electronic medical record is destroying the doctor-patient bond and separating doctors from the people they treat. On the other hand, new analytical technologies can give a way towards making medical treatment more patient-focused by freeing up doctors' and the efforts of the entire clinical care team to interact with patients through assuming over monotonous and tedious duties. The patient-clinician connection might be revitalised, and clinician wellbeing could perhaps be enhanced by technology like sophisticated voice recognition that streamlines doctors' productivity. Digital records are expected to elevate healthcare. However, a large amount of contemporary medical data is housed in proprietary apps, incompatible infrastructure, including distinct spreadsheets, making it difficult to exchange, evaluate or interpret it. As an outcome, the development of medicine is slowed down by the inability to properly use technology including “big data”, artificial intelligence, even mobile apps that rely on this type of information. In this piece of writing, we contend how interoperability is a must for the technological advancements anticipated for the field of healthcare in the future.
