How is Data from EHRs Utilized in Epidemiology?

Data from EHRs can be used to identify disease patterns and trends. For example, EHRs can help in monitoring the spread of infectious diseases, understanding chronic disease prevalence, and identifying emerging health threats. Researchers can also use EHR data to conduct cohort studies, case-control studies, and cross-sectional studies, which are fundamental to epidemiological research.
