Information We Process
DokEMR may process account, professional, clinic, subscription, billing, support, usage, security, and technical information needed to create and maintain a clinic workspace.
Patient information entered by clinics may include demographics, contact details, clinical notes, diagnoses, medications, prescriptions, certificates, laboratory orders, laboratory results, images, billing records, portal activity, and other clinic records.
Purpose of Processing
Information is processed to provide EMR services, manage accounts and roles, secure access, support clinic workflows, generate documents, process subscriptions and billing, respond to support requests, improve reliability, and comply with applicable requirements.
DokEMR may use operational logs, audit trails, and security events to protect the platform, investigate issues, and maintain accountability.
Clinic and DokEMR Roles
For patient records entered by a clinic, the clinic or healthcare provider generally determines why and how the data is collected and used. DokEMR processes that data as part of providing the platform. The data stays the clinic's: the clinic administrator can export a complete copy at any time.
Doctors and staff who work in a clinic's workspace act on the clinic's behalf. Questions between a clinic and its doctors about who may keep or take which records are for them to settle; DokEMR follows the instructions of the workspace's clinic administrator and does not limit any right a patient has to access their own record.
Clinics should provide appropriate privacy notices to patients and ensure that users access only data they are authorized to handle.
Storage and Security
DokEMR uses role-based access, session controls, audit trails, encrypted credentials, access gating, and other technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect clinic and patient data.
No safeguard is perfect. Clinics should keep devices, browsers, networks, and user access practices secure to reduce risk.
Sharing and Service Providers
DokEMR may use service providers for hosting, email, payment, support, analytics, OCR, AI review, or other platform functions where configured and necessary.
DokEMR does not sell patient records. Data may be disclosed when required by law, authorized by the clinic, needed to provide configured services, or necessary to protect security and legal rights.
Retention and Requests
Clinic and patient records are retained while the clinic uses DokEMR, and for at least 30 days after a workspace ends so the clinic can export them, and afterwards only as needed for legal, accounting, audit, support, security, and continuity purposes. Export is self-service for the clinic administrator (Clinic Settings > Data Export); if that is not possible, DokEMR support will prepare an export at no charge. A deletion requested by the clinic is carried out after an export has been made available.
Data subject requests should generally be directed to the clinic or healthcare provider that controls the patient relationship. DokEMR can assist clinics with platform-side support where appropriate.
