One of the first factors to identify when estimating what EMR training will cost is the nature of both the EHR system and the training strategies you will employ. For example, training price differences will naturally exist between a server-based system hosted in-house vs. a SaaS (Software as a Service) cloud-based system.
Breaking down the cost elements affecting the price of EMR training can help you begin to build a budget for this critical process. First, vendors often can provide training packages depending on your needs. Similarly, other independent medical records system trainers can provide varying levels of support.
As stated above, there are many factors that influence the price of EMR training, and therefore create significant variability in cost. Even so, estimates do exist based on specific implementations within hospital systems to serve as a model for initial estimates.

An Electronic Medical Record (EMR) System is essentially a digital form of the paper charts used for patients. In their functioning, EMRs are meant to store information on a patient’s medical history within a health organization. Additionally, the system is also used to manage and make decisions about a patient’s health care.
EMRs usually requires a number of mobile devices . As such, you will need to factor in the cost of such things as desktop computers, mobile devices like tablet PCs, phones, iPad, etc., printers, scanners, fax machines, and the like. Again, some systems need to be installed and configured by skilled technicians.
Training extends to physicians, nurses, and office staff. In addition to training staff, a decision regarding who will carry out the training will need to be made. Often the vendor will offer training services. However, this could be limited, requiring in-house staff to conduct training in the future.
The National Registry Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) cognitive exam is a computer adaptive test (CAT). The number of items a candidate can expect on the EMR exam will range from 90 to 110. Each exam will have between 60 to 80 ‘live’ items that count toward the final score. The exam will also have 30 pilot questions that do not affect ...
Based on the most recent practice analysis, the National Registry Board approves a cognitive exam test plan. A test plan is a blue-print that tells the computer testing software how to build a candidate's exam.
The passing standard is defined by the ability to provide safe and effective entry level emergency medical care. We strongly encourage candidates to review the following information: Cognitive Exam Policies. Cognitive Exam Information.
If a candidate's EMR state license has lapsed, or National EMR Certification has lapsed, the candidate must complete an entire state-approved Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) course and complete the cognitive and psychomotor examinations.
The number of items a candidate can expect on the EMR exam will range from 90 to 110. Each exam will have between 60 to 80 ‘live’ items that count toward the final score. The exam will also have 30 pilot questions that do not affect the final score.
The maximum amount of time given to complete the exam is 1 hour and 45 minutes. The exam will cover the entire spectrum of EMS care including: Airway, Respiration & Ventilation; Cardiology & Resuscitation; Trauma; Medical; Obstetrics/Gynecology; EMS Operations.
Emergency Medical Responder psychomotor examinations are not administered by the National Registry. All EMR psychomotor exams are administered by either the State EMS Office or at the training institution (with approval and oversight provided by the State EMS Office).
