The medical history of a particular patient can be accessed using the number.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eHospital.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10629\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance_of_cloud_to_eHospital\"><\/span>Importance of cloud to eHospital:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I. Cloud technology offers to store medical records in multiple virtual platforms like infrastructure as a service (IaaS), software as a service (SaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">II. The cloud-based platform has reduced the IT cost of healthcare and eased the task to store a massive amount of healthcare data.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">III. eHospital leverages the technology enabling the doctors to access the medical records from anywhere and at any time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">IV. The full range of clinical, administrative and lab capabilities are linked by a single data repository, which prevents carbon emission by on-premise servers.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">V.
