• Description:
  Electronic case reporting (eCR) is the automated, real-time exchange of case report information between electronic health records (EHRs) and public health agencies. These timely data are more complete than manual reporting and include patient demographics (such as race and ethnicity), diagnoses, comorbidities, occupation, travel history, immunizations, medications, pregnancy status, and other treatments.
  
  eCR runs securely and seamlessly behind the scenes in the EHR to automatically capture and report required information, reducing provider burden. eCR also enables immediate feedback from public health agencies to healthcare providers about reportable conditions and possible outbreaks.
  
  eCR is a collaborative effort of the Association of Public Health Laboratories, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists, and CDC.
