I just want to make sure I'm understanding this correctly. If I understand your response above, you're saying that EPR and EHR are one and the same. The reason I ask again is that the second example in Appendix A of "Access to Electronic Health Records" seems to imply that they are different in the following sense. It looks like the EPR is a record of a specific transaction and that the EHR is a compliation of EPR's over time.
