Abstract: The increase of computer usage and the cooperation between medicine and informatics has lead to the development of important research and educational activity as well as high quality infrastructure in the field of biomedicine. Concentrating on Health Information Management (HIM) and Health Information Exchange (HIE) systems, Electronic Health Record (EHR), and Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software is being developed in order to provide efficiency in health care and improve patient-doctor relationship. The Ob/Gyn EMR software developed focuses on the needs of small obstetrics and gynecology organizations. The necessary gynecological information was gathered via research concerning the needs of the practice and was organized and categorized according to its importance to the clinicians. Seven different data tabs are provided, including obstetrics, gynecological, surgical, sterilization, and PAP test data, while also offering video and image file storage possibilities and schematic visualization of clinical findings. It is of great importance throughout the whole software that the user can store and manage all the quality information concerning patients and that the software is highly functional. A simple and effective software was created that can offer a reliable solution to the data processing needs of the organizations in concern. The software is autonomous, can be installed directly on the clinician’s PC, and can be accessed at various locations within their clinic.
