The interviewer will ask this question if their agency requires candidates to use electronic medical records (EMRs). The interviewer wants to see if you are proficient with them or if you would need to be trained on their use if hired. Agencies will typically state that proficiency with EMRs is preferred or required in their job description.

If you are proficient in using EMRs, tell the interviewer your proficiency level and how long you have been using them. If you are not knowledgeable about using electronic medical records, focus on telling the interviewer that you have not used them before, but you are willing and excited to learn.

If you have not used EMRs in the past, avoid simply saying that you are not proficient with them. Follow up by letting the interviewer know that you are willing to learn how to use EMRs and that you are a fast learner who will pick them up quickly.

"Yes, I am very proficient in using electronic medical records. I was taught how to use them in one of my college courses and have been using them for almost five years. They make patient documentation quicker and easier, and I prefer them over written charts."
