Docs not tech savvy, or tech not doc savvy? | Survivor: Pediatrics
Dr Sullo makes a nicely stated summary of how the federal push for EHRs *should* have been managed. I would call it an argument as to why the current free-market free-for-all in health IT is not the best answer to a very complex problem. If patients understood just how incompatible most computer systems are when it comes to data sharing, they would be impressed that we get anything shared at all! I do hope that the system will be rebuilt before too long. Truly, we cannot trust private health information and public interest to profit-driven companies.
