10. Do not allow for a universal Medical Identification number
9. Encourage a community based model where one institution purchases and EHR capability then sells it or leases it to private physicians
8. Create regulations that encourage the disparity of clinical data.
7. Allow important third party health care entities (i.e., insurance payers, pharmacies, manage care providers, clearings houses etc.) to be exempt from the government regulations that physicians are forced to abide by.
6. Create Electronic Medical Record Regulations design to correct all the problems with health care financing and clinical treatment.
5. Spend the money from the new stimulus package for a National Health Care Network and Health Care Exchanges and not Electronic Medical Record Systems
4. Create standards that make the system cost more to purchase and more difficult to use
3. Create a one size fits all EMR system
2. Create the Electronic Medical Record system so that it is so complicated that it takes years to achieve full integration to the practice.
1. Expect the Physician to shoulder the financial burden of paying for the EMR.

Rodger's blog is important and timely. Our government is positioned to release billions of dollars to attack this "windmill". Rodger describes the hurdles through his experience as a Practice CEO as well as vendor. We all should absorb, challenge and communicate our responses to the mix. Perhaps the Washington bureaucrats who make the choices for us may get insight.
ReplyDeleteI love to read all topic it is really fantastic and informative. The EMR allows easy browsing of medical records and at the same time, gives easiness to updating medical files of previous patients. Having a complete track of the medical records of patients allows sooner and effective implementation of health services.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
