If the government can't get physician adoption of the EHR under control, all else won't matter. How many facilities are doing workarounds so they do not have to inconvenience the physicians by implementing EHR compliance with actual hands on keyboard. So much of the data is being put in after the fact by anyone other than the physician.

Guess it is too late to suggest ONC should have selected a national EHR that all providers accepting MA or MC would be expected to use. This would have made things so much easier, not only for better user adoption, but interoperability would have been cake~
