Shah Sun, 16 May 2010 20:03:22 +0000 http://www.healthcareguy.com/?p=808#comment-1500 Great question, Tracie. I think the chances of large-scale movement to EMRs is impossible by 2011. However, if your hospital was already down the path and has a sophisticated IT department and an executive team that has implemented technology previously they should be able to get started by then. It will be tough, but possible based on good management and implementation teams. Great question, Tracie. I think the chances of large-scale movement to EMRs is impossible by 2011.

While my facility has put forth the effort to change over to EMRs, the pace has come to a screaching hault due to the economic times we have all been put under. According to the HITECH plan that President Obama had put forth in February 2009, what is overall hope and prediction that can be said for hospitals and doctors offices alike with actually be able to initiate an EMR by the year 2011 as projected by the HITECH plan?

Would you and Apple consider a partnership with the Care Card Coalition? We would love to have you on-board. Let's sit together and discuss our way forward to insuring Apple and these applications have the first state and federal contracts for the new medical records applications that will be accessible throught the Care Card system. There is potential for applications that link all Care Card providers, even those outside of health care, to their Care Card customers. Each provider will need to have 'Control Panels' that give them the ability to manipulate procedure, service, and product pricing. We would also like to discuss development of the template that will be used by all Care Card participants to 'shop' providers through the online exchanges.<br> <br>Steven L Wolf Azmat.

What EMR would not by default have ePrescribing or ways to transfer information? Guidelines or not, that EMR would just not be successful or competitive.

I think in general you are right that innovation is happening in small firms; however, having frequently visited HIMSS over the past decade I always spent a lot of time at the smaller booths in the edges away from the deep pocket vendors where the startups live. This year, I did the same and left generally disappointed (with some exceptions). Abhi, excellent comments, thanks for sharing.
