Research questioning EMRs effectiveness mounts
A buddy of mine, Bob Burns at 5th Quadrant, sent me a couple of links questioning the clinical effectiveness of EMRs; the links were just adding to several others reports that I’ve seen recently. I’m not sure I agree with all the findings, but the direction in which the winds are blowing is clear: be wary of EMRs that promise better clinical outcomes.
