@WSJ it's not so much about federal funding incentive. It's a federal mandate
@WSJ @mattfannell Grandpa was a GP. His records were a 3x5 card per patient. One line per visit. Notes to himself. Got to talk to patients.
@WSJ @mattfannell By govt mandate, we have placed a computer squarely between the patients and us. #emr
@WSJ @mattfannell Trauma comes in, we dedicate one whole physician to be putting orders into the computer instead of caring for patient #emr
@WSJ @mattfannell Did you order IV fluids in #EPIC? No, not THAT saline order. You have to use the new one with the right code. #EMR
@WSJ @mattfannell Did you screen for ebola? TB? Did you record pain on a scale of 1 to 10? #emr
@WSJ @mattfannell Did you screen for sepsis? Did you use the "approved" sepsis order set? No? Then you must record why not. #emr
@WSJ @mattfannell Did you not give TPA? You MUST record it right then. Did you fill out the entire sedation chart in real time? #emr
@WSJ @mattfannell With #EPIC we are forced to do more and more in the computer. It's a self-perpetuating cycle. And the govt forces us to.
@WSJ I wish my doctor would use his records more!
@WSJ never looks at ME... only his computer. My acupuncturist pays attention to ME... he is better.
@WSJ yes they are. Dr's are not into the profession because they care, they are in it for all their own benefits and kickbacks #4getthesick
