Expect a Sharp Upturn for EMR Systems

Posted By: PugetSounder on 2006-04-09
In Reply to: Hope this is not a bad sign - darn EMR

Hello, I understand the Commission on Systemic Interoperability has finished the first draft of the criteria, and that it will be completed by June of this year. Once these are published, many more hospitals will feel ready to shop for/implement their EMR software. Right now there are more hospitals going to EMR than clinics (I think), because larger systems get put in place first. However, clinics will follow and will be incented by the networks they belong to, to install the same or compatible EMR systems, by those hospitals/networks providing some of the startup costs for the systems.

See
http://www.os.dhhs.gov/healthit/comsystinter.html for commission overview.

I could post more links if there is interest.
