Great article on Venturebeat talks about the loss of efficiency (and therefore money) associated with certain EHRs. As I've said before, interface matters. Here's some quotes: "EHRs are one of the main issues that make doctors worry about their profitability." " EHRs are currently slowing doctors down ... 20 to 25 percent of doctors will be back in the market for better solutions surrounding EHRs." Venturebeat goes on with a fantastic second article titled " Nurses will never adopt your tech if the usability sucks ," which reinforces the same idea, interface matters . “User experience it’s really critically important. Because of the consumer experience now is pretty slick, when you get into the walls of the hospital [consumer-grade experiences are] beginning to be the expectation, and we so don’t deliver it right now.” http://venturebeat.com/2013/05/21/carecloud-ppi/
