Why did I create this blog?

Electronic medical records is getting lots of attention these days, especially with the Federal Government's incentive program regarding "meaningful use" implementation of EMR.  In our practice, ENT of Georgia we are in our 6th year of EMR, so we are far ahead of most.

Over the past 5+ years we have learned a great deal about bringing a medical practice into the information age - not just EMR but a host of other functions as well.  I hope to share what we have learned.

  2. I love the realized savings breakdown! In addition to cost savings, anyone can access the patient records which really helps when your colleagues refer patients to you. You certainly couldn't be running charts around I-285 now could you? And I love the fact that it makes us "greener" both from a fiduciary aspect as well as an environmental one. Thanks for the information. Keep the blogs coming!uch "greener" process as well
