The Electronic Medical Record (EMR) - Is It Needed?

http://www.naturalfoodsdiet.org/the-electronic-medical-record-emr-is-it-needed/ In my practice more and more I get notes from other physicians, and this is especially true of the notes from the academic institutions. But these notes are pages and pages long. I think once in a medical history there was a mention of the patient's first girl friend's eye color. I feel sad when I think of all the trees we had to chop down for the note but damn—these guys are thorough. But then I realized, when I looked at it closely, it was all canned crap being spewed out of the electronic medical record (that's the EMR). Once after getting one super long note, I innocently asked the patient—man...that doctor must have spent an hour with you. The reply "the visit was only 5 minutes and he didn't even touch me or ask me any questions". Please leave a comment below this video and we will be sure to respond!
