We were included in a nice article on EMR consulting and it's impact on adoption.
Waldren says it often becomes a quandary for physicians because they don’t have the financial resources or desire to pay for expert advice, but they are reluctant to start the process of EMR adoption due to fears that the wrong decisions will be made. “You need to show value, and you need to build trust. Those are the two things consultants have to answer for,” Waldren emphasizes. “I do see some uptake [with EMR consultants], but I also see that they have a difficult marketing challenge ahead of them [with physicians].”
That pretty much encapsulates both the article and our feelings on the subject. But do click through so you can read my quotes!
