Electronic Medical Records Are a Mess! Here's Why.

Electronic Medical Records Are a Mess! Here's Why. The EMR serves 3 purposes: Communication with other clinicians, Billing documentation and as a Legal record. In order to bill for patient visits, doctors must document specific phrases related to the patient's history and physical exam. There are a lot of billing codes and a lot of documentation rules for each billing code. As a result, doctors copy and paste their own notes and other doctors' notes over and over again to fill the electronic medical record with junk information. In fact, the University of Pennsylvania recently published a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association that found that 50% of EMR text is copied and pasted. As a result, the EMR is filled with so much redundant, repetitive information that the average patient record is 56% the length of Shakespeare's 'Hamlet.' Just reading the records for 10 patients is the equivalent of reading an 85 page book... and most physicians see more than twice as many patients each day. The Result: Doctors skim medical records and miss the important information that is buried amongst the copied note text. Errors occur and patients are hurt.
