Don’t expect much of a revenue boost. Any wonder why EMRs are so slow to spread?
One way to objectively measure value is return on investment (ROI). The news our survey delivers on this front isn’t particularly good. For every two respondents who say they have earned back in efficiency and revenue what they invested in an EMR, three say they have not. That’s despite the large number of survey participants who were able to reduce or reassign staff.
