Documentation

How the patient is excluded from the reasons why we document:

We doctors, in order to make our living, have been turned into Medicare lemmings and I believe it brings incredible loss of productivity by deferring time, money and resources from patient care to patient documentation:

To appease the lawyers. It didn’t happen. You’re at fault
To appease the insurance companies. It didn’t happen. You wont get paid
To appease the government. It didn’t happen. Your quality is poor.

Guess who’s missing from that population of people.

The patient.
