USA Today op-ed

USA Today op ed

My latest USA Today op-ed was published this morning: Why doctors still balk at electronic medical records.

On a related note, I’m now a member of the USA Today’s Board of Contributors. Expect to see my opinion pieces published every few months or so.

Thank you all for your continued readership and support.

Congratulations, Kevin! Like you needed more to do.

The VA system works because it was designed to gather and share information about the patient encounter. Commercial EMR's are, at their heart, systems designed to justify E&M codes.
