Major Fail: Most Medical Groups See No ROI From EMRs

in emr •  8 years ago 

I’ve just had a look at a survey done by Physicians Practice magazine, and it’s pretty depressing. Not only are practices struggling to make sense of their EMRs, only one out of four are seeing any ROI on their investment.

According to the survey, which reached 1,568 clinicians and practice administrators across the U.S., 25% of respondents said that they were seeing a return on investment for their EMR, but 74.3% said they were not.

That’s not too surprising given that nearly 40% reported that they were struggling to optimize their system or boost their productivity back to normal levels.

I think we have a crisis here. Most medical groups in the U.S. don’t have the capital to fight this war.
