@mhhf1ve - great example. Yes, I think there will be a better business model that will serve the markets - as opposed to the providers/payers. And I could not agree more, the EHR's that exist are so single focused as to be almost worthless - this is why Meaningful Use and support for EHR's are not moving forward!

Re: Apps
Part of the problem for EHRs is that there are so many legal privacy requirements that no software companies are willing to invest in making a non-proprietary system that they can't lock Drs into using. And no doctor office wants to touch EHR software that doesn't make their legal liabilities clear and minimal.

@mhhf1ve thanks for that link, I'll have to check it out. Yes, X-Rays don't always transfer over even when they're regular ones from a hospital to an affiliated doctor. We've had to manually bring both discs and physical X-Rays from one office to another ourselves because of that.

Re: Apps
Transferring medical files is oddly difficult when huge non-medical files (eg pirated 4K movies, VR games) are regularly transferred between teenagers. It doesn't seem like it should be so hard to communicate medical info. A doctor friend of mine, tho, was telling me how hard it was for him to get his colleagues to use a snapchat-like app for discussing patients conditions within the same hospital.

Re: Apps
@mhhf1ve at my pediatrician's office, the story was that no one's system's talks to the other. But even within connected systems, there are roadblocks like the doctor who doesn't update his log in credentials, etc.

Re: Apps
That is an excellent point. The path to actual transferrable records is long and winding.

Heh. You'd think with the notorious bad handwriting that doctors have.. That they'd be more open to trying a text-based app for recording notes. But then I guess handwriting vs typing/texting is still a hurdle for some folks. And voice transcription for medicine exists but it's a hassle and an expense.

@mhhf1ve - you outline the issues well! Check out CentriHealth.com - they are one of the national companies who understand the issue and are working on IHR's as well as EHR's. The people that truly understand are NOT satisfied.
