You're right, that's a huge problem. Critical access hospitals are really struggling, and many smaller hospitals and clinics are getting swallowed up by big hospitals somewhat nearby. A side effect of that is that the newly-acquired sites are often migrated to the records system of the new owner, which is creating silos of medical records. The problem is that the silos still aren't connected to one another, which means the vast majority of hospitals still have to transfer records through fax. I really wish I was joking about that.
