Also something less talked about is how hospital administrators don't want to share their data for competitive advantages. So, they're more than happy letting the EMR vendors taking the blame for the lack of interoperability while in fact that said lack of interoperability is exactly what they're looking for when partnering up with an EMR. So, when trying to sell a third-party product to a hospital, administrators forward you to the EMR vendor, while EMR vendor forwards you to the administrators :) Each of those "forwarding" takes a few months.
