EHRs are bought by people who don't understand what they are getting, used by people who don't get to decide on what they are getting, and the effects are noticed after millions were poured into integration. EHR companies have bigger incentives on selling than on making shit better. Worse, if I was to make an EHR startup with amazing UI and all around amazeballs features, I'd never get into a single hospital convincing their CTO to replace the current EHR system and re-train doctors. Never gonna happen. Welcome to the problems of Enterprise tools, we've been having these for decades and nobody has solved it well yet. The only real solution is for a hospital to take say 5 doctors of various tech and age levels, and create a mini EHR (regardless of cost) and test it. Then switch to another. The doctors would be EXPECTED to be inefficient, but they will be the scouts of the hospital. But hospital CTOs don't think in this way. Rarely are they technical people.
