Hold on. We have computers and networks. In most other countries I've been in, records are computerized and there's no need to write a piece of paper that you hand to new doctors and 'get good at handling your own health care.' Even here I see some exchange across providers on a "Mychart" like app. That's a start.
But what you're seeing is inefficiency - a computerized world where you're telling people they should bring printouts of everything to all appointments seems really unnecessary a burden.
