from my n=1...moved from savannah to san antonio recently and back to paper charting. have to say that the emr was such a huge asset to my old practice. I have broached the subject with my new employers and they are reluctant due to start up cost, transferring of old charts into the electronic form. It was such a time saver to be able to pull up a chart while I was on the phone with the patient and review data. Now someone has to take a message, pull the chart, etc. Eliminated the need for MR clerk, and a lot of wasted time on the phone. Labs interfaced directly into the chart as well. that's my $0.02 ginny

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
