Physician Advisor’s Corner: The impact of EHR on your CDI efforts
by Trey La Charité, MD, FACP, SFHM, CCS, CCDS
Do you want to see a doctor explode? Just ask about the facility’s electronic health record (EHR) system. I have never heard a practicing clinician say, “I love the EHR.” Most clinicians see the EHR as a bureaucrat-imposed quagmire that has resulted in an increased workload without any perceptible benefit to the patient. However, the EHR is here to stay. Providers need to accept that fact.
