I discussed the current state of the EHR with Michael Nissenbaum of Aprima. The EHR has always been a data collection tool, a mechanism for data aggregation. Michael sees the persisting lack of interoperability as something that harms the patient, harms the provider, and raises cost. Inovalon has been around for about 20 years.

A large survey of clinicians finds that the #1 predictor of positive EHR experience is training, with EHR personalization also being a major contributor. The EHR is just not that platform. EHR vendors built their systems to suit their health system masters and use their size anti-competitively, just like health systems do.

Those who assume that EHR developers are just low-skill or don’t have user experience expertise are wrong. For example, sharing calendar data with a tool like Calendly is something that makes me more productive, and is not explicitly approved by Redox. I believe the biggest barrier is bad HIPAA training.
