To REVERSE what the guy said in “Animal House”…
Oh boy this is NOT going to be great.
In a sense most people ARE in the system(s) already such as Epic and Cerner.
But the bigger the system, the more crap it contains (literal crap), and the more prone to hacking.
If I get a patient lab report from LabCorp or Quest, it’s usually a page or two.
If I get a lab report of the SAME TESTS from a hospital system using Epic or Cerner, it is about TEN PAGES OF GARBAGE, through which I have to plod to get the actual data I’m looking for.
Expect:
1) More garbage.
2) More hacking.
3) More loss of privacy.
4) More intrusion and misuse.
