A Better Way to Implement EMRs: Why one-size-fits-all won’t work

May 2, 2010

I have been a strong advocate of electronic medical records (EMRs) for almost a decade. In fact, I used the phrases “It is the silver bullet for health care reform infrastructure” and “It is the cornerstone for health care reform infrastructure” to describe EMR plans when President Obama was campaigning.

She also continues to take loratadine and has found saline irrigation with the neti pot helpful in clearing her sinuses.
