Create the option for patients to enroll in a nationwide electronic medical records system, with a financial incentive for them to do so.
A good electronic medical records system would improve the quality and efficiency of care.
I waste a lot of time “re-inventing the wheel” when I have to diagnose a condition that was probably diagnosed years ago (new patient that doesn’t know their medical history).
This was supposedly being developed many years ago, but hasn’t come to fruition. I estimate that a good national emr system would make me 20% more efficient, if so, then cut what you pay me 20%.
