The scary part about the list in AC is that it is so easily alterable. It currently is a liability.

When I send a copy of charts to someone I print their current med list and a disclaimer that none of the lists within the notes are accurate.

A big improvement is that we can go to the eprescribe within the note. The help desk said that improvements to eprescribing have been put on hold until the certification process is done. I hope AC isn't spending a lot of time and effort in vain. I read an article in Medical Economics this past week that said the the CCHIT is probably going to go by the wayside when a more robust certification process comes along.

Anyway, AC is still a great tool and a nice value.
