Now, the trick with all this will be to see how we can satisfy MU and not compromise patient care. The secret to quality care is not computers, REC's, MU, etc, etc. As Francis Peabody famously said, "The secret to the care of the patient is to care for the patient." As I'm sitting talking to a patient and struggling with my laptop I have to constantly keep Dr. Peabody's advice in mind.
