This is my latest, more serious note which puts the situation at emrupdate in perspective. Sadly, it's just a small microcosm of what's going on in Congress with CCHIT/P4P/ePrescribing:

Now let me get serious for a second...

The reason why this thread is not bumped to an "inappropriate section" or to a wastebasket is that there are 2 moderators that are behind it- Lowell Kleinman and Bob Larson. Yes folks, they are MODERATORS and as such are abusing their moderator abilities to manipulate the emrupdate threads to try to harass a poster (me) that they disagree with. These 2 fellas are markedly, viciously anti-CCHIT and they want everyone to get out of the way so as to allow the legislation before Congress to go through. Speculation on the pending P4P/CCHIT legislation is what is thought to be bolstering the price of these public "big boy" EHR stocks at this time, including QSII (NextGen). If docs get their 10% Medicare pay cut rescinded, without any such HIT legislation added on, you'll see their stocks tumble again.

In fact, I would wager that in 2008 Lowell will most likely switch to NextGen from eCW and will get it either free or at a markedly reduced price for helping Bob Larsen out in harassing me in the manipulative manner that he did yesterday.

Now, you'll see this thread on top for the rest of the year, since it seems that other moderators cannot move it, even if it gets ugly and annoying. I doubt that Lowell will publicly apologize for starting it... that would be out of his character. So it'll be "on top" or in the "inappropriate section"... it is up to "moderator" Lowell to decide.

Right now I'm just calling it like I see it... and I'm rarely wrong in my intuitions.

Tomorrow is Sunday, a day to do more posting, including of course discussions on more reasons why CCHIT / P4P / ePrescribing are wrong.
