We went fully live with AC 1/3/12. At that time I told staff to NOT print any notes from AC unless they were going to send it some where. We are just in process of bringing up UpDox for direct faxing of our reports to referring MDs.
I still have the paper chart brought in so I can quickly enter the ICD9 and Dx from last visit on those for whom this is their first "AC visit".
What do I find, inspite of my injunction on the needless printing of notes that exist in AC, the are still insisting on doing it, and spending my money to staple, punch and file those notes. Ditto lab and other inbound documents we receive electronically (Long standing MFC fax machine). And we have been scanning 6 years!
I'm really pissed! They say "we don't trust the computer".
Grrrrr!
So, now that I've vented, has any of you good docs seen this? If so, how did you handle?
