Sandeep, from what you see of AC and its construction, what happens if we are totally happy with what we have, and never do another upgrade? Ignore MU requirements, ICD-10, etc..... assume we can patch around them. Is there some connection to AC that HAS to be maintained, or could we just continue to enter chart notes and if need be manually code and prescribe if our relationship with AC totally dissolved?

My concern, exactly.
I don't yet trust the cloud -- our internet is not that reliable.
Despite all the protestations of security, I don't believe that some of that data won't leak out.

If the internet goes down, there goes your data.

On the other hand, there is e-prescribing. At least for now that is part of the annual fee we pay to AC. I suppose we could get that standalone, but would it integrate with AC?
