Does anyone know of a certified successful ehr that doesn't require connection to it's mother?
Does anyone know of a certified successful ehr that has the eula that AC used to have?
My point is that it is only competition from another ehr vendor or governmental regulation that will get AC to change back to their previous eula.
The government is encouraging the vendors to get away with this, because the government wants to mine our databases as well for their own utopian reasons.
Basically, I think the most likely effort to succeed is to get statehouses to restrict the practice in your state by limiting it to governmental and insurers only. This is an issue that can drive votes with the same passion as witnessed here.
Until there is another ehr that does what we want, and I'm hoping for info on that, I think AC will look at this as a tempest in a teapot.
All the big ehrs are doing it, so why shouldn't the nicest one do it too?
