From Anti-EHRs to Pro-ACOs: a Must-Read Story

Have I ever told you about what I call "Noah syndrome"? You've heard about the ark and the flood, right? Poor old Noah was told not only to build the ark but also to warn everyone about the coming flood. Given many years of drought, everyone thought he was crazy. They taunted him and laughed. I suspect you know how that story ended! Sometimes I feel like Noah. The transformation of health care has seemed a far-off reality, a bit of a joke in the minds of some. Many older doctors especially have sworn they'd rather retire than switch. 'Paper works fine thank you. The world can just go ahead and change without me.'


Meet Dr. Jeffrey Selwyn. His is a story you really must read! With thanks to Diana Manos, Senior Editor for Healthcare IT News, here is "Not retiring at 65: Physician goes from anti-EHR to pro-ACO".


Enjoy!
