It's funny, I assumed the same. I then asked a few who used the product, and was surprised to hear praise for Epic. I wonder if the product has actually improved, or if users have simply conceded.
out of curiousity, what kind of physicians were these, in terms of specialty as well as employment status (hospital employed, hospital affiliated, part of med group, independent)?
most of the physician surveys ive seen express negative views about EMRs, but a sizable portion of physicians say that EMRs help make some things easier and more efficient. cant locate the surveys offhand
I'll probably be keeping at least somewhat in touch with them, so in a couple months perhaps I'll have some basis for comparison.
