Quote
  "By efficiently capturing and presenting individual patient and population level data, EHR systems can themselves become population health interventions, helping clinicians identify and efficiently treat chronic populations in a healthcare system that is rapidly shifting from fee-for-service to risk-based (quality) payment models. One example is using variation analytics to help clinicians understand-see-their treatment practices in context of evidence-based guidelines and peer performance, nonjudgmentally providing them with point-of-care solutions to consistently implement recommended guidelines. Armed with this kind of intelligence, a care team can reduce clinical risk by identifying gaps in care and devising care plans centered on specific patient needs and characteristics."
-John Squire President/COO Amazing Carts, Boston, Mass.
