I've got some doc friends who really hate the electronic file provisions in PPACA, and their complaints range from a simple aversion to something so new, to the prohibitive costs of this software, to the inefficiency they see in the inputting of patient information.
Some of this is unavoidable, of course, given the laws for privacy and the many different styles that doctors have in their notations, and also given a very human aversion to change, particularly when that change is being forced upon you.
There is a way to make this better, though.
