This morning, I had an opportunity to talk with Paul Roemer who writes an interesting blog called healthcareitstrategy. There are many physicians who have built their own EMR out of a desire to improve their internal practice operations and care delivery - often at significant cost. He published a guest blog from an oncologist who discussed his approach to developing an EMR. Conceptually very interesting because his strategy was all benefits and outcome based. If there was no value in a specific feature for operations or care delivery, he did not build it in.

The dream is always to build something that is universally useful to a wider group of physician users, but the nuances of specialty requirements, differing workflows and interoperability with the multitude of external providers and systems can be a significant challenge. That being said, this posting is worth reading.

The following is a guest blog by James T. Loynes, MD. During a recent call he told me about an EMR he wrote for his oncology practice. My initial thought was, “Just what we need, another EMR.” The more I listened, the more I thought he had something different, something that actually was built towards an eye for best practices. I asked him if he would tell you about it. The rest of this is his. The Path to Excellence Is Under Construction
