Interesting. Thanks. I took it to mean his whole training cost him. My husband says it was the EMR ( electronic medical record ) that drove him to it. 🤓

I dealt with EMRs almost all of my career so that didn’t bother me. Having read Paul Star’s “The Social Transformation of AMerican Medicine” early on (published in ‘78, IIRC I read it in the late 80s). Having read that book and pondered I feel like I had a good idea of where Medicine was heading and it has been clear for decades that it ain’t a good place. I tried to get folks in Medicine to wake up but they just didn’t want to hear it or see it.

I was at a talk given by Reagan’s HHS guy back in ‘88. Even then he was saying we were digging our way into a hole we can’t get out of. Economically, intellectually, ethically, Medicine is just headed toward a disaster and the folks in charge just are unable to see the wreck coming.

The problem with EMRs, IMHO, is not what they do or how or whatever. The real problem is the potential for abuse. We already know that the NSA has been weaponized by the Rats so they already have the infrastructure to abuse the data and it would not surprise me one bit that they are doing so already.
