2. Expectations, Limits, and Barriers
for EMRs in U.S.
• Expectations:
• Widespread adoption of acute care and ambulatory EMRs, and
“meaningful use” – via first time ever financial incentives and
requirements from the federal government, increasingly
stringent over 3 phases starting this calendar year.
• Interoperable exchange of summary patient data among acute
care and ambulatory providers, payers, health registries, and
patients via health information exchanges
• Limits:
• Perverse incentives – hospitals and physicians get paid for
helping people once they’re sick as opposed to keeping people
healthy
• Hospitals compete against each other – medical arms wars –
most health systems don’t have good economies of scale in IT
3. Expectations, Limits, and Barriers
for EMRs in U.S.
• Barriers:
• Clinician adoption – lack of change management strategies
• Lack of pan-America standards adoption
• Money is tight, in both operating and capital budgets
• There’s a 40,000 – 60,000 person shortage of qualified,
experienced health IT professionals
• Potentially 35% of hospitals have “too far to go” to earn Phase
1 incentives.

5. Expectations, Limits, and Barriers
for EMRs/EPRs in Canada
• Expectations:
• Widespread adoption of physician/primary care clinic EMRs
• Obligation to make minimal data available to all patients –
lab/radiology diagnostic results, drug history
• Minimizing number of EMR platforms in most provinces
• Limits:
• Full acute care implementations at a few selected sites
• Extensive rural environment precludes practicality of complete
paperless EMRs in most population centers.
6. Expectations, Limits, and Barriers
for EMRs/EPRs in Canada
• Barriers:
• Clinician adoption remains a challenge
• Canada has yet to adopt HL7 CCD standards
• EMR strategies remain intra-provincial
• Emphasis by Canada Health Infoway on pan-Canadian
PHR
• Economic restrictions due to large deficits
