Thank you.

I do support Tyrion's amendment and accept it as friendly, though I assume a vote will still be required since it's well past 24 hours.

Shua is rightly concerned about what may happen with the transition to electronic records. We should make sure above everything that we have the safeguards in place so that such a system will be effective.

Well, that article was certainly being a little silly: As usage went up, so did fraud from that type of usage. That's not really a conclusion worth making.

Nitpicking aside, we should probably ban "Copy and Pasting" altogether.

I realize that any dissent from unlimited faith in technology is just considered negativity these days, but I have to try. Things that you might consider user friendly are not the same that an elderly or middle age doctor would consider user friendly.   We are talking about more work for doctors, more expense, more early retirements at a time where we already have a doctor shortage.


I don't think you need "unlimited faith" in technology to see the strength of computerization and data centralization in such a case. Hell, an incredible amount of data is fudged because of poor handwriting alone, and that's not to mention the massive divides created by keeping medical records firmly in hard copy format.

You expect doctors to lose jobs, but for them to have more work?

The one thing I can agree on is that this will certainly incur a short term infrastructure cost.

I expect doctors will voluntarily leave the profession because they are overwhelmed by IT duties.

Form-filling on a laptop is as much an IT duty as form-filling on paper is a secretarial duty.

Well yes but doctors have decades in training in using a pen and paper.

Thank you for that link, Spiral. It's good to know this issue is getting some press.

An amendment: Hospitals shall provide assistance to their doctors and provide useful information in order to adapt to new technologies. Those hospitals that don't attend for those requirements may face a fine defined by the Department of Health and Human Services.

Amendment 58:74 has been adopted.


Are, Mr Secretary. Where is that to be inserted in the text. I can offer it if I am given clarification.

When can we expect the Great President of the People to give the people's opinion on the matter then? Wink

This is my best guess. I picked a random number for a fine for not providing information. I have no idea what a fair one would be.. Tongue

I object to this amendment. nevermind its okay I guess, but what is needed is for doctors and hospitals to have direct support from the government in complying with the government's program.

I would like to offer the following amendment:
