Some #medical #nudges that didn't work:
Most (of a dozen) clinician-facing #ElectronicHealthRecord deprescribing tools didn't work? https://doi.org/10.1111/jgs.19609
Showing clinicians cheaper versions of a drug didn't reduce prescription costs? https://doi.org/10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2025.19038

Our health system bought Epic a few years ago. It has been hilarious and frustrating as a non-clinician to see how many conversations along the lines of "what do you mean it can't do that???"
Attached: 1 image Epic Systems makes the dominant electronic health record (EHR) system in America; if you're a doctor, chances are you are *required* to use it, and for every hour a doctor spends with a patient, they have to spend *two* hours doing clinically useless bureaucratic data-entry on an Epic EHR. -- If you'd like an essay-formatted version of this thread to read or share, here's a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog: https://pluralistic.net/2024/10/02/upcoded-to-death/#thanks-obama 1/
Learned today that Epic systems (creators of the #mychart system you probably use with your doctor) have finally decided to move to the cloud.
With #Google
Yup, you read that right.
