You are the person who claimed that it would save 40%. What costs money is the doctor's time spent complying with the EHR requirements, which is outrageous. The average physician today spend 1/2 his work day complying with EHR documentation requirements, which were NOT PRESENT before 2010. And while it was clear up front it would be a terribly bureaucratic mess, even I did not think it would approach the disaster it is today. And the new requirements, effective Jan 1, are just a doubling down. IN 25 years of working with physician's offices, the best service I ever provided was convincing some to avoid EHR, take the ding on Medicare payments and raise fees to make up for it. This is the bullshit the federal bureaucracy brings. Has nothing to do with whether you are billing 1 insurance or 20.
