It may come back to the physician, but through the fax machine. An EMR in a hospital or office is not capable of converting paper to digital. This is why most physicians go through a vigorous conversion to digital before even setting up an EMR. Its a costly process and at the end of the day, any work done elsewhere is not able to be put into that PHR.
In reality paper will always exist. Until every doctor uses an interoperable or universal system this is the way things will be. There is no universal EMR at this point nor does it look like there ever will be at this rate. MMR is a system that can connect all of these EMR's and also connect everyone else important.
Please do DD to understand this and do not let stock prices cause your fears......
