Patient's scanned paper chart in one program
Wanna see images? Different program
Patients data from the ward.. different program.

So lame.

I hear the VA has a top notch program. Everything in one program and.. it works.

Our software also doesn't allow remote access... thanks HIPAA. :(
winter break = sitting in ER figuring out program/doctors handwriting. I wish I could do it from home.
