EMR/EHR out of control

I'm new to the site, and new to online discussions, so be patient with me.

Anyone else having trouble with their hospital's new systems? We are having to enter the same information in three different systems. My team is just starting the abstraction for core measures and are finding that the information in the different systems aren't always the same.

Are we the only ones doing this? I'm tearing my hair out.

    Our computer system is slow, awkward and redundant. Different parts don't interface together and when they upgrade the old health history doesn't interface with the new system, wasting everyone's time asking patients info that should be in the new system. Too cheap to have computers in every patient rooms and low battery life always going dead, freezing on you and losing all the info, scanners don't work well alot of the time. Very frustrating and time wasting! Who designs these crappy systems!

    Laptops are so cheap nowadays there really is no excuse not to spend the money to have one for each room!

    I'm really starting to worry about the potential impact to patient care and to our core measures. The hospital had to put in a different system in ER to meet "meaningful use" and I'm finding important information like patient allergies, are not the same in the ER system and in the main system. Does anyone else see a problem with this? We look in all the different systems when we are abstracting, but I know that no one else does - half of them don't even have access to both systems.
