I am new to the IT and informatics scene, but it does seem to me that healthcare IT is inconsistent....and that going from paper to technology and back and forth is a waste of precious time, and time that could be spent on patient care. There must be an easier solution. I believe this is just a transition period as we are moving away from a paperless world. It's just the dangers of technology on privacy and confidentiality are still a little scary to me. Technology is only growing bigger and better....and we must find a way to use it efficiently and safely.
