I just finished reading an article in this week's TIME magazine - a look at a couple of different approaches to providing medical care.
Interesting comparison among UCLA, Mayo and the Cleveland Clinic. A very convincing argument for computerized medical records and the reduction in errors and costs as a result.
UCLA had the highest costs (by almost half!) and no difference in results.
Mayo uses the computerized records to determine "best" treatments.
Good reading...and so much better than whining!
