1. | 11/12/2007 7:52:00 PM | Don't know |
2. | 11/12/2007 8:57:00 PM | possibly |
3. | 11/14/2007 1:41:00 PM | not allowed in my country as posted above |
4. | 11/14/2007 4:49:00 PM | may be time factor |
5. | 11/14/2007 5:00:00 PM | Probably |
6. | 11/14/2007 5:19:00 PM | depends on the emr |
7. | 11/14/2007 5:30:00 PM | I'm not sure hwo it would interface with the workflow |
8. | 11/14/2007 7:48:00 PM | it will not reduce my paper chars because it does not prevent from keeping them. Fax a huge paper MR might be very time consumming.... it is the patient to do so |
9. | 11/14/2007 8:49:00 PM | I don't know what is involved in "become a subscriber" but other than that i would probably say Yes. |
10. | 11/15/2007 1:37:00 AM | see 15 |
11. | 11/15/2007 4:29:00 PM | again, only if I am clearly operating under HIPAA compliance with this system. |
12. | 11/15/2007 8:04:00 PM | Would not necessarily reduce paper charts |
13. | 11/19/2007 2:00:00 PM | Again I have other legal precedents to follow. |
14. | 11/19/2007 2:36:00 PM | mybe |
15. | 11/19/2007 3:58:00 PM | perhaps in the future when I am confident the bugs are worked out |
16. | 11/19/2007 10:40:00 PM | Maybe - nothing is free - depends on time commitment to FAX/scan records and reliability of system |
17. | 11/20/2007 3:14:00 PM | In most instaces I weould |
18. | 11/22/2007 5:48:00 PM | It's not free if I have to pay for staff time to do the faxing, plus wear and tear on the fax machine. |
19. | 11/22/2007 5:55:00 PM | Very time consuming without reimbursement |
20. | 11/22/2007 5:59:00 PM | maybe |
21. | 11/22/2007 6:01:00 PM | Would consider |
22. | 11/22/2007 6:05:00 PM | maybe |
23. | 11/22/2007 6:14:00 PM | I am not sure |
24. | 11/22/2007 6:28:00 PM | As a pediatrician, we are already significantly under-resourced by payers, relative to adult and specialty physicians. There would be no way to afford it...you say it is free, but that is to the patient. The time and direct cost to our practice, since this likely would not be a paid service, would take away funds used for patient care. |
25. | 11/22/2007 6:37:00 PM | need to know more about the system |
26. | 11/22/2007 6:59:00 PM | Yes if the system made that decision. |
27. | 11/22/2007 7:20:00 PM | maybe. need to look at the system |
28. | 11/22/2007 7:23:00 PM | maybe |
29. | 11/22/2007 8:17:00 PM | unless not compatible with Epic system |
30. | 11/22/2007 8:40:00 PM | Once again, faxes are images, not data. Reviewing and recovering DATA from faxed images only displaces the responsibility for physical maintenance of the record. I become dependent upon electronic communications without the workflow benefits above. Again, a Level 2 record vs a Level 5 record. (Medical Record Institute). |
31. | 11/22/2007 8:56:00 PM | it depends on the nature of the documents |
32. | 11/22/2007 9:19:00 PM | but I would still keep my copy, thus not reducing paper charts. |
33. | 11/22/2007 9:36:00 PM | maybe |
34. | 11/22/2007 11:37:00 PM | I have too many locations to go looking for records now, why would I want another unstructured location? |
35. | 11/23/2007 12:29:00 AM | Not currently as I am not familiar enough with the software and I doubt my current hardware would support such a system. |
36. | 11/23/2007 12:48:00 AM | not certain |
37. | 11/23/2007 12:49:00 AM | Guaranteed access and retention provisions haven't been mentioned. |
38. | 11/23/2007 1:09:00 AM | unsure |
39. | 11/23/2007 1:16:00 AM | .There would be some costs involving that process eventhough the sofware was free. I would want to be reimbursed for those costs. |
40. | 11/23/2007 1:20:00 AM | no |
41. | 11/23/2007 2:16:00 AM | same as above, even if a pt requested, if I did not have EMR it would be too time consuming |
42. | 11/23/2007 3:23:00 AM | unsire at this time |
43. | 11/23/2007 3:40:00 AM | Hard to trust this: If HealthVault went off-line, I could be liable for failure to maintain records. What if the pt disagreed with something I wrote and removed the document? I would be willing to submit, but not to delete my copy. |
44. | 11/23/2007 3:42:00 AM | It would cost $$ to fax all those records. |
45. | 11/23/2007 4:18:00 AM | perhaps |
46. | 11/23/2007 7:34:00 AM | n/a |
47. | 11/23/2007 8:22:00 AM | too many questions wrapped up in this. If the patient asked me to trasmit my work product to their personal record i would do it. |
48. | 11/23/2007 1:16:00 PM | We employ a service that takes care of that for us |
49. | 11/23/2007 2:11:00 PM | Too much of an administrative burden without obvious/immediate benefit to my office |
50. | 11/23/2007 2:15:00 PM | see #16 |
51. | 11/23/2007 2:20:00 PM | see other comments above including time needed to use system |
52. | 11/23/2007 2:30:00 PM | There would need to be a fee to cover staff time to fax the material. |
53. | 11/23/2007 2:39:00 PM | This would be very time intensive |
54. | 11/23/2007 3:35:00 PM | Probably, but will need to further evaluate the service. |
55. | 11/23/2007 3:57:00 PM | Not until I had discussed my concerns about secondary and tertiary password recipients. And perhaps not even then. |
56. | 11/23/2007 4:27:00 PM | not sure |
57. | 11/23/2007 5:01:00 PM | Possibly, but would need to evaluate the security and other uses of the system |
58. | 11/23/2007 5:24:00 PM | It depends on how much time this take from myself or my staff. |
59. | 11/23/2007 6:00:00 PM | yes |
60. | 11/23/2007 6:04:00 PM | do not know |
61. | 11/23/2007 6:59:00 PM | Because FAX'ing is not currently secure, and because we currently do not routinely create paper documents from our EMR |
62. | 11/23/2007 7:06:00 PM | I need more information about specific system |
63. | 11/23/2007 7:30:00 PM | Provided it is for review and does not obligate me to switch automatically into the system without trying and liking it. |
64. | 11/23/2007 9:05:00 PM | my staff time is not FREE for doing this |
65. | 11/23/2007 10:59:00 PM | Not my decision. The practice plan business administrators make those decsions. |
66. | 11/24/2007 12:24:00 AM | not sure |
67. | 11/24/2007 12:39:00 AM | Provided I had everyone's permission. |
68. | 11/24/2007 12:49:00 AM | concern over faxing |
69. | 11/24/2007 2:07:00 AM | not sure |
70. | 11/24/2007 2:18:00 AM | probably |
71. | 11/24/2007 4:27:00 AM | Couldn't depend on Microsoft to continue to support ANY product with the original terms of service. Just try asking them a question about DOS... |
72. | 11/24/2007 5:37:00 AM | It can't possibly be free if I or my employees have to do anything to make it work. |
73. | 11/24/2007 6:58:00 AM | ONLY IF IT WERE HASSLE FREE. IF I HAVE TO EXPEND TIME AND ENERGY, I WOULD RATHER NOT. |
74. | 11/24/2007 12:48:00 PM | Would HealthVault or the patient pay to scan the documents. I can't make a living with the current system of paperwork. |
75. | 11/24/2007 1:51:00 PM | It may be free but this would not be without cost---the patient would be billed for my office staff's time and phone/fax charges |
76. | 11/24/2007 3:03:00 PM | Free is operative word - I would have to pay a staff member to upload all of this |
77. | 11/24/2007 3:29:00 PM | depends |
78. | 11/24/2007 3:35:00 PM | Someone has to pay for the time it takes to do this. Who is going to do that, the insurer, patient, government ? |
79. | 11/24/2007 4:48:00 PM | may be. |
80. | 11/24/2007 5:51:00 PM | Maybe, it depends on all involved specialists getting on board |
81. | 11/24/2007 6:08:00 PM | cost involved to fax |
82. | 11/24/2007 7:12:00 PM | Probably |
83. | 11/24/2007 9:17:00 PM | maybe |
84. | 11/25/2007 1:37:00 AM | It requires a new level of medical support (to track and fax all such records) and it would not reduce my paper medical charts as I would still need to maintain them as the "source" record. |
85. | 11/25/2007 1:38:00 AM | would consider it |
86. | 11/25/2007 1:55:00 AM | It wouldn't be free, I'd be paying somebody to do the faxing. |
87. | 11/25/2007 2:53:00 AM | I would do it and charge a service fee. Faxing records to Microsoftis not a covered service. My Medicar fees are about to be cut 10% which is a 30% cut in my gross. Why should I provide additional services for nothing??? |
88. | 11/25/2007 3:57:00 AM | Possibly |
89. | 11/25/2007 4:33:00 PM | what about cost for staff time to search, retrieve, and fax the records? |
90. | 11/25/2007 6:03:00 PM | only for those that ask |
91. | 11/25/2007 8:13:00 PM | not sure |
92. | 11/26/2007 1:08:00 AM | may be-very time consuming and costly to accomplish |
93. | 11/26/2007 2:04:00 AM | Who pays for the staff time to fax all of this in? |
94. | 11/26/2007 3:25:00 AM | Work for a corporation who would have to agree to subscribe |
95. | 11/26/2007 3:35:00 AM | not sure |
96. | 11/26/2007 4:17:00 AM | I would provide them with the records and let them fax it if they wanted but would prefer not to do so directly as I would continue to use our own EMR system |
97. | 11/26/2007 11:04:00 AM | faxing is not free and consumes staff time, ties up the fax machine, etc |
98. | 11/26/2007 12:25:00 PM | My institution would not allow it. |
99. | 11/26/2007 2:28:00 PM | I'll still have to keep my copies |
100. | 11/26/2007 6:05:00 PM | I generally give my patients paper copies of their records, I would let them fax it. |
101. | 11/26/2007 9:42:00 PM | I would ask the patient to fax their own records. |
102. | 11/27/2007 12:57:00 AM | too late; already have an EMR |
103. | 11/27/2007 1:16:00 AM | maybe |
104. | 11/27/2007 1:42:00 AM | maybe |
105. | 11/27/2007 3:55:00 AM | Would comply with their request but not eliminate other records |
106. | 11/27/2007 1:06:00 PM | not at this time |
107. | 11/27/2007 10:17:00 PM | n/a |
108. | 11/28/2007 12:41:00 AM | maybe |
109. | 11/29/2007 5:24:00 AM | NA |
110. | 11/29/2007 9:17:00 PM | See #9 |
111. | 11/30/2007 12:13:00 AM | For a fee- our employee time is important and costs and our equiptment (including microsoft products) is not free |
112. | 11/30/2007 1:51:00 PM | Would not reduce paper charts, unsure of security then who patient grants access to chart info and when |
