“Sanford has an EMR. Avera has an EMR. The VA has an EMR. None of the
systems talk to each other. I know for a lot of doctors, that is really

doctors “to spend too much time on clerical work” and “degrade the accuracy
of medical records by encouraging template-generated notes,” according to a
summary from the state medical association.
