I don't mean to be flippant or unnecessarily mean, but my anecdotal experience is that many EHR systems are pretty widely derided by healthcare providers (i.e. end-users).

Maybe it's not a good thing that only 50 engineers were working on that system.

Doesn't matter to me, I'm not in that industry any more. But yes, they're a mess. But, honestly, I don't know you would make it less of a mess. People just need to accept that some systems are complicated and the more you try and make it less complicated the further from that goal you get.

The primary focus of most US EHRs is for billing.
