EHRs almost universally suffer from usability problems. people actually love having their medical records available. They hate the UX they have to go through to see them.

The source of the problem is that the people deciding which EHR to use are almost never the people using it. it’s ultimately the CFO or CEO who’s ultimately going to make the call, and they do it based on metrics like price tag or how many accreditation checkboxes it fills, not on user satisfaction scores. Until those user satisfaction numbers make it into CMS guidelines for reimbursement, the situation’s never going to change.
