From the HealthIT.gov website: 

"All referenced national level measures are provided for the most recent period of data in the 'all U.S.' report. All referenced state level measures are provided for the most recent period of data, in addition to at most two years of preceding trend data. State level measures are visualized side-by-side with national level measures for state-specific reports. All of the data is fully accessible, with full data documentation, through the Dashboard."

Breaking Up (With an EHR) Is Hard to Do

But experts say not cutting ties leads to a worse fate.

From the article in For the Record: 

"Lack of sufficient vendor support. Workflow inefficiencies. Changing needs.

The motivations may vary, but more health care organizations seem to be coming to the same conclusion: It’s time for a new EHR. We’re not talking your typical paper-to-electronic transformation either. This is a one-EHR-to-a-hopefully-better-EHR transition.

It’s not as uncommon as one may think. In fact, based on results from a recent survey of 17,000 EHR users in which almost one-quarter of respondents cited enough dissatisfaction with their current system to consider switching to a new EHR vendor, Black Book Rankings is calling 2013 “The Year of the Great EHR Switch.”

What are the contributing factors to EHR disenchantment and, more importantly, what considerations should health care organizations take into account before making such a mammoth decision?"
