Nation-wide outage of Oracle's Federal EHR system raised alarms! This disruption, confirmed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, impacted various agencies, affecting multiple VA medical centers and clinics. While Oracle investigates the cause, contingency measures were swiftly enacted to ensure Veterans continued receiving care. The ongoing challenges with Oracle's EHR rollout underline the need for robust systems in healthcare.

[en] EHR (US): IT vendors and #datamining firms "made billions", little 'value'

"... electronic health records have led to better billing ..." but "hidden costs of installing, maintaining and upgrading systems ... hiring ... retraining ... workforce ..."

No "#privacy and #security ... #unregulated multi-billion-dollar industry #monetizing #patient #data without patients' ... knowledge."

SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 outcomes across mental disorders and the role of sex: A register-based study from Catalonia

sciencedirect.com/science/arti

Highlights
• We found varying risks of infection and severe COVID-19 across mental disorders.
• All mental disorders except stress-related ones showed increased COVID-19 mortality.
• Women with depressive and neurotic disorders were especially vulnerable to COVID-19.

My open-access peer-reviewed article on medical as technical communication came out last week, and I hope others may find it valuable and useful! I argue that looking at actual chart notes can help us to develop and implement curriculum for teaching rhetorical reading and writing principles to providers, thereby positively impacting both and administrative efficiency.

doi.org/10.17077/2151-2957.337

PoroiCharting, Rhetoric, and Technical Communication: Improving Primary-Care Progress Notes and Patient Care through Attention to Audience and PurposeMedical documentation--i.e., charting--is widely known to be crucial for patient care, billing, and legal protection, but it is simultaneously largely viewed as tedious, time-consuming busywork that takes clinicians away from patients, especially in the era of electronic health records (EHRs). There has been excellent but limited research on how writing skills (and thus, explicit writing instruction) influence both the charting experience and charting outcomes (Schryer, 1993; Opel & Hart-Davidson, 2019). In this project, I investigate how progress notes within EHRs could be improved if medical providers had more training in rhetoric and technical writing. Specifically, I focus on primary care, as primary-care providers have been shown to spend the most time on EHRs (Rotenstein et al, 2023). I draw upon a corpus of de-identified primary-care progress notes and the insights of primary-care providers, both sourced from clinics in rural Oregon. My major conclusions are that primary-care providers would benefit from being taught how to write with attention to audience and purpose and that rhetoricians of health and medicine have an opportunity to help improve patient charting.<br>

Ah yes. Cory Doctorow on the enshittification of Epic for health records.

Our health system bought Epic a few years ago. It has been hilarious and frustrating as a non-clinician to see how many conversations along the lines of "what do you mean it can't do that???"

La Quadrature du Net - Mastodon - Media FédéréCory Doctorow (@pluralistic@mamot.fr)Attached: 1 image Epic Systems makes the dominant electronic health record (EHR) system in America; if you're a doctor, chances are you are *required* to use it, and for every hour a doctor spends with a patient, they have to spend *two* hours doing clinically useless bureaucratic data-entry on an Epic EHR. -- If you'd like an essay-formatted version of this thread to read or share, here's a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog: https://pluralistic.net/2024/10/02/upcoded-to-death/#thanks-obama 1/

Got recommended a job working on HL7.

I have resolved HL7 transmission issues before between the on-prem software and associated storage, a caching server at another site, the intermediary interface that routes to cloud EHR... But man what a mess, even with vendors on the call.

Can #machineLearning help new doctors?

Researchers trained #MedRIA on hundreds of thousands of electronic health records containing hundreds of features and over 20 distinct diagnoses.

For *pediatric* diagnoses, a simulated physician-MedRIA collaboration outperformed a simulated physician, which outperformed MedRIA. Emergency diagnoses didn't seem to benefit from MedRIA.
