Washington Post: EMR's No Cure-All; Sen. Grassley Sends Letter of Inquiry to health IT vendors

Senator Grassley has sent a letter out to ten major health IT vendors seeking information on health IT problems and flaws. The letter can be retrieved from this link (PDF) at the Washington Post. Read the whole thing.

It is linked via a Washington Post story "Electronic medical records not a cure-all", Sunday Oct. 25, 2009, by staff writer Alexi Mostrous. The WaPo article itself seems to require registration. I will comment on the article in future posts.

Addendum 10/25: I have now commented on the article here.
