And so, sure, you know, how do you know?
if it's making a recommendation to the doctor or increasingly to the patient, uh because you're gonna see more and more of these tools that are kind of direct to consumer, it's making a recommendation that you should really get treatment X.
I mean, how do you know that company that makes treatment X isn't
sponsoring that.
Yeah.
I you know, that's a risk with electronic health records in general.
I mean, there's already some decision support in the EHR, so it could already be happening.
But I think the chances of it being, you know, sort of happening at scale are greater as the AI becomes more ubiquitous and we just get used to it telling us what to do.
Uh so there's gonna have to be some rules and regulations about that.
Yeah, I w I guess I'll ask you that question.
If if if we could go back to paper charts, would you do it?
So yeah, I mean it they're net they are net positive.
It's easy to to to focus on the negatives.
There's no question that care is better and practice is better.
But I think we did not understand
It's not that there's inherently anything wrong with the electronic health record, although they're certainly not perfect.
They're they're not great digital tools when compared against things that we're used to in the rest of our lives.
But what the what we didn't understand was the electronic health record as an enabler of a whole bunch of other stuff.
So the complaining that I used to hear at UCS of Health about the documentation burden, which I do think is going to be largely solved by the
uh digital scribes now has been mostly replaced by complaining about the electronic health record inbox.
