It is a mess today trying to figure out which medical records system might be right for you, and there are many evaluation methods available, but if you are a physician, the evaluation by an IT firm might still leave you in a quandary. It’s about as confusing as trying to look at a line by line comparison of doctors or hospitals.  Since the list was published there have also been a couple mergers and acquisitions as well, so you might be better off to work with a consultant or ask other physicians as to what they use and what choices they have made. 

One example from Medical Economics is Eric Fishman, which you have seen mentioned around here before and he is a doctor with a physician’s viewpoint.
