ZDoggMD - EHR State of Mind lyrics

[Verse 1] Yeah I'm out that paper, no more chasing med records Writing so illegible, that I'll be HIPAA foreva Bought the new software, and though we use it here I can't use it over there, different systems everywhere I used to chart on paper, all of my verbals recorded Mix up with the ward clerk, turned “diluted” to “dilaudid” Switched me to that EMR, meaningless abuse, G Now catch me at the nurses station mashin' that F2 key Notes used to be our story, narrative, but yo Replaced with copy paste, now a bloated ransom note Me, I'm at that bedside, focused like a laser beam On the patient, naw come on, I'm treatin' the computer screen 8 dozen warnings, click check boxes Alarm fatigue, vaseline conflicts with doxy?? Nurses they be burned out, we could use some OT Tell by our wrist guards that we most definitely on [Hook 1] EHR, crappy software some vendor made us There's nothing you can do Stuck with EHR Best practice pop ups will tire you Complain and they'll fire you We need a new chart new chart new chart (you're welcome, they built you a turd doc!) [Verse 2] Catch me on the phone with IT beggin' tech support Shoot, it's like IT and me be stuck in 1994 Innovation all around, but it ain't in healthcare Internet and apps for you, but we get ancient software Welcome to that EHR, Go Live and it don't stop Uncle Sam promoted it, but gone is the interop CMS, EMS, PMS, holla back For doctors it ain't fair, these vendors act like they all kinda wack 8 million stories, out there docs can't take it, after this disaster half of y'all won't make it How to train your Dragon: “hotmail” isn't “Hot Male” If some be saying it's epic we sayin' it's epic fail Electronic silo, team not talking Paperless they say, but whole trees we droppin' Props to case management Long live the RT Long live the pharmacist, whole team definitely hates [Hook 2] EHR, just a glorified billing platform With some patient stuff tacked on Give us a new chart ICD-10's a disaster Meet your new robot master We need a new chart, new chart, new chart (this chart wack, welcome to the apocalypse doc) [Verse 3] Tech should bind us, connect, not blind us, to the reason why we care Patient's face reminds us Designs like Epocrates, that tap the app agilely Then magically the team works, let's bite the Apple, Steve Caught up in the in-box, now you're in-sane Good docs gone mad, the clinic's filled with them Nursing, they the heart of everything Data entry got ‘em hurtin', life starts when the shift ends 10 years of school, graduated to the OR Mommy busts a Whipple she deserves a better damn chart Autocorrect turning Chantix into Champion Patient needs a sleeper, 30 clicks for a Ambien [Hook 3] EHR, crappy software some vendor made us There's something you can do Give us a new chart Stand up and make our voices heard Let doctors be doctors We need a new chart new chart new chart (Stand up, the whole team)
