He told me he did know some older docs who got one look at the computer system and decided they needed to either practice somewhere else or retire. But he personally doesn't know how he would get by without the technology. If the system is ever offline for some reason, he feels a little lost.
So the technology needs to improve, yes (and some systems need to improve more than others), but there is also a generational change at work. Some doctors have figured out how to make the technology work for them rather than the other way around.
