title: Off to a slow start...
abstract: Challenging common estimates of electronic health record (EHR) adoption among medical group practices, a new comprehensive study by the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) and the University of Minnesota Division of Health Services Research and Policy has found that just 14.1 percent of medical group practices have fully implemented EHR. While the current adoption rate is low, the study also found that growth in EHR adoption over the next two years could be dramatic. Learn the technology outlook for medical groups.
