One of the lessons learned for us around IT was we have what's called Rover devices. Think of it like an iPhone that allows you to track in real time. So you're in the EMR in real time and you're able to document, you're able to consent patients. These handheld devices save a lot of time, rather than using a laptop. We partnered with Verizon and this was one of the most critical pieces of the entire mass vaccination event.

The digitization of healthcare has actually added complexity to the physician's day. The primary element of healthcare should be the visit between patient and doctor, whether it’s online, a call or whether they come in. With the advent of EMRs, we now have a third element in the room. A computer that actually interrupts, that relationship because the doctor's sitting there typing on a computer instead of looking at that person.
