In December 2009, The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) reported in an annual “national ambulatory medical care survey” physicians use of EMR/EHR. The survey asked the question, “Does this practice use electronic medical records or electronic health records (not including billing records)?”  This is a summary of the NCHS findings: Percentage of Physicians Using EMR/EHR (2008 to 2009)
