The Evolution of EHR Workflows: From Counterintuitive to Intuitive Tools for Care

I recall a patient who was drinking heavily, who I was unable to meaningfully convince to reduce his alcohol consumption.  He felt that his drinking was no different than his work colleagues and that he did not need to make any changes. When his labs returned, not surprisingly, his GGT and AST were elevated.  I turned the screen and showed him the results as well as the upward trending of the result’s graph.

My use of the word ‘ideology’ here is intentional.
