Format Matters

(Yes, I got my data) But…it came on a disc and my computer no longer has a disc drive so I have no idea what is on it.

It was complete, but displayed as fragmented data, very hard to read even for an experienced clinician.

I do have access to after-visit summaries, but…having the doctor's notes would help me remember details of our discussion.

More patient portals than I can shake a stick [at].

Two binders, 6 discs, 4 patient portals, and still no longitudinal health record.
