Integrating new clinical decision support tools into EHR systems isn’t usually about the technology.
Yes, some software is easier to integrate than others, but we’ve got smart folks who make it work every day,
The real challenge? Time.
Here’s the thing: time is everything in a busy practice. Physicians are balancing patient care with tighter schedules, and for years, compensation was all about volume—the more patients you saw, the more you earned. Now, the focus is shifting to value—seeing fewer patients, delivering better outcomes, and getting compensated for your valuable work.
It sounds great in theory, but here’s the reality: we’re straddling two canoes. One foot in “volume,” because it still pays the bills, and one foot in “value,” because that’s where healthcare is heading. And let me tell you, it’s hard to balance when the canoes are drifting apart.
The value shift is happening fast, partly because healthcare in the U.S. costs three times more than anywhere else, yet our outcomes don’t reflect that price tag. Patients deserve better, but providers can’t carry that shift alone. We need tools that actually help—not just add to the chaos.
That’s where tools like MedsEngine, LLC come in. Tools that don’t interrupt workflows, that pull the right data and give clear, actionable recommendations. Tools that make value-based care possible without forcing you to sink one of those canoes.
We all want to make a difference, but we also deserve to be compensated for the value we bring. It’s time we had tools to help us do both.
