We can't even get tests kits. I saw 3 pts already today who I would have tested if I was able to. We truly have no idea of the true numbers. Heck, I'm running out of masks and I'm having a hard time to even get a quick delivery. Forget about the bigger equipment. It's not there!

We've spent billions to drive adoption of #healthIT, but patient data isn't flowing between systems as needed. Many doctors today are still recording their notes on paper & faxing patient records. This needs to change. #axethefax #NHITweek
