The study, which included National Electronic Health Records Survey data from 1,368 physicians, found that 68.1 percent of those in physician-owned practices reported being satisfied with their EHRs. Among those in non-physician-owned practices, 58.5 percent reported EHR satisfaction.
Physician-owned practice physicians were also more likely to report adequate staff support for documentation, at 36 percent versus 26.7 percent for non-physician-owned practice physicians, the study found. Nearly 45 percent of physician-owned practice physicians said that time spent on documentation was appropriate, versus 32.4 percent for those in non-physician-owned practices.
