How does the providers interaction with the computer interfere with the providers interaction with the patient? Written by Kenneth Berka, MD, Vice President of Physician Clinical Integration, Mercy December 31, 2012 How does the rise of computers in exam rooms impact patient care?

Providers can share information with patients by showing the patient the computer screen Patient Centered Care
