Really insightful post and I agree with many of the statements you have stated. I do wonder, though, where you see it going with more “specialized” sections of pharmacy. For example, it looks like there’s still a preference in the market for third-party drug diversion applications, third-party investigational drug management systems, and third-party specialty pharmacy software (maybe not so much in the Epic side for that one, though). I’m part of some of these rollouts and it’s been very difficult to integrate because these workflows are so specialized that the EHR isn’t equipped to handle them, and I wonder when we will see the EHR vendors pretty much hire out people to build these modules in-house that can address the complicated workflows. Curious about your thoughts?
