CCHIT fee a barrier to smaller EMR firms
Unfortunately, by the time CCHIT is able to determine its process is
hurting the small EMR companies, many will likely cease to exist, as
these companies do not have the capital to survive the "adverse
market
forces" that will result from their failure to obtain certification. For full story, use link below:

What are the alternatives? If you think of this as one person's salary
for 3 or 4 months, it doesn't seem excessive, but it's certainly more
than anyone would pay without expecting some return on investment. for
products that are not open source, it seems logical to cover it with a
licensing fee to vendors, but who is going to pay the fee for an open
source product?
