Would it be simpler to print to a PDF, export to the top N formats for
EMR data interchange, write a README for the EMR user's tech to look
at, and encrypt it all to removable media?

For CDs you could create a run-on-insert program that does something
simple like open the encrypted PDF (stored separately for
simplicity?), so the non-tech savy user could trivially enter the
credentials you provide through an auxiliary channel.

The people who actually know what EMR software is can find the README
(or be pointed to it by the same startup app, potentially) and follow
those directions for their required interchange format.

I'd be happy with a PDF on CD - and I'd actually rather have it
unencrypted if that's allowable, since I'd only need to track one
thing (the CD) and not that + a password.  This seems no less secure
than paper, but HIPAA may disagree.
