I'd lay the blame closer to interface engine companies (whose job is often to disambiguate MR#) and individual practices (who don't want the overhead of working with centralized MR# source of truth) since Epic makes an entire EHR and can almost certainly interface with any ADT (admit, discharge, transfer) system as a source of truth for medical records.
