Every user I’ve heard coming from a Cerner facility has said that Cerner is an unmitigated disaster.

It almost makes sense that the only way to get a customer was to essentially lobby and force your way into a government contract for it, and it’s still an unmitigated disaster.

My heart goes out to those that are going to get fucked over by this piss-poor deployment and be actually, physically harmed by bad EMR decisions and implementation choices.

Every single time I've heard about an org onboarding Cerner, it was a disaster. One wonders how they can possibly still be in business.
Oracle acquired them. So, now you have the full power of Oracle standing behind them to convince customers to adopt it, and the same power to keep customers from migrating.
Nobody got fired from buying Oracle
