The document discusses the need for next generation electronic medical records (EMRs) as current EMRs are not delivering hoped-for value and cannot be improved solely by vendors. It proposes a new solution architecture integrating EMRs, telehealth, clinical decision support systems, analytics, and research capabilities to create a learning health system. This system would provide team-based and population care, integrate multiple stakeholders, and accelerate EMR research and development to better address evolving healthcare demands.
