Healthcare going green

Saturday, December 1st, 2007

Did you ever think how many trees are mowed down each year to supply paper for the healthcare industry? Doctors at George Washington University Medical Faculty Associates in Washington, D.C. estimate that converting to a fully electronic medical record system is saving about 2000 pieces of paper per physician per year. Assuming that figure is correct and assuming 700,000 or so physicians practicing in the US; converting 100 percent of docs to electronic records could save 1.4 billion pieces of paper each year. According to howstuffworks an average tree yields about 80,000 sheets of paper. Therefore, if every doctor in America was fully electronic, according to the figures provided, we could save about 17,500 trees a year! And that's just from American doctors who go electronic. Imagine India and if the entire industry went that way!
