Has anyone been given any direction on where we are headed for the long term? Particularly for field based APPs?

The direction we are headed is into the toilet.
@OP p.s. if you want more info on what I’m talking about, just try sending documentation through any old portal next time your at a provider office.
While you’re there, ask the nurses what they think about the Epic systems co-owned by the parent company - or just Epic in general - and how much time it takes from doing their actual work.
Just an example for you to get a feel for where they claim they are going with this: nothing innovative to see there. Just less boots & the ground under the guise of “care delivery” which it isn’t. It’s a fiasco & no one should have to do it along with the labor of running a broke down ER, partially inside the ambulance garage, with volunteers running triage to mitigate the abject chaos.
I’m so tired of people wondering about “what they’re gonna do if they get fired” on this thread.
What do folks think they are gonna do when they can’t - literally CAN’T - get onto the operating table quick enough?
Cuz that’s where we’re at. Count your lucky stars it isn’t you or your loved ones who got turned away and died by the river or another overdose in the near 3-year period that the only detox center serving a quarter of a mil ppl was shut down.
Count your lucky stars. But don’t be a damn fool thinking it CANT be you.
The existing tech this company owns & operates is rife with vulnerabilities & endless problems.
They’re designing obsolescence. A detraction from the horrifyingly byzantine conduits that fundamentally serve no purpose in a health care system at all but to turn a profit. The rest is smoke and mirrors.
Good care starts in the community you live in. We used to have some around here before they got seized in some vertical integration malarkey. You should see the Ambulance unit in my hometown meantime, after the company & their compatriots shut the doors elsewhere. It looks like a war zone. It’s despicable. People are dying, underserved, validly upset and thronging now in their insolence. It scares the sh-t out of them and they don’t want to talk about it.
So they launched an app that has no way of helping for sh-t. Why? Because it was never meant to. That’s why they keep shuffling the cards on the upper deck & just letting sh-t fall.
Between the funny math, the lies, and the firing squads - well, the app ain’t sh-t. Just more designed complexity to distract them and apparently most of yall too. The company is fundamentally incapable of delivering a secure and safe app & they know it.
That’s it folks. That’s the bottom line.
