Examine the EHR Cost$-$Benefit Analysis table $($found under $1$: Overview & Resources along with this activity document$)$ and answer the following questions. In what year of implementation are the benefits of the eMAR projected to outweigh the costs? By year $5,$ what is the projected annual benefit of the eMAR? Look at the productivity loss line item and explain in words what is anticipated for the loss of productivity during the first five years of the eMAR implementation. Explain why you think this will be the case.
