Kaiser EHR Study Finds Few Patients Exercise Regularly
A study of 1.8 million Kaiser Permanente patients in Southern California between April 2010 and March 2011 found that 86% of patients had their exercise habits included in their electronic health records. However, the study found that only one-third of those patients were meeting national guidelines for physical activity.
