Check out US President (not yet, but he might as well be) Obama's video blog of his Economic Recovery Plan. He's going to make sure that all US hospitals and doctors' offices are outfitted with EMRs and are connected to each other (3:50 on the video).
EMR and connectivity are part of his core plan. "Cut red tape, prevent medical mistakes and help save billions of dollars each year..." Looks like his administration gets it.
Who would have thought the American health care system would be showing us the way on this?
