The REC Theme Song

Dr. Ross D. Martin, MD, MHA, FACMI performed the world premier of "The REC Theme Song" at the ONC All-Grantee Conference in Washington, DC on December 13th, 2010.  Stay tuned for more...

You're seein’ patients in your practice and they constantly berate it
They say to make the grade you’ll have to interoperate it
But you don't have a clue about the Internet at all
You couldn't tell a portal from a hole in the wall
You wallow in despair – when in walks a crew
Packin' Pen Tablets and tech attitudes
They say, "Tired of pushin' paper – is connecting your dream?
We're here to take the caper – we're the REC Team."

They whip out their BlackBerrys, tap a key or two and say
"Put your mind at ease – we know just what to do.
We’re all workin’ where technology and medicine meet
We cruise the information superhighway beat
Meaningful use is not a problem – we can promise you that
We'll help you get incentive bucks in no time flat
Once we plan, select and implement, you’ll be good to go
When it comes to goin’ paperless, there’s just one name to know ’cause…

CHORUS:
You can call a grease monkey to fix your radiator
If you need to slay a lion better call a gladiator
You gotta lift a boulder – Superman's your guy
And call Double-Oh-Seven if you're needin' a spy
But if you want to see your practice be the best of them all
There's only one name out there you need to recall
To click the hyperlink to your EHR dream
Forget about them others – call the REC team

You get set, go live and watch the patients come in
It doesn't take long to know you've got a big win
You add up your savings and you see the numbers soar
Your patients see the quality – you couldn't ask for more
You get kudos and congratulations from everyone
You say, "Thanks, REC Team, for all that you've done"
They say, "Glad to be your partner – you can call any day
We're always at your service 'cause we mean it when we say that...

REPEAT CHORUS
...We said to pitch all those charts and build a practice supreme
Call the plugged in, pixilated, powered up, automated
Integratin', implementin’, strategizin', synchronizin'
Standardized, databased, webified, interfaced
Just-in-time REC Team!
