Hi Stefan, can you tell me what your advice was on hyperlinks not working? If I type in hyperlink myself, it works. But if I copy it into Word from a site and try to open it, it doesn't. Here is an example:
The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) has been tracking adoption rates of EHR in hospitals for several
years through its HIMSS Analytics™ program, having access to the vast majority of hospitals in the U.S. They describe an 8-stage model of adoption: from Stage 0 being hospitals that do not have even the 3 key ancillary systems implemented (laboratory, radiology,
and ****) through hospitals that are considered to have a complete EHR, including HIE (Stage 7). Based on a point system, the model is as objective as possible and accounts for degree of adoption by awarding additional points for full adoption across the
hospital, where early implementations may only be adopted on one nursing unit or in one department. Stage 7 and 6 hospitals are identified on the HIMSS web site:

Recently HIMSS added a similar model for ambulatory care, although does not yet have a survey instrument in place to evaluate level
of adoption. Both the hospital and ambulatory care models are illustrated in this
link .
Here is the message I receive when I try to open any link:
