When the federal government began providing billions of dollars in incentives to push hospitals and physicians to use electronic medical and billing records, the goal was not only to improve efficiency and patient safety, but also to reduce health care costs.

Robert Burleigh was overbilled for an emergency-room visit because the hospital’s electronic records included examinations he had not been given.

Mr. Burleigh keeps a spreadsheet of the charges and payments for his overbilled emergency room visit.

But, in reality, the move to electronic health records may be contributing to billions of dollars in higher costs for Medicare, private insurers and patients by making it easier for hospitals and physicians to bill more for their services, whether or not they provide additional care.
