But that's the way the bureaucracy loves to operate unfortunately.  Have
they ever listened to common sense in the past??

I'm not so sure I want to be a test case but ... Given this is a unique 
situation and to access our EMR the specialist who is referring to me 
has to log onto the server via a terminal session with his/her unique 
username and password and then onto the EMR with his/her unique password 
and the EMR records every keystroke with time and date stamping I was 
hoping this might do.  S'pose there isn't an answer to this one.

Would be nice to hear from an HIC lurker with advice.

How does one go about putting this to them as an option?

It would be a real PITA to have to generate a referral letter in a 
shared EMR, print it out, sign it then give it to your colleague who may 
well be in the next room who sees the patient and submits the paper for 
scanning into the same EMR from who's loins it sprang !!!
