I would think not - StillAnMT

I do not really think so. The demise started long ago with the advent of digital. I believe that Medicare got the idea that they wanted to audit charts without having to go to each doctor's office, so from that sprung the idea of the electronic medical record. Congress got involved (long, long before President Obama) by starting the process of mandating the EMR. Don't quote me on the Medicare part of this story, but I am sure about Congress starting the process of mandating the EMR years ago.

The Medicare part of the story makes sense to me because, otherwise, why would Congress be involved or care about how a doctor keeps his/her records.
