“Yada Yada”
"The Yada Yada" is the 153rd episode of the American NBC sitcom Seinfeld. The 19th episode of the eighth season, it aired on April 24, 1997. “Yada Yada” is boring or empty talk listening to a lot of yada yada about the economy —often used interjectionally especially in recounting words regarded as too dull or predictable to be worth repeating.

Jerry and George said it best. Yada Yada
Despite the recurrent, endless problems with the Electronic Health Record and it’s desire to control human behavior (unlikely), we will continue to occasionally inform, amuse or relate to human user.
Xpress Technologies Electronic Health Record/Practice Management were designed for the provider to lessen their burden of the workload.
