EHR Implementation: A Step-by-step Guide for the Medical Practice

"A how-to-guide to the process of researching, selecting, negotiating, and implementing an electronic health record"--Provided by publisher.

Physicians and administrators finally have a "real-world" working resource to guide them through the evaluation, selection, negotiation, implementation, and culture management transition to an electronic environment.

The decision to implement electronic health record (EHR) will allow your office to run like a well-oiled machine, freeing physicians and administrators from thinking about day-to-day operations. Regardless of where you are in the electronic health information process, this book is an invaluable asset. You may learn something new about the EHR you've already purchased. If you're in the EHR evaluation process, this book will be your guide.

Early EHR adopters, vendors, and PM consultants explain what works and what doesn't. Learn how to evaluate and map out your workflow - a critical process that will help you select the EHR that's right for your practice. Show your workflow charts to the vendors so that they know how to customize the software for you, rather than customizing it for other practices. You'll also follow a logical and well-defined, step-by-step selection and implementation process.

This resource is also designed to be a working document loaded with flow charts, graphs, checklists, and clear implementation steps to help you research, select, negotiate, and implement an EHR in your medical practice.
