Integrated Electronic Health Records: A Worktext for Greenway Medical Technologies' PrimeSUITE

Integrated Electronic Health Records: An Online Course and Worktext for Greenway Medical Technologies' PrimeSUITE®.

Developed as a comprehensive learning resource, this hands-on course is offered through McGraw-Hill’s Connect Plus. Connect Plus uses the latest technology and adaptive learning techniques to better connect professors to their students, and students to the information and customized resources they need to master a subject. It includes a variety of digital learning tools that enable professors to easily customize courses and allow students to learn and master content and succeed in the course.

Here’s what you can expect from the Worktext:

-A book meant to complement the online Connect Plus course, written by an author with an extensive HIM/HIT background—Beth Shanholtzer, MAEd, RHIA.

-Coverage of Greenway Medical Technologies’ PrimeSUITE, an ONC-ATCB-Certified, fully-integrated, online EHR, PM and interoperability solution. The book is not meant to be an extensive user manual for PrimeSUITE, but rather it covers the key topics for EHR, with PrimeSUITE as the vehicle to demonstrate those topics. Attention is paid to providing the “why” behind each task so that the reader can accumulate transferable skills.

-Content that will be appealing to HIM programs, HIT programs, MIBC programs and more. All exercises are designated with PM, EHR, HIM tags, or some combination of those three. Instructors can access a correlation of the Worktext’s Learning Outcomes to the key accrediting bodies such as CAHIIM, ABHES and CAAHEP via the book’s website, www.mhhe.com/greenway.
