Objective 1: Distinguish the proven benefits from the hype
Benefit: Simple clinical reminders such as flu vaccine, pneumonia vaccine, annual pap smear
Hype: Clinical decision support by itself improves outcomes
Objective 2: Learning from failures to get to success
Success depends on clearly understanding the relationships of clinic culture, office space, hardware and environmental infrastructure, software selected and implementation.
Objective 3: Establish clear, manageable expectations of an EHR
Must balance initial additional cognitive effort to realize longer term benefits to patient care
Objective 4: Formulate an EHR Implementation roadmap for your practice
Establish the goal for your practice and don’t allow scope creep
