The Debate on Accessing EMR
This is a series of discussions that you don’t want to miss if you play a role in the IT decisions at your hospital!
In Part 1 of the series, you will hear Dr. Michael Westcott, CMIO at Alegent Health and Imprivata’s CTO, David Ting, discuss and debate the transition from paper-based medical records to electronic medical records (EMR). Patient data security needs to be improved, and compliance mandates need to be met. Could it slow down the productivity of the clinicians who are always on the go and are constantly logging into desktops and workstations across the hospital? In addition, IT professionals have valid concerns that it will affect their bottom line and the resources necessary to implement the current security requirements. Can the adoption of EMR morph into a positive experience for all?
Dr. Westcott and David Ting will explore:
• Tactics for increasing EMR adoption among clinicians
• Strategies for improving clinician speed and efficiency
• Perspectives on enabling true follow-me desktops
