| Ensure ambulatory implementation success |
| Editor's note: This is the first of a two-part series. Part two will appear in the November EHRB.
If you're preparing to implement EHRs in an ambulatory setting, be sure to lay the proper groundwork first. From planning the implementation and experimenting with systems to assessing readiness and transitioning from paper to electronic records, successful implementation requires thorough preparation and a willingness to evolve, say Laura Jantos, FHIMSS, principal of ECG Management Consultants in Seattle, and Salvatore Volpe, MD, FAAP, FACP, CHCQM, president of Oakwood Medical Consultants in Staten Island, NY. Jantos and Volpe spoke at the May Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society virtual conference. |
