Join us for this online discussion profiling a regional medical center’s journey to Stage 7 of the EMR adoption phase. The free session will feature David Dawdy, Vice President of Information Technology at the Phelps County Regional Medical Center (PCRMC) and members if his team, who will discuss the center’s experience. The group will offer commentary on the change process, which was accomplished using core technology from FormFast to compliment their MEDITECH Magic system.
PCRMC, a 250-bed facility located in Rolla, Missouri, has recently achieved Stage 6 of EMR adoption and is moving toward Stage 7 —the most comprehensive level of usage identified by the Health Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Analytics’ EMR Adoption Model. This accomplishment puts PCRMC in an elite group of U.S. Hospitals, with only 1.8% of hospitals attaining this level of adoption.
Dawdy and his team will discuss how their process improvements and EMR adoption translates to potential ARRA funds. The June 15th Webinar will also feature discussion of the tools PCRMC used for its EMR adoption: MEDITECH Magic and FormFast. The panel of speakers will field questions from attendees in an open Q&A forum. |

Our current, paper-based health information process wastes hundreds of billions of dollars annually. Transforming this into a streamlined 21st century electronic system will require moving though stages of maturity from paper-challenged environment with no electronic medical record (EMR), to a hybrid image and EMR (within single hospital), and ultimately to the cross provider electronic health record (EHR). Migration is the reality with 60% of providers decades away from full EMR. Forrester's research has found that investment in more basic technologies - E-forms, enterprise content management (ECM), and business process management (BPM) - in light of today's state is the correct path and offers specific steps to migrate to and coexist with EMR systems - whether you are a community, specialty, teaching, or large-scale provider. A three phase maturity model, focused on these more basic technologies, reveals the points of integration, conflicts, and most importantly - what is required to get to the next phase. Emerging requirements that will shape the next three to five years will be highlighted. |
