The process of adopting and implementing electronic health records (EHR) requires change by all individuals working in a practice. Communication, involvement and planning for “change” are critical to effective utilization. The HealthPOINT team can assist you in preparing for change and communicating the plan to your staff before, during and after you begin implementing the EHR into your workflow. Communication is an important part of this transition throughout the process and Change Management may be needed at different stages by different stakeholders. We can assist you at all levels of your organization no matter what stage you are in on your journey to Meaningful Use.
Our team can help you communicate the need for change, include the right members of your staff, assist your organization in understanding the reason for and the goals of the change, create a plan and facilitate involvement from your staff.
