Getting Your HTM Team Ready for EMR Implementation (Room CC, Hall AB-Booth 850)

We transitioned a healthcare group from one electronic medical record (EMR) vendor to another. Some hospitals did not have medical device connectivity, while others had very detailed connectivity. We will outline our experience with this formidable task, including the challenge of determining the amount of labor needed for such a project. We’ll also talk about the crucial need for effective collaboration, sharing our examples of working with cable installers, network staff, application analysts, and the EMR vendor. All of the information we have collected can be shared with others to help provide a smooth technical integration with a new (or even existing) EMR.
