Optimize your EMR for Orthopedics: Essential Strategies that Drive Physician Happiness

Описание: By this point in time, approximately 80 percent of orthopedic practices and health systems have made conversions to electronic medical records. Regardless of the vendor, the change is always challenging, and creates problems that are magnified in high volume and high margin specialties like orthopedics. The implementation of an electronic medical record should drive your practice or department to adapt, and subsequently adopt new mechanisms of service delivery. These changes not only help your practice or department meet the challenges created by the electronic medical record, but will also help prepare you for the challenges of tomorrow.
