Electronic Health Record
Full-Service EHR Specialists
Analysis, Optimization, Implementation and Activation
The Electronic Health Record (EHR) is the most critical technology tool in your healthcare organization. It is the linchpin to both providing patient care and ensuring financial stability. Whether you want to switch to a new EHR system or level up and optimize your existing platform, a smooth and flawless transition is vital to your organization’s success.
How can we help?
Situational Analysis
We can evaluate your current EHR and determine if it is able to meet the current and future needs of your organization. If there are critical functionalities that your system cannot provide, we make a recommendation on exactly what steps need to be taken to upgrade your existing EHR or transition to a new platform.
EHR Optimization
Many organizations have a powerful EHR in place but are not utilizing its functionality to its fullest capacity. In attacking the learning curve of going live, there’s often not enough time or resources to identify ways to maximize its potential.
MedFirst will evaluate your EHR and tailor it to your organizational needs. The EHR is designed to be a fluid tool that can adapt to changes in regulatory procedures, compliance protocols, and treatment innovations. We use our operational and technical expertise to review your EHR, your workflows, and the current healthcare landscape to marry your system to your needs.
EHR Implementation
Seamless implementation of your EHR ensures continuity of care for your patients and financial stability of your organization. But this is no easy task. Implementing a new EHR involves large organizational changes, training of staff and physicians, and overcoming significant compliance and regulatory hurdles. When the stakes are this high, it’s imperative to have a skilled and experienced team lead you through it. That’s why healthcare organizations large and small rely on MedFirst.
Training and Activation
The EHR fundamentally changes how your staff operates at all levels, and orchestrating the training necessary for a flawless Go-Live can be overwhelming. MedFirst has the tools, methodologies, and expertise to train entire organizations on any of the major EHR systems, including Epic, Allscripts, Cerner, Meditech, Siemens and more.
MedFirst provides at-the-elbow instruction onsite as well as online resources and support from training and Go-Live through steady-state and optimization. We dedicate the proper resources for your specific departments and applications, including 24/7 Go-Live Coordinators who provide immediate backup support onsite. We also prepare your support schedule and make recommendations for staff allotment, as well as conduct training sessions to transfer workflow, processes and procedures to support resources.
We have the capability and experience to implement a phased approach or a “flip the switch” Go-Live, onsite or virtually or a hybrid of both, to fit the needs of your organization.
