Healthcare IT Today Interviews

EMR Optimization is a Continuous Process


Listen Later

North Country HealthCare is a highly rated clinical provider running three critical access hospitals in northern New Hampshire. In this video, their CIO Darrell Bodnar describes their on-going efforts to optimize and integrate a new EMR. They have a long-term relationship with tech consulting firm CereCore, represented in this video by Bob Gronberg, their AVP MEDITECH Professional Services.

When it comes to EHR go-lives and optimization, it's hard to reproduce quickly all the features of the previous EMR during an EMR go-live and new features keep coming. Feature lists are too long, so the governance committee has to prioritize what to implement and optimize next. Gronberg warns that many organizations implement "base components" with the intention of coming back later to add more—but actually never do so. Thus, both he and Bodnar say that optimization is an on-going process.
