EMR Adoption & Rollout
Hospitals in every market are evaluating an EMR or have chosen and are in some stage of implementation. Along with the internal data-center deployment of the EMR, there are significant operational and financial incentives at stake for the hospital to attract as many referring physicians to their EMR system as possible.
Our research estimates a single referring physician can mean as much as $1m annually for a hospital. However, hospital IT departments are under significant resource pressures from legacy IT products, everyday internal support and in many cases the internal EMR deployment.
These challenges and financial ROI opportunities present a significant opportunity for the hospital to roll out their chosen EMR systems to their owned and affiliated physicians. Hielix works with our hospital customers to ensure that individual providers are operationally and technically prepared for the EMR deployment in order to achieve full utilization in the fastest amount of time possible. To facilitate these projects our team focuses on the areas of primary need, including strategic IT planning, clinical workflow assessment, tactical deployment, training and support. Additional benefits for our hospital customers include:
- Speed to implementation & full utilization ensures faster time to revenue from each participating provider.
- Enhanced efficiency for inpatient work flows within the hospital due to increased competency/integration by each individual user.
- Integrated EHR software and clinical workflows ensure long-term revenue generation from participating providers.
