TEXT/PODCAST: Premier MU Library to Aid Members

MU Library to Aid Implementations

Experts from some not-for-profit hospitals have created an EHR Meaningful Use Implementation best-practices library, as part of the Premier healthcare alliance Health Information Technology (HIT) Collaborative. Championed by Bill Spooner, CIO at Sharp HealthCare, and Craig Richardville, CIO for the Carolinas HealthCare System (CHS), the library features specific instruction on ways to speed implementation of CPOE; medication management; clinical documentation; reporting of measures; privacy; information exchange; and management of populations’ health and PHRs. Best practices also include strategies for securing executive leadership, culture change, communication and support for clinicians.
