EMR Review
- Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are a growing part of physician practice and contribute to medical errors.
- They are often controlled by the owner hospital corporations or private non-clinical owners of practices, and may not be aligned with optimum care.
- Often times, issues with EMR functionality are identified that impact patient safety, and not fixed by the hospital management, putting providers at the mercy of hospital policy.
- We can identify errors in an EMR, barriers to effective charting and documentation, and potentially causation by the hospital.
- Our expert is a trained super-user for all major electronic medical record platforms, and has served on EMR clinical implementation and advisory committees for 3 large national hospital corporations.
- Today more than ever, medical decisions are being dictated by EMR limitations, hospital policies, poorly-aligned incentives, and hospital-provider contracted metrics, which can greatly impact a physician’s ability to safely practice.
