Clinical Transformation
There are many benefits to EMR, but what makes Jefferson's EMR program unique is its inclusion of clinical transformation. empower™ is the initiative by which JUP physicians and staff leverage technology to ensure the "IDEAL" patient experience.
The Plan:
Through empower™, each practice will receive the following personalized attention from our clinical analysts, physician advocates, and EMR sponsors:
- Evaluation of the workflow needs of each individual practice
- Identification of areas of workflow improvement
- Identification, design, and implementation of areas of standardization across practices and departments
- Identification and implementation of best practices in medicine, administration, patient care, and EMR usage.
The Results:
By measuring the above enterprises and adopting our findings into EMR and clinical practice, JUP will be able to:
- Provide a clearinghouse of "best practices" for physicians and staff
- Make certain that EMR is working to its maximum potential for each practice
- Eliminate frustrating tasks, such as looking for misplaced charts
- Provide superior patient care
- Improve quality of life amongst all Jefferson staff
- Decrease liability
- Ensure a gentle transformation to EMR
