Myth Vs. Reality

For Achieving ‘Meaningful Use’ of EHR

Myth #1

The only thing a hospital has to do is upgrade its legacy HIS and it will solve their EHR challenges

Reality

»         The question to ask is -- what is different this time? Is the legacy HIS upgrade/migration new software architecture or applying lipstick on old and tired technology? 

»         Healthcare reform requires new transformational clinical software. Just a face lift will not do it. ‘Meaningful use’ means you will get ARRA rebate based on meaningful usage not just installation

 

 

Myth #2

On average physicians and nurses are content with the current legacy HIS system

Reality

»         This is the same as sticking one foot in boiling water and one foot in cold water and saying….. on average you are feeling nice and warm

»         If your clinical application is not built on intelligent software architecture like ‘Google’ or ‘MSN.com’ then you are putting your clinicians at risk by asking them to work with outdated technology that results in frequent clinical errors and cumbersome workflow.

 

Things to Consider.....

If your current IT vendor has been unable to assist you in clinical transformation within your organization during the last decade, what makes you think your upcoming migration will be any different?

 The best definition of insanity is to keep going back to the same vendor and expecting different results
