    “The time and resources needed to implement a new health care information system can vary considerably based on the scope of the project, the needs and complexity of the organization, the number of applications being installed, and the number of user groups involved.” (Wager, Lee, & Glaser, 2009). The first part in implementing a system is to first assign a team of professionals within the organization. The responsibility and role of the team would be to plan, coordinate, budget, and manage the new system set up. The team should determine what the objectives and goals of the new system should be. After this the next step is to develop and implement the process. Some major steps should include how long each activity should take, resources and budget, and ways to alleviate completion and success. Components of an implementation plan are workflow and analysis, system installation, staff training, conversion, communication, and a go-live date. The size and needs of an organization is what determines the type of system that will be needed.…

    We gathered our information from a study conducted through surveys, and direct observation at INOVA hospital. INOVA hospital currently uses electronic medical record (EMR) system, however it is a first generation system, and lacks an integrated system through the hospital. Our findings showed this occurred because of early adoption of this technology and lack of planning when implementing the old system. In the old system, the departments are not connected to a central database. This creates the need to print medical records for transfer between departments, which causes errors, slow response time, increased cost, longer wait time, and redundancy of data.…

    One of the goals of the management team at Torrington Health and Rehabilitation Center is that of productivity. As the facility becomes more automated through the use of the EMR system tasks such as filing and pulling physicians orders for renewal and documentation redundancies on multiple forms will no longer be labor intensive. Gathering data for chart audits to determine code status, new physician orders, and completion and accuracy of assessments can all be done with ease. The management team would also like to implement the technology with an interface to the business office. Billing and reimbursement can improve and stream line compliance with skilled nursing facility regulations such as the minimum data set, and Medicare, and Medicaid. The time needed to gather data for additional documentation requests from Medicare and Medicaid will also be reduced.…

    The selection and implementation of and Electronic Medical Record system should not be taken lightly. It is a challenging process and implementation is a long-term commitment. It is important to select an EMR based on the goals of the organization. Most organizations number one priority is always patient care and safety; so the first thing we will want to look at is this feature in an EMR.

Technical support, time it will take to implement, and cost also need to be taken into consideration.

Today’s skilled nursing facility is dependent upon computer and information systems to run practically every aspect of the organization.
