Achieve better patient outcomes by streamlining EMR workflows
Studies show that EMR systems can inadvertently extend the time required for patient management. EMR providers like Epic address this problem by developing tools designed to optimize these workflows. Resources such as the Epic Galaxy, Epic Community Library, and Epic SmartUser Program empower clinicians with knowledge on how to utilize these tools effectively — however, identifying and implementing new strategies for EHR improvement can be time-consuming.
Our mission is to simplify the process of leveraging EMR tools for managing patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). We've developed an Epic-focused roadmap that includes comprehensive explanations of how these tools can improve patient outcomes, tipsheets and instructional videos for using them, and guides to assist HealthIT teams in scaling EMR improvement strategies.
