Topic of Discussion:
"EMR implementation presents various challenges. While some can obviously relate to technical issues, many relate to people and processes. Implementation in the clinic setting can be quite different than the hospital setting. This presentation will discuss ambulatory EMR implementation from the perspective of clinicians. Wins, losses, and paths to consider avoiding will be addressed."
