Workflow analysis in primary care: implications for EHR adoption.

Full Abstract

Within busy practice settings, it is difficult to provide adequate provider training on evolving electronic health record (EHR) functionality. As a result, providers may not reap the full benefits of EHR. This poster presents a systematic workflow study conducted to enhance the adoption of advanced EHR features. This study led us to develop new adoption and training strategies, which resulted in statistically significant (p<0.03) improvement in the adoption of advanced results management features.
