  1. PMG Recommended EHR Selection Process

  2. add some context, resources and best practices. When we get together I can give you what I have that will help round out the webinar.  I think the topic can be adequately covered in a 15 – 20 minute session and we could do the recording ASAP without a live audience and post it.

  3. NONE of the athenahealth EHR systems have connected to Elysium yet in Santa Cruz. The document I referenced sets out the path to do that. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU DO NOT GO LIVE WITH ATHENAHEALTH UNTIL YOUR INTERFACE IS COMPLETE, athenahealth plans a 15 week interface implementation cycle and PMG agrees with that timeline. There are startup and on-going costs from PMG and possibly from the EHR vendor to the practice and you should be aware BEFORE YOU MAKE A DECISION so you have the complete picture of your costs. You have the most leverage with the vendor if you work through these points BEFORE YOU COMMIT to using their software. • The EHR selection process PMG recommends is: • Narrow down the list of candidate EHR vendors • Review your candidates and EHR contact info with Bill Beighe • Optional – a member of the PMG team will attend demos and go through the due-diligence process with you • Bill will review specifications with the candidates and provide you a report • Bill will provide you and your vendor a interface guide which is intended to be a contract amendment between you and your EHR vendor. • You MUST MAKE SURE your contract with your vendor includes a commitment to follow the interface specifications and deliver a fully tested interface BEFORE YOUR PRACTICE GOES LIVE. • Inform Bill when you have signed your EHR vendor contract and provide a copy of the interface deliverables – or the entire contract if you are comfortable with that. • Inform your vendor that PMG will be a  participant on your EHR planning and implementation sessions (usually held weekly and run by the EHR vendor) • PMG provides these EHR selection services at no charge to PMG Contracted providers. • Bill
