Overview

This section provides resources and guidance for the selection of an electronic health record (EHR) vendor and product. Tools are available that can be used as part of a structured process to identify and procure the EHR system that fits the functionalities and needs of your center, and which will support developing a mutually beneficial relationship with the software vendor for successful EHR implementation.  Tools and resources are available to help assess organizational readiness and financial resources, and to develop a communication plan, workflow redesign, migration plan, and solicitation and negotiation for EHR vendor selection.

UDS+ Preparation and Health IT Considerations - Session 1

Peer Learning Series for Health Centers

 

Disclaimer: Please note this information is current as of 1/18/2023. Please visit the UDS Modernization Overview and FAQ pages for the most up-to-date information about 2023 Uniform Data System (UDS) and UDS Patient-Level Submissions (UDS+).

As HRSA BPHC's UDS+ and other granular data reporting programs approach, health centers are at varying levels of awareness and readiness. The HITEQ Center offered a virtual office hours series to discuss the following:

  • The mechanisms of future reporting via bulk FHIR submission
  • The future state where health centers are ready for UDS+ and other patient level reporting.
  • Readiness processes for future reporting via bulk FHIR submission, including strong data governance, standardized documentation, and mapping. 
  • Health IT and data characteristics of future-focused health centers.

After participating in these four sessions, attendees are now able to:

  • Describe the characteristics of health centers that are more ready for granular and patient-level reporting
  • Point to resources available to attendees to increase understanding of FHIR
  • Identify at least one step to be taken to prepare for granular and patient-level reporting
