EHR Transition Tips – Implementation

Pearls from health centers undergoing EHR transition

This resource is part of a set of three EHR transition resources created from the collective EHR transition experiences of several health centers interviewed by HITEQ. This tip sheet covers the creation of the EHR transition team, the implementation approach, how to work with your vendor, chart migration, and communication.

This is the third in a series of three EHR Transition Tips, gleaned from interviews with several health centers who recently transitioned. The other two can be seen here:  motivation and planning and vendor solicitation and selection.
