Session 3: Maximizing Use – Taking Health IT to the Next Level: Tracking and Improving Patient Outcomes

This discussion series offered a focused, collaborative space for three one-hour virtual sessions spread over a few weeks. The series delved into the practicalities of managing and leveraging health IT tools, specifically eClinicalWorks (eCW) and Azara, to enhance clinical care and the ability to monitor outcomes across the patient population. Participants had the opportunity to share best practices, troubleshoot common challenges, and uncover actionable strategies for optimizing these essential systems. The group fostered a peer-to-peer learning environment, encouraging open discussion and knowledge exchange among providers, care teams, and quality professionals.

This session moved beyond the basics, exploring how to fully leverage eCW and Azara for monitoring outcomes across the patient population and how to effectively communicate these advancements across the entire health center.
