The HITECH Act is radically altering the United States health care landscape, forever changing the way clinician’s access, share and interact with patient information. At the forefront of this shift is the increasing adoption of electronic medical records (EMRs), now a necessity for hospitals and health care providers. In 2010, HIMSS Analytics certified more than 80 hospitals as Stage 6 of the EMR Adoption Model, almost double the total in 2009.
As part of their Signature Learning Series, The American Hospital Association (AHA) recently featured a presentation from Mahaska Health Partnership, “Secure PHI and Ensure Clinician Productivity Using Lean.”
Through the use of Lean practices, the team at Mahaska Health Partnership, a 25-bed critical access hospital, applied Lean time savings study practices to determine the true impact that securing PHI would have on clinician productivity—in terms of real minutes translated into cost.
