The case study provides the following:

• Background data
• Documentation of the current state of: Provider visit, Nurse/MA visit, Lab-only visit

for implementing an EHR and its impact on "patient flow".

Now, let's work on the vision and the goals of the practice.

• To be successful, you have to have a vision of what you want your practice to look like after the EHR is implemented. Describe what you think the goals could be for your practice. Keep in mind that any time a new system is implemented, a somewhat painful transition period can be expected. Be sure to address the following prompts in your response:
• Is your practice adopting an EHR to improve patient flow throughout the office?
• What "vision" do you get from the physician leaders?
• What specific problems do you think the EHR can help them with?
• What do you think the staff are most concerned about during this transition?
• Are there any issues that would be deal-breakers?
