With a new federal focus on digitizing electronic health records, organizations are now striving to transition their clinical information systems into modernized Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. However, this process involves several potential roadblocks: the cost and complexity of implementing, managing, and deploying powerful new EHR applications; persuading clinicians to use the new systems on a consistent basis; and ensuring that electronic patient information is secure and compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Developing an effective IT strategy to address these key challenges is essential for a successful EHR project.
