EMR Optimization Across All Sites of Care at IU Health

Seung Park, MD, CHIO and Jason Schaffer, MD, Chief Medical Information Officer, Adult AHC, IU Health. Indiana University Health is a large statewide organization with 15 hospitals and more than 100 clinics, including the most comprehensive academic health center in the state, and is one of the busiest hospital systems in the U.S. While a single EMR is implemented throughout the organization, it was implemented over a time of intense growth for the organization. As a result, the adoption of the most recent capabilities of the EHR has remained variable and in need of optimization. Optimization is contained in the Uplift program at IU Health. The program has 3 phases: Core, More and Continuous Improvement that are deployed in a rolling fashion across specialties. This session describes the business, clinical, and operational need for this program and the strategy to deploy it.
