EHR Governance (HIMSS Book Series)

By Paula Scariati

By Paula Scariati

Organizations spend large amounts of money to purchase, deploy, and optimize their Electronic Health Records (EHRs). They are not plug-n-play systems, so a commitment to an ongoing improvement cycle is necessary. When done well, this responds to the people, the process, and the technology. When not done well, complete failure of the system could result in costing the organization thousands of dollars.

In her new book, “The Art of EHR Governance: A Practical Guide to Leading Successful Change,” Paula Scariati delves into the complexities of EHR governance and offers a strategic process that can scale to small and large organizations alike. With over a decade of experience working with government, academic, and nonprofit organizations using various EHR systems, Scariati provides invaluable insights and practical advice on how to navigate the challenges and drive positive change.

The book starts by emphasizing the importance of articulating a clear vision to organizational leaders. Scariati explains that leaders need to understand the value and impact of strong EHR governance, both theoretically and financially. By championing EHR governance, leaders can ensure that the organization is fully committed to the ongoing improvement and optimization of their EHR system.

Throughout the book, Scariati outlines each step required for leading successful change in EHR governance. Drawing from her extensive experience, she shares critical lessons learned to help readers avoid common pitfalls and achieve measurable improvements more rapidly. The practical nature of the book allows readers to implement the strategies and techniques outlined in real-world scenarios.

One of the key strengths of “The Art of EHR Governance” is its ability to cater to organizations that use different EHR systems. Scariati has worked with organizations using Epic, Allscripts, McKesson, Meditech, and Cerner, among others. This diverse experience enables her to provide insights and recommendations that are applicable regardless of the specific EHR system in use.

The book not only focuses on the technical aspects of EHR governance but also addresses the importance of considering the people and processes involved. Scariati emphasizes that successful EHR governance requires a holistic approach that considers the needs, preferences, and workflows of the end-users. By aligning the technology with the people and processes, organizations can ensure a positive user experience and maximize the benefits of their EHR system.

As the book progresses, Scariati highlights the importance of ongoing growth and refinement. She emphasizes the need for benchmarked metrics, innovation, and out-of-the-box thinking to continuously improve the EHR governance strategy. This commitment to ongoing improvement sets organizations up for long-term success and allows them to adapt to evolving healthcare landscapes and technologies.

Overall, “The Art of EHR Governance: A Practical Guide to Leading Successful Change” is a must-read for healthcare professionals, IT leaders, and anyone involved in EHR governance. Scariati’s expertise and practical insights make this book an invaluable resource for organizations looking to optimize their EHR system and drive positive change.
