As the Office Manager for a large physician practice, revising all the practice’s policies and procedures due to a recent implementation of a new EHR system is very important. The first step for revising existing policies and procedures would be to get an implementation team together that can teach others about the EHR system. Also, get with the health IT vendor and configure the EHR system to meet appropriate security measures (Hodgkins, 2015). The second step would be to identify the hardware needs in order to properly transfer data and make sure the EHR system will function. With the correct hardware, the physician practice can save a lot of time and money. This will allow the practice to determine the appropriate approach for transferring data from the former recordkeeping system (Hodgkins, 2015). The third step would be to actually transfer the data. There should be a checklist of items that need to be entered into the EHR system. Also, if the amount of time that it is going to take for each patient is established, this will allow the practice to distribute the workload (Hodgkins, 2015). References: Hodgkins, M. (2015).
