We have begun our Dragon dictation pilot this week. 11 physicians went through an in-depth training session last week and are into their first few days of use. I've created these primer-level CIS videos for supplementary training. I'd love to know if you find them helpful.
Click on the links below to be brought to screencast.com where you should be able to view them on any BH computer. If you have any trouble viewing from here, I created these videos on QuickTime and have the MPEG-4 files on my desktop if you want a copy. Keep in mind that you'll need this Apple freeware that is bundled with iTunes.

Show-Hide and Alphabetizing Favorites
Interesting week EMR-wise. We had a successful launch of EKG and stress test tracing images to the Clinical Notes as well as delivery of these results to BMP physicians ordering from the ambulatory setting. We're getting closer to making changes to the Table of Contents, as I reported earlier this week. But we also had something of a snafu with our attempted launch of the new Immunization Schedule.
Our intentions were good and, boy oh boy, did the IS team ever perform due diligence in terms of testing this new tool. Sometimes, though, all the testing in the world doesn't mean a thing when it can't be done in real time and space. To make a long night's story short, we ultimately decided to pull the schedule and reverted to the Immunization Profile, which really is just a plain text list of vaccines given.
For adults, the profile is fine, but for kids, whose MO is to be pin cushions through adolescence, the schedule was and will be a colorful enhancement. Expect to see it sometime in the TBD. For those of you whose patients are older than age 20, the schedule doesn't change things much except to lose the list and create a Historical Immunizations tab in the All Results band. All else functions as is including Health Maintenance and View Immunizations in the PowerNote. But for our younger patients, the schedule will provide visual cues and alerts that will improve the delivery of this essential component of care. You'll get the heads up when we are ready to give it another go.
In the meantime, one of my partners in crime, Pat Brown, created a couple of nice slide sets that I thought might be useful tips.
