Step 4: Maintenance
Implementing an EHR in your practice is not the end of the road, but rather the beginning of your journey. The Center can help you create a high performance digital practice.
Peer Community
-- The Center offers several ways to talk with your peers about maintaining your system of choice. From this page you can read EHR reviews by fellow AAFP members, participate in email discussion lists and find a physician in your region that is willing to talk about how they’re making the EHR work for them. Shortcuts, tips and tricks can help you constantly improve the care you give your patients as well as your bottom line.
Events
-- Health information technology is a hot topic around the country for physicians. The AAFP includes discussions on various aspects of EHRs in many of its conferences. State academies also host special EHR workshops throughout the year. This page will give you a list of these functions and how to register.
