  9. EMR Scores by Comparison EMR Scores by Bed Size EMR Scores by State

  10. How will we get there? Who will take the lead?

  11. Electronic Medical Record

  12. MSHA EMR Strategies Inpatient / Outpatient EMR In 2003, strategic EMR initiative launched to build upon a new integrated technology solution powered by a workflow engine $40+ million committed by MSHA Board for a multi-year implementation Physician Office EMR Implemented Misys EMR in practices in 2005 and now offering as an MSO hosted service to non-employed physician practices Regional Integration Varying levels of integration with physician practice EMRs depending on their status of EMR adoption Exploiting CCHIT compliant inter-operability tools Collaboration in regional connectivity initiatives such as CareSpark RHIO 6/2/2014 12

  13. Computerized Patient Record JourneyPhases I-III Increasing Value On Journey to Patient Safety, Quality and Efficiency 2009-11 2009-10 Bar Coding - MAK Live 2008-09 Interdisciplinary Charting 6 months ED Rad Upg PACs >6 months 2007 Cardiology eHIM Orders Pharmacy Network ClinicalAccess Monitors Single Sign On Hardware Wireless

  14. MSHA In/Out-Patient Approach Mountain States EMR consist of the following: (We are 75% deployed) An electronic Clinical Data Repository - √ Completed (Soarian Clinical Access) Contains 8 years of detailed clinical data An electronic Order Management System - √ Underway (New Soarian Orders) A Picture Archival Communication (PACs) System which allows the capture of medical images – √ Completed (GE Radiology PACs and Siemens Cardiology PACs (echos, caths, nuclear studies…) An electronicflow sheets of vitals and I/O - √ Completed (Soarian Critical Care and MegaCare) An electronic Pharmacy System - √ Completed (Soarian Pharmacy) An electronic Radiology System - √ Completed (Siemens Radiology) An electronic Transcription System - √ Completed (Dolby with Voice Recognition) An electronic Laboratory System - √ Completed (Cerner Classic, replaced w/ SoftLab) An electronic Nursing/Ancillary documentation System - √ Completed (Soarian Clinical Team) An electronic Paper Medical Record - √ Completed (Soarian HIM) eHIM helps you fill gaps in areas throughout your hospitals, where you do not have electronic functionality by scanning, storing and retrieving the paper medical record. Also allows on-line abstraction, coding and completion management and signature by physicians from any location. electronic workflow engine is “listening” to any care event or condition and can be automatically triggered to pro-actively monitor, notify and escalate steps in the care process across all caregivers. Hardwired process workflows minimize lag-time between care handoffs and eliminate “dropping the ball!” 6/2/2014 14

  15. MSHA In/Out Patient Approach • What’s Next……………….. • In order to have a “Completed” Electronic Medical Record, these components are scheduled for implementation: • Nursing Plans of Care • CPOE/ Physician Orders • Physician Progress Notes • Continued/Enhanced Integration to Physician Office EMR’s • Deployment of Home Health Clinical Documentation • On-going enhancement of workflows as more clinical information is available and more clinicians are on-line 6/2/2014 15

  16. Progress Notes Timeframe for Implementation Foundation Systems Clinical Repository Monitors Wireless Single-sign-on Replace Ancillaries • Pharmacy • MAK • eHIM • Dictation • ED • PACs • Rad • EKG • Cardio Orders and Documentation Orders Alerts Workflows Vital Signs Assessments Documentation Forms Plans of Care Physician Order Entry Clinical Decision Support

  17. MSHA Ambulatory Approach Physician Office EMR • Over a decade of utilizing the Misys office management system in all physician practices and providing as contracted MSO service • Implemented Misys EMR in practices in 2005 and now offering as a service to private physician practices (under Stark Safe Harbor guidelines)

  18. MSHA Connectivity Approach Regional Integration • Varying levels of integration with physician practice EMRs depending on their status of EMR adoption • Exploiting CCHIT compliant inter-operability tools • Collaboration in regional connectivity initiatives such as CareSpark RHIO

  19. Electronic Medical Record

  20. EMR – Approach • Understanding how WHS EMR Strategies • In-Patient EMR (76% completed) • Our In-patient EMR consists of several software applications that make up the chemistry of a EMR.  • Out Patient EMR • Our Out reach (out-patient) EMR currently consists of a purchased package – AllScripts product • Ancillary Strategies around EMR’s • Complexity surrounding multiple EMR strategies – allows us to take advantage of true interoperability through Relay Health.

  21. WHS EMR Strategies Inpatient / Outpatient EMR 99.2% of Positive adoption through our WHS/Physician Portal – our connectivity tool for our Physicians. Over 1,000 Physician Population Our Physician voice is critical in shaping our outcomes. Physicians ‘decide’ how our electronic medical record is defined – through Physician Technology Committees. Board initiative to commit information technology and the exchange of health record exchange for the improvement of patient care within our community. Physician Office EMR Today we have over 60+ physician clinics/offices affiliated with Wellmont. We currently Implemented Misys practice management EMR, and currently have installed AllScripts as our out patient clinical EMR solution. Regional Integration Continued education and participation in sharing health exchange information to every town/city/and region within our community Regional Quarterly IT collaboration initiatives Hosting service, regional/industry benchmarking, best practices Establishing a Chime/HIMSS chapter within our Region 6/2/2014 21

  22. Navigating through the technology “Nobody said it would be easy”

  23. EMR evolution…. Phase 5 EMR In Patient - EMR Phase 4 Physician Office,CPOE Phase 4 Horizon Lab, Anesthesia, ER Phase 3 Nursing Doc (HED), AdminRx (barcoding) Phase 2 LAB (Cerner), Pharmacy (HMM), Cardiology Phase 1 PACS (AGFA), RIS (STAR), OR (HSM),Transcription/Dictatn.

  24. EMR – In Patient Approach… Wellmont’s EMR consist of the following: (We are 76% deployed) • An electronicOrder Management System - √ Completed(STAR HOM/Orders) • An Picture Archival Communication (PAC’s) System which allows the capture of medical images – √ Completed(PAC’s) • An electronicPharmacy System - √ Completed(HMM) • An electronicRadiology System - √ Completed(Star RIS) • An electronicTranscription System - √ Completed(Cquence, Star/HPF, Lanier) • An electronicLaboratory System - √ Completed(Cerner Classic) • An electronicNursing documentation System - √ Completed (HED) • An electronicHorizon Patient Folder Application - √ Completed(HPF) • HPFhelps you fill gaps in areas throughout your hospitals, where you do not have electronic functionality. This application allow scanned documents and having them back available in ‘REAL-TIME electronically.

  25. WHS EMR – What’s Next… In order to have a “Completed” Electronic Medical Record, these components are scheduled for implementation: CPOE/Orders Physician Notes Integration to Physician Office EMR’s and Clinician Care Plans Cardiology products have to be fully integrated (90% done) Emergency Departments need to be fully integrated Anesthesia needs to be fully integrated 6/2/2014 25

  26. Ambulatory Strategy Ambulatory Strategy and Solution Update

  27. Traditional Methods of Delivering Test Results/Transcriptions Fax or Mail Manual Process and Costly – Not Actionable Portal Passive Notification – Requires Provider to Search for Result – Not Actionable Point to Point Interfaces HL7 Interfaces IT Overhead- Costly to Maintain – Not Actionable

  28. Interoperability through RelayHealth RelayHealth provides an intelligent network that enables constituents across healthcare to connect interactively, share information, and collaborate to improve the quality and efficiency of care. • Improves clinical communication, • Enhances business performance • Facilitates the delivery of high-quality care
