Designing an EMR that is user friendly


Recommended Posts

What would it take to design an EMR that is actually user friendly? I have practiced medicine for 26 years and would now like to do something with what I have learned to make an EMR "really" user friendly. Any thoughts?

The problem I run into the most is the "one size fits all" set up. The EMRs I've sued have all been too inflexible. I've rewritten ours as much as I can, but still the rigid framework adds hours to my day. If I were a family practice MD, it would fit much better.

A system which allows dictation directly into the system without having to fill in blanks and allows one click d/c with rx option. a chart entry would look like this:

h+P/results of dig.studies all dictated directly in and shows in real time.

standard d/c instructions and rx for each d/o set up by user, easily changed in the case of allergies, etc done with one click.

all soc. hx,meds/alleries/name of pcp, etc automatically fills in from prior visits but easily changed.

minimal time spent typing.
