Physician Adoption Support Services

Is your hospital faced with a growing list of increasingly difficult fiscal, technology, and training issues that are inherent to the foundation of the healthcare organization?

Ultimately, any healthcare information technology (HIT) system should bridge the gap between technology and real-world clinical environments, and encourage clinicians to use automated systems in the care delivery process. Your physician’s no longer need to agonize over the time it takes to become familiar with the information system (IS), exasperate over functional deficiencies such as multiple systems for different purposes and an awkward graphic user interface (GUI), and struggle with inefficient locations of computer terminals.

Inteck specializes in helping hospitals obtain the maximum participation of clinicians in the use of the IS. We recognize that physician participation in IS initiatives, from planning to implementation, is important to success.  Our Readiness Assessment program is a proactive approach and will define how the hospital should implement new technology.

Benefits:

• Strategies for optimal rollout and implementation, including customized training and support for clinicians that ensure optimal system use and ongoing benefits
• Formal methodologies for assessing physician readiness, including existing technologies and future goal-oriented technologies
• Assessment of the healthcare technology needs across the organization
• Strategies to assess the less technological-savvy physicians, and define value propositions to promote adoption for all healthcare professionals
• Strategies to minimize the challenges with overcoming time issues with physicians
• Identifying and remedying performance issues, and strategic protocols for technology down time
• Best practices and procedures for promoting education and training of residents, staff physicians, and other professional staff
• Optimization of existing technology so that physicians and other professional staff more readily recognize the benefits in using it
• Methods for encouraging organization-wide support of existing technologies and changing the status-quo culture
• Definitions of controls necessary to ensure compliance with HIPAA while insuring that the system is physician-friendly
