title: The long road--and the high road--to successful implementation of OncoEMR.
abstract: We believe that no matter where a practice currently is in the EMR process--vetting products or companies to determine what will best meet its needs, implementing the new product just selected, or trying to take maximum advantage of the product already in use--we hope these suggestions, based on our experience, will contribute to your anticipated success. It is not uncommon for practices to become overwhelmed in the choice, implementation, and utilization of their EMR. What distinguishes those practices that are successful in their use of the EMR is their commitment to the product and their recognition that it is the central element in the treatment of their patients. Consistently exploring better ways to use OncoEMR, staying educated about the changes that occur, and taking full advantage of its best features will keep it simple and actionable for your practice.
