An AMA-convened panel of experts this week called for electronic health record (EHR) overhaul, outlining the eight top challenges and solutions for improving EHR usability. As chair of this committee, I ask you to share your thoughts with the AMA: Which of these eight priorities would make the biggest impact on your practice? Please share your thoughts in the comment section of this post.

Click the button at the bottom of this page to either sign in with your AMA credentials or create an account to post a comment below. Tell us which of the following priorities resonates the most with you:

  • Enhance physicians’ ability to provide high-quality patient care
  • Support team-based care
  • Promote care coordination
  • Offer product modularity and configurability
  • Reduce cognitive workload
  • Promote data liquidity
  • Facilitate digital and mobile patient engagement
  • Expedite user input into product design and post-implementation feedback

Read more about each of these priorities in an AMA Wire® post from earlier this week.

I look forward to hearing from you as we move forward with this important work and other efforts within the AMA’s Professional Satisfaction and Practice Sustainability initiative.
