Editorial Reviews

So many books zero in on the technology side of EMR projects. Dr. Polack's book takes on the EMR issues from the physician perspective not the technology adoption perspective. His 10 steps lay out how you first think about the breadth of your decision, how you look beyond system and infrastructure to the real business drivers and real practice impact your selection will have.If you have not read this book, do it now before you schedule any "discovery" meetings with vendors.

Witty and instructional, Dr. Polack's ten proven steps provides strategic guideposts to navigate through the EMR implementation process, from the evaluation, assessment, and planning stages through the critical pre-go-live and go-live steps. Having designed training strategies for several complex EMR implementations, I can testify that the steps in this easy-to-understand guide are critical to EMR implementation success.
