Implementing a Behavioral Health Electronic Medical Record
Understanding the Relevant Issues and Barriers

Dynamic technology, regulatory, and organizational environments aim to challenge the promise of Electronic Behavioral Health Records (EbHR). Based on the organizational commitment and impact incurred by EbHR, understanding these challenges is paramount for behavioral health entrepreneurs. This workshop aims to better prepare those planning to implement EbHR by presenting relevant research literature, expert opinion, and shared-experiences within an interactive forum. The workshop will accomplish this task through four key areas:

  • Understanding the business case for EbHR
  • Knowing the impact of EbHR on workflows, users, and clients
  • Learning best practices of successful EbHR implementation
  • Developing a customized EbHR implementation strategy for your organization

Presenters and mediators will include representatives from NIATx, implemented behavioral health agency leaders, and academic researchers who hold relevant experience that speaks to your needs. We value your interest and participation and look forward to this unique opportunity with excitement!

Presenters:

Jay Ford, Sarah Wackerbarth, Amy Anderson, Matt McCluskey and others!
