Challenges

  • He had to type out every single word in his medical records.
  • EHR reduces face-to-face time with patients.
  • He spent more time entering data than in actual patient care.

How that was solved

  • He set up templates to automatically generate interpretation reports without having to type them freehand.

Results

  • He saves 2 hours every day on documentation.
  • He doesn’t need to work late nor bring charts home.
  • Templates create consistency in his notes.
