Briana Contreras, an editor of Managed Healthcare Executive, had the pleasure of chatting with Cindy Gaines, chief clinical transformation officer at Lumeon, about how automation is filling in the gaps electronic health records (EHRs) are not able to meet and how these gaps are affecting staff, increased costs, workflows and more.
Gaines shared EHRs work well for the way they were created to, through some processes such as documenting a patient's health information "at that point in time," for more appropriate billing practices and much more.
"Companies have spent millions implementing their EHRs," Gaines said. "But it's not going to meet all your needs. It's going to meet ( particular) needs."
Organizations like Lumeon are implementing automation into EHRs to fill in those gaps or to meet all needs.
