Provider Burnout-Biggest Factors and Strategies to Improve

Event Materials (Key Required)

Course Description

Provider burnout is at an all-time high. Often Electronic Medical Records (EMRs), such as EPIC, Cerner, Meditech, are seen as a source of frustration, leading to burnout,—but when used effectively, they can help reduce provider burnout. This webinar explores how thoughtful, streamlined EMR documentation practices can save time, reduce cognitive load, and improve clinician satisfaction. 

Join us to learn how to optimize EMR workflows, minimize redundant tasks, and harness technology, i.e. Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support—not hinder—your daily practice. We’ll also discuss team-based documentation models and tools that help providers focus more on patient care and less on clerical burden.
