352 Days Left!

In approximately one year, GBMC HealthCare will have one medical record system for all patients, regardless of the setting in which they receive their care. As a Systems Analyst working for The Milton J. Dance, Jr. Head and Neck Center, I am looking forward to having one medical record system for GBMC's entire patient population.

Some may agree that our current process for accessing data from multiple sources and compiling this data to create analysis reports is time consuming. However, after previously serving as an Epic Application Coordinator for another medical system, I have experienced Epic and can seriously appreciate the convenience of having one record per patient.

Epic's Reporting Workbench is just one of the tools available that will allow me to access Epic's database for the reporting needs of the Dance Center. The Reporting Workbench tool is a part of Epic's Cogito, which is Epic's embedded analytics or set of tools designed to expand the usefulness of our electronic healthcare infrastructure. We expect that Epic's Reporting Workbench will greatly increase the performance of creating and presenting analysis reports.
