DESCRIPTION:Historically\, implementation of electronic health records in
  medical offices have been problematic. Specifically\, poor implementati
 on of these products is the leading cause of failure of acceptance of EH
 Rs in these offices. Implementation of EHRs in the small physician offic
 e remains poorly documented and this contributes to this failure rate. T
 o address this need\, OEMR (The OpenEMR Non-Profit) developed an interns
 hip experience with the Department of Medical Informatics and Clinical E
 pidemiology at Oregon Health and Science University to develop a road ma
 p for converting a small physician's office that is still using paper re
 cords to OpenEMR\, an open source electronic health record\, while using
  open source tools to implement and document the transformation. Documen
 tation was made public on the OEMR wiki (at http://www.oemr.org/wiki/Goi
 ng_From_Paper_to_Electronic) as a template for future implementations. T
 his presentation is an overview of the documentation completed for the w
 iki. There are many paths to implementation\, but the destination is mea
 ningful use of the OpenEMR system.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nSpecial Thanks: PLUG r
 egular Keith Lofstrom was instrumental to the success of this project\, 
 not to mention Dr. Sam Bowen\, MD in North Carolina and PLUG speaker Ton
 y McCormick.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nDiane Petersen is an emerging clinical infor
 maticist\, drawing from her formal education in clinical informatics and
  her extensive experience as a clinical pharmacist in a variety of setti
 ngs. Having completed an internship leading and documenting the implemen
 tation of OpenEMR\, an open source ambulatory electronic health record a
 nd practice management software application\, Diane is in her last term 
 of the Masters of Biomedical Informatics program at Oregon Health and Sc
 ience University. She plans to apply her background and knowledge contri
 buting to the improvement of managing healthcare data\, and ultimately t
 he improvement of patient care and outcomes.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nMany will he
