Epic Clinical Informatics-Focused CLN102-Focused (April 1 - October 31, 2021)

Verona, WI US
April 1, 2021 to October 31, 2021

Statement of Need and Purpose

Healthcare is changing quickly with the electronic health record (EHR) matching this rapid pace. Clinical Informaticists need to continually increase their competence and skills to build, modify, and create efficiencies within the EHR, as well as understand the implications of their decisions on clinicians and patient safety. They also need the ability to work effectively among the interprofessional team and be liaisons between information technology and clinical operations. To be effective in in this role and increase clinician satisfaction, Clinical Informaticists need to promote excellent communication among healthcare team and improve clinical workflows within the EHR.

This course includes the same general content as CLN102, but at a faster pace and focuses more on specific knowledge and skills that are needed for certain settings (e.g., ambulatory settings) and different organizations. The intent of the course is consistent across individual sessions. Agenda topics may be modified slightly for each session and general session start/stop times may vary. However, the amount of time learning content does not change, learning objectives are addressed in each session, and learners receive training to prepare for certification.

Elements of Competence

This CE activity has been designed to change learner competence and focuses on the American Board of Medical Specialities area of systems-based practice, Institute of Medicine areas of providing patient-centered care and utilizing informatics, and the Interprofessional and Nursing areas of roles/responsibilities, interprofessional communication and teams and teamwork.

    Intended Audience

    This program is designed to meet the needs of physicians, nurses and advance practice nurses, as well as other Clinical Builders who have interest in acquiring advanced competence in Epic's EHR.

    Learning Objectives

    Following this training, learners will be able to:

    • Demonstrate the skills to help improve clinical workflows and increase clinician satisfaction
    • Describe strategies to increase effectiveness as a liaison between IT and operations
    • Explain the value and evolving role of the clinical informaticist in maximizing communication among members of the interprofessional health care team
