Hi Jan, Hi Jan, Yes we are training physicians 1 on 1. We initially train them on PCI, launching PACs images and electronic signature. Lately we also train them on Clinical Review and Physician documentation as well. It takes about 1 hour to train them on the all of the above. When we add in POM, the entire first session is about 1.5 hours. We do ask the physicians to call a Clinical Informatics Analyst the first time they sit down to place orders. We currently have approximately 20 physicians from various disciplines trained to place orders into POM.
Good luck! Deborah W.

Are you still doing it?? We are being pushed to NOT do any physician training on our Meditech system... One thought is to create a CD with the trainer doing her training session The push back from an MD is that he makes $40,000 a day, are we going to pay him to come to training? I am speechless (again)... I am concerned about having inadequately prepared physicians, who are then inefficient and who will "bother" the nurses. AND, as we run full speed ahead into Clinical Review, EDM and then PCM/POM... if the doctors are not used to coming to training.. how do you rope them in. AND, what about incremental learning... no way will someone easily walk into ANY institution and be able to function in a SAFE manner!!! Our patients deserve better Our doctors deserve better Your thought please so I can present what others are doing Many thanks.
