Hurry Up and Wait

Nearly two weeks ago I posted that Heal NY sent confirmation of grant funding and that our project will soon contract with vendors.  That is still true, depending on what "soon" means.  What we got from Heal NY were contract documents for grant funding.  TriCounty has completed and signed these and sent them back to Heal NY.  Now we wait for Heal NY to sign these documents and send copies back to us.  THEN we can start committing funds to our EHR project....

Joyce, Anne, Karen S and I met earlier this week and went over our timeline and next steps.  I expect things to become much more focused once we sign agreements with vendors.  eClinicalWorks already sent an updated contract this week, and we expect similar from Consilium, our network support vendor.

Karen S is arranging visits for providers and office staff with local offices which already use eClinicalWorks so we can see EHR in action.  

Stay tuned!
