Allscripts' Berner Discusses EHR, MU At HIMSS15

Health IT Outcomes was at HIMSS15 in Chicago broadcasting live from the show floor and recording podcasts with key exhibitors. Health IT Voices hosts Todd Schnick and Kelly Riggs spoke with many of healthcare's most influential leaders in order to keep you current on the latest technology and people driving health IT.

In this podcast, Allscripts International and Sunrise president Rich Berner provides a brief overview of Allscripts, his role with the company, and some insight into the Sunrise product line. He details how the Sunrise product line has evolved in an effort to address these providers issues with EHRs and how Allscripts works with providers to ensure their EHR experience is not only less painful, but actually adds value to their practice of medicine. Berner responds to criticisms that EHR technology provides limited benefit to clinicians and little ROI to the healthcare organization, sharing examples that contradict this perception? He also share his thoughts on the federally-driven EHR Meaningful Use program and predicts what the future holds for the progress of EHR technology in a post-MU world.
