Article Overview

This article discusses common electronic health record workflow challenges reported by practices and describes three broad operational areas that can improve efficiency: organizing scanned documents, training staff on EHR capabilities such as ordering and e-prescribing, and using internal EHR messaging to route patient calls. It is aimed at practices, clinicians, and office staff who want to understand general ways EHR setup and workflow design can affect productivity. The content focuses on practice operations, vendor-supported training, and communication processes rather than on coding policy or clinical guidance.
