Shared Electronic Health Record (EHR) Implementation Journey
Best Practices and Lessons Learned in Health Information System Collaboration, Feb 28, 2018 Jeannie Borg, Director, Clinical Informatics - Waypoint Wendy Odell, Director, Mental Health HIS Cluster
2
Objectives Discuss lessons learned Provide a forum for an open discussion to learn
together and move forward with best practices

Waypoint at a Glance
Teaching hospital specializing in comprehensive mental health care Waypoint Research Institute 1,200 employees; 301 inpatient beds; over 29,000 outpatient visits Regional Mental Health services for adults including geriatrics Provincial high security Forensic Mental Health services Mental Health HIS Cluster HIMSS EMRAM Level 6

Shared Health Information System (HIS) Shared Services Agreement Single shared HCIS Waypoint Data Centre Marriage analogy Maintain our own IT, CI, DS and PP
departments Some shared positions at Waypoint to
support the additional infrastructure Expectation that teams work together Director, MH HIS Cluster (new role)
6
Purpose of Collaboration Improve quality, safety, patient outcomes and reduce variations in
care with evidence-based practices Develop common clinical standards Support mental health research and population health Create standardized reporting and business intelligence Improve information sharing Improve value per dollar spent and reduce cost and effort to
maintain HIS Aligned with MOH HIS renewal clustering (hospitals must form
clusters to maximize value of investments)
7
Project Guiding Principles Focus on evidence based best practices to improve patient safety,
quality of care Standardize unless patient risks and safety issues are identified Unique needs of hospital will be met EHR adoption/optimization is on-going Opportunities for teaching and research Projects will be joint whenever possible Costs allocated equitably and transparently Equitable say in decisions
8
Key Departments IT and Decision Support
cornerstones Clinical Informatics as an enabler Professional Practice drives our
work Support clinicians who take care of patients ‘Love them until they love you back’

Benefits Evaluation Practice and clinical documentation standardization Improved ability to provide Clinical Informatics support Efficiencies for implementing Provincial Initiatives Meditech system availability System adoption/HIMSS EMRAM framework
15
Lessons Learned Focus on practice (not system) and future state Standardization guiding principles/vision and
methodology – communication this often All parties need to be open to changing practice for
standardization to occur Engage Risk/Policy staff (practice change=policy change) Consider third party to assist with clinical decisions when
consensus can not be reached
16
Lessons Learned Strong governance structure Strict adherence to escalation and decision making processes Take time for team/relationship building in beginning Collaborate on most future initiatives/projects - alignment of
planning cycles Don’t re-invent the wheel
• Leverage partner success and expertise (i.e., adopt already standardized workflow and content and existing proven governance structures)
• SME expertise from Partner site → Decrease consulting costs → Increase team capacity
17
Lessons Learned Partnering allowed Waypoint to achieve their goals much faster
• HIMSS 0.8 → HIMSS 6 (4 months post Go LIVE)
Shared commitment to a single goal Ontario Shores had to pause initiatives
Building into an existing LIVE system Zero technical/applications issues Data migration is never as simple as it sounds Focus on the more complex workflows early Virtual team work can be challenging, face time is critical Our vision = shared practice decisions Change management key to success
