Developing the appropriate staffing and communication plan during the implementation and ongoing support is key to the success of this project. A project manager who has demonstrated great success in managing other contracts and projects will bring this expertise to the EHR/HIE project. Collaboration between clinicians and the technology solution is essential. The implementation project teams are comprised of leadership, clinicians, and technologists from EHR/HIE participants. As part of the ongoing project management tasks, there must be a process to manage and report the project status, a problem resolution process, and a process to monitor the overall performance requirement of the contract. Proper assignment or resource is critical to the success of any project. As port of the scope of the project, we expect that qualified and skilled client resources will be assigned from each of the participating practices involved in the EHR/HIE project. The roles and responsibilities need to be clearly understood to ensure the success of the project.
