Maximizing EHRs under Value-based Care

Like many physicians, Abdul Kabir, MD, is watching as the healthcare industry moves from a strictly fee-for-service reimbursement model to value-based care. He’s also participating in Comprehensive Primary Care Plus (CPC+), a national primary care medical home model under the auspices of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). “You cannot do this [type of care] without your EHR,” Kabir says. “The idea is to use technology to increase efficiencies in workflow and capture, analyze and validate data and use it in our practice in a way that’s meaningful to us and brings value.

In an industry such as healthcare, technology is developed to decrease human efforts and error, streamline the workflow and bring an entire practice on a single platform. Therefore, it’s not possible for physicians and staff to adhere to the complications of EHR, and dedicate more time on EHR’s task instead of focusing on patient’s care.
