On September 3, Dr. Thomas Gearhard and the WellStar Cobb Family Medicine practice made history by being the first to implement our WellStar Connect Epic® Electronic Health Record system. All five providers were on hand to take part in this monumental event.
By close of business, these providers and their staff cared for 58 patients. “By 10:30 a.m. the front office was humming along and by 2 p.m. the back office was doing the same,” explained Cheryl Stephens, Office Manager.
“This was the smoothest Epic implementation she has ever been associated with,” Julie Lewis, Epic Ambulatory project manager commented.
At the end of the day, a Go-Live Leadership conference call was held with the project team and operational leaders to discuss the first day of operations; daily calls will continue to provide information about the pilot site’s progress. All issues identified during this first day of operation were reviewed and most were resolved by the close of business today.
As a result of the pilot go-live, several tip sheets are now in development and will be shared with CyberStars and team members. Please feel free to reach out to any member of the project team or visit the WellStar Connect website for assistance.
