Deliver improved quality care, increase revenue, and decrease costs by optimizing your EMR and EHR.

The ability to analyze data and manage information is critical to increasing profitability, improving quality of care, and remaining compliant with the latest government regulations. But improving data management, decreasing cost, or defining innovative solutions for “meaningful use” means being willing to change.

• How can you leverage your EHR/EMR more effectively with other clinical information systems?
• Does your organization successfully collect patient data and ensure it is usable not only across your organization, but also across the entire healthcare value chain?
• How will pay-for-performance (P4P) and other regulatory funding initiatives affect your IT strategic plan?
• Has your organization successfully applied the concepts of personalized and/or evidence-based medicine?

Seamless, integrated data gathering and management—keys to clinical excellence and risk avoidance.
West Monroe Partners has extensive experience in healthcare information technology consulting, and has worked with many of the top EMR systems for providers.

Most provider organizations utilize fragmented information and systems focused on discrete care processes—radiology, laboratory services, pharmacy, in and out-patient medical records management, etc.—rather than on patients. As a result, it can be difficult to develop a holistic view of patient care.

Applying a combination of change management expertise, industry experience, and technical know-how, West Monroe Partners can help you develop an effective clinical information delivery capability by identifying:

• Critical information gaps in your existing clinical information delivery capabilities and requirements that your organization cannot fulfill today.
• The potential consequences of those gaps, as well as opportunities and efficiencies to be gained by addressing them.
• Actions required to fill those gaps and to meet providers’ information requirements.

Take the complexity out of PQRI reporting.

West Monroe Partners’ PQRI reporting solution can help you report care outcomes relative to PQRI measures—easily, efficiently, and comprehensively. Your users can:

• Review performance on a case-by-case or overall basis and identify opportunities for corrective action.
• Certify results.
• Submit documentation required for reimbursement to the CMS, in the required electronic .XML format.
