Hattiesburg (Miss.) Clinic transformed the implementation of its new EHR into an opportunity to gather, according to the Dec. 26 story. The physician-owned health system called the rollouts of Epic “happy hours” featuring EHR update-related scavenger hunts and prizes.
“We turned it into a social event and we had a really great turnout,” Rebecca Lauderdale, MD, Hattiesburg Clinic physician well-being champion, told the AMA. “We had people who were able to experience the changes before they rolled out. They were able to ask questions. And it just went a lot more smoothly.”
