The following are the four points on the checklist:

• Integrate the EMR with other clinical, business and building systems. This will help improve patient outcomes.
• Make the EMR available to clinicians wherever they are on multiple devices. This can increase clinician satisfaction.
• Use EMR data to inform and empower patients — for example, giving patients hospital bracelets that contain a real time location services device. This can improve patient experience.
• Consider the value of increased efficiency and reduced risk when calculating EMR return on investment.
