Global (Non-US) EMR Implementations 2019
12 September 19
| Everton Santos and Jonathan Christensen
Given the intense nature of an EMR implementation, it is natural that most projects will experience at least a few unexpected hurdles. In fact, about 30% of healthcare organizations outside the US report going over budget and 40% report vendor-missed timelines. However, feedback from recent implementations † shows that some vendors are much more likely to help their clients stay on budget, on time, and within scope. Which vendors make the list? † Data for this report was collected from organizations outside the US who contracted for an EMR between January 2016 and August 2018 and who are either currently implementing their solution or have already done so. Feedback was also collected from some organizations who have an ongoing implementation that started prior to January 2016.
