Getting Family Medicine Home 4 Dinner
Burnout and Health Information Technology-related stress are profoundly affected by the time spent in the electronic health record (EHR). The aim of this initiative is to decrease the time providers spend on the EHR by creating a learning program that is practical, longitudinal, individualized, and based on adult learning theory.
This initiative is inspired by Stanford Children's Health's "Home for Dinner" program. The UMass Memorial department of Family Medicine & Community Health's "Home 4 Dinner" Initiative comprises of a specialty-specific central EHR learning website and one-on-one Epic mastery coaching sessions led by provider Super Users.
The UMass FMCH Epic Mastery Task Force is led by Henry Del Rosario and comprises of Megan Brochu PA-C, Veronica Farrell NP, Josephine Fowler MD, Nicholas Hajj MD, and Jeannette Ryan-Alkasab MD.
