Attaining healthcare excellence

Healthcare providers today face emerging challenges that require immediate and long-term consideration. Systems and processes must adapt to an industry-wide environment that is more collaborative, connected, and patient-centric. Comprehensive planning can enable providers to address current conditions and provide excellent patient care while planning for a future that includes an increasing reliance on digital technology solutions and ever-changing financial strategies.

BDO’s Healthcare Consulting team brings experienced, knowledgeable advice that helps organizations enhance patient and clinician experience, leverage electronic health record (EHR) systems, develop and optimize revenue streams, strengthen workforce management, and improve the organization’s overall financial wellbeing.

Our team can advise organizations on methods for increasing revenue, improving margins, and preparing a potential exit strategy. 

The Value of EHR Consultation

There are several reasons why healthcare providers seek consultation when selecting, implementing, and optimizing EHR systems:

  • Complexity: Healthcare providers may need assistance evaluating different options to find the EHR system that best suits their specific needs.
  • Technical knowledge: Implementing an EHR system requires technical experience in areas such as data migration, system integration, and network infrastructure. 
  • Workflow Optimization: EHR implementation and optimization involves reevaluating and optimizing existing workflows to align with the new system or new features with an existing system.  
  • Training and Change Management:  Successful adoption requires developing training programs and change management strategies, leading to better outcomes. 
  • Compliance and Security: Healthcare providers must meet all necessary compliance requirements and provide robust security measures to protect patient data.

Our digital technology consultants provide full EHR support from system selection, implementation, and optimization.
