It pleases me to report that growth is occurring in the
health information technology sector of the job market. More EMR technicians are needed to meet the
demand of doctors and hospitals implementing EMR systems in order to meet
eligibility requirements to receive CMS reimbursements.
EMR Implementation Technicians serve as liaison with
clinical staff regarding training and product related needs. The technician’s job is to take the EMR
templates to fit them practice’s specific needs. Say the client is a cardiologist, the tech will
design the patient encounter and exam templates using to build a specialty
cardiology
EMR using cardiopulmonary-related vocabulary and diagrams.
Consultants take the working knowledge they learned as a
technician and step it up a notch. It is
imperative that they know the EMR software product inside and out and with
their experience, they can confidently identify the implementation needs of
practices and hospitals. Consultants
provide the guidance needed to meet Meaningful Use criteria and suggest
software solutions packages that would work best for them.
Desired Qualifications:
Background in medicine and a desire to learn EMR software*
Compensation: $50,000-$60,000
(entry level) and $70,000 and upward (with previous experience)*
