For those still nervous or lack confidence with computers (which is still a lot of people) additional support is needed to help them feel comfortable with the system and the supporting training (e-learning) and then let them get on with it.
You can find some great examples on how to tackle this cost effectively and at a similarly strategic level to EHR on the Brightwave website – http://www.brightwave.co.uk- in particular the case study on Bupa Healthcare, a private healthcare insurance company.
