How to Design and Use Electronic Health Records (EHR) to Optimize Person-Centered Planning

Webinar Image

The design of planning templates and electronic health records (EHRs) can present as a major obstacle to the quality implementation of Person-Centered Planning. Traditional EHR designs are frequently dominated by problems, pathology, and complex workflows that focus primarily on the support of billing and compliance. In contrast, a thoughtfully designed EHR can facilitate person-centered practice by increasing the focus on key person-centered concepts, facilitating dialogue between providers and persons served, and generating the co-creation of meaningful PCPs to help shape the person’s journey forward.

In this webinar we:

  • Discuss common design pitfalls and learn promising practices in developing electronic health records (EHRs) focused on a person’s unique preference and life goals.
  • Offer practical guidance on ways direct support providers and organizational leaders can advance EHRs that facilitate the uptake of person-centered planning.
