INCLUDED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS

I would include a physician, project manager, and an EHR expert in the practice management selection team. The physician would serve in guiding the team on matters that relate to the medical profession and issues. For the project manager, he/she will handle roles that relate to the implementation of the project, its progress, and concerns that the users may raise. Lastly, the EHR expert will be of help in creating templates and developing the flow of works in the project. The executive sponsor in this team will be the project manager (Jawhari, Ludwick, Keenan, Zaku & Hayward, 2016). The rationale for the selection of the project manager is because their role in the team coincides with the overall overseeing of the project.

The assessment of the HER process in this practice entails the investigation to identify the various organizational aspects. According to the class notes, the identification of the organizational aspects aids in the preparation of the actual project implementation. The second step is to solve the problems that may have been embedded in the identified concepts (Heath, Appan, & Gudigantala, 2017). According to the lecture notes, the factors that need to be considered in this case include strategic factors, training factors, as well as the financial aspects.

The challeng.

es that may face the selection of a new EHR include resistance from the members of staff and data migration. The members of the team may not always be ready to accept and implement change. The opposition may not only be from the members of staff but also to the board members. Secondly, the activity of migrating data from an old EHR program to another may prove tedious ((Heath, Appan, & Gudigantala, 2017). As learned in the lectures, there is a great deal of accuracy needed more so when it comes to handling the migration of sensitive and private information.
