Though our office hasn't had triaing yet, we have worked hard to get the docs familiar with problem lists and past history to date so as to be better ready for the big day.
Today, I managed to work with Jill and get through all but my last patient electronically. Our office still runs slower so tidying up at the end of the day was a little rough but it isn't as bad as i thought it might be.
The last 3 days have been crazy with 14 yo's bolting from the building scared of their shots, Kabuki syndrome (what's that?) and other wierd stuff. That continued today with strange diagnoses but i was able to get almost all the PMH entered for my autistics, aortic stenosis, etc.
I do bail on a few if i can't get the PMH entered before entering the room.
I'm really getting better with handwriting - hang in there with it. It isn't any faster than typing but it is more convenient sometimes.
I try to make sure i open the note and then go back to the growth chart before entering hte room to not have to try and do that in front of the patient - especially when it takes 20 secs.
The families are quite patient and the kids of course love the colors and the fact that their pediatricaiin would have a COMPUTER!
More later from our end

Congrats on the full day of emr. I made it until about 4:15, when I was getting behind, mostly due to a very uncooperative batch of 3, 4 and5 year olds this afternoon.
