May 27 : Buying an EHR vs. Signing up for EHR

himss analytics honors 18 metrohealth clinics

By Chandresh Shah

Sounds like the same thing. Yet there is a subtle difference that can lead to success or failure.

Buying an EHR software is a one-time transaction. Behind this thinking lies the logic – ‘get this over with’

Whereas,

Signing up for EHR indicates a journey that says, ‘let’s get started’.

Buy an EHR Software

EHR software is not a one time transaction like buying burger at a fast food chain. A buying transaction is measured on a single event, that of getting you the food as quickly as possible. Everything about this transaction is focused on the single act of delivering you good, cheap food as fast and efficiently as possible. Once the food is delivered, transaction is over, period.

Sign up for EHR Software

When you hire a CPA, contractor or financial analyst, everyone is focused on starting something; not finishing. It usually starts with the process of understanding and aligning everyone with the desired end goal. The focus is really on building a relationship that lasts many years, many Tax Aprils. Trust is built. It is about caring enough about each interaction with each person. The focus is growing, learning and continuous improvement. It is long term, not a short term transaction.

You cannot do both at the same time.
