Key Points:
- The HRM Task Force has spent the past year evaluating solutions resulting in two reports.
- The recommendations from both reports were made to help doctors spend less time handling reports and allow more time for patient care.
- Reducing the volume of reports from hospitals to EMRs, and improving the searchability of reports, would go a long way to easing the burden of reviewing digital reports and ensuring patient safety is maintained.
- A handful of hospitals have already initiated work to reduce the number of digital and faxed reports going to doctors.
