Abstract

326

Neurologists are among the least satisfied physicians with their current electronic health record (EHR), with many known pain points and great opportunities for improved tools and workflows. Improved EHR functionality can have major implications for patient care, physician efficiency, and prevention of burnout. We describe the advocacy of the American Academy of Neurology for improved EHR usability and the resultant formation and subsequent accomplishments of a Neurology Subspecialty Steering Board at 1 major EHR vendor (Epic).
