AAN EHR Chart Challenge
2008 AAN Annual Meeting in Chicago

The new AAN EHR Chart Challenge will be a structured EHR vendor demonstration, with vendor representatives from Amazing Charts, eClinicalWorks, e-MDs, MediNotes, NextGen, and Sage participating in this event. Each vendor will illustrate the capabilities of their EHR products by working off of a neurology-specific script. Each vendor will also have a booth in the Exhibit Hall. The event is free and open to all meeting registrants. Attendees can score the vendors as they demonstrate. Door prizes available. Register now.
EHR Vendor Report
The EHR Work Group has published the 2007 Electronic Health Records Vendor Report. The report evaluates EHR products that best meet the needs of neurologists in small and solo practices and is intended to complement the report released in 2006.
Electronic Health Records Work Group
The EHR Work Group, formed in August 2004, coordinates the Academy's efforts related to EHR and recommends to AAN leadership how to assist members in incorporating EHR into their practices. Led by Chair Orly Avitzur, MD, MBA, and Vice-Chair Daniel Hier, MD, MBA, the work group reports to the Medical Economics and Management Committee.
