Mather Introduces Interactive Physician Website

Dear Mather Physicians of the Advisory Committee and Medical Board Members,

I am pleased to present to all of you a new and improved method of physician communication. Starting immediately there is a new website dedicated to the medical staff of Mather Hospital. In the next couple of days, all members of the Physician Advisory Committee and the Medical Board will have pre-registered access to the new Mather Hospital Physician's Forum ( Matherdoc.org ). Later this week, you will receive a series of e-mails from the Physician Forum website and myself, indicating the steps to logon to the website's secure forum where you will find postings of hospital related information; Physician's scores, Hospital's scores, and most importantly, updates about Sunrise Clinical Manager (SCM - our new EMR).

The goal of this web page will be to elicit physician input and participation in regards to the implementation process of SCM. It will allow for a free exchange of ideas as well as opinions on the order sets that are being built and their content through the forum message threads. Everything that is posted here will accept commentary, opinions, and feedback to those opinions. The hope is with this web page, WE the physicians can directly guide and build the future of medical practice here at Mather Hospital. This is YOUR webpage, YOUR EMR, at YOUR hospital.

Tell your colleagues about the Physician Forum as well at Matherdoc.org. They can all sign up for access as long as they are Mather Hospital Med. Staff. When they fill out the application they too will receive e-mails instructing them as how to log on.
It's the FUTURE of Medicine, make it YOURS!
