Health department to adopt Main Street EMR; coordination with county timekeeping underway
Summary
Board heard that the department selected Main Street as its new electronic medical record (EMR) system and staff are coordinating with county HR and Tyler Technologies on timekeeping adjustments tied to the wider rollout.
The board was told the health department will move ahead with Main Street as its electronic medical record system after reviewing multiple options.
"Main Street will be the new electronic medical record, that we decided to move forward with," the facilitator said, noting the system will need some configuration to fit the department's needs and the county is coordinating with Tyler Technologies on cross-department timekeeping. Department heads are completing priority-based budgeting worksheets as part of the longer-range planning process.
Officials did not commit to a firm go-live date but suggested a phased rollout could occur next year; staff noted the decision followed a multi-year review of options.
