“Everything’s so Role-Specific”: VA Employee Perspectives’ on Electronic Health Record (EHR) Transition Implications for Roles and Responsibilities [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Electronic health record (EHR) transitions are increasingly widespread and often highly disruptive. It is imperative we learn from past experiences to anticipate and mitigate such disruptions. Veterans Affairs (VA) is undergoing a large-scale transition from its homegrown EHR (CPRS/Vista) to a commercial EHR (Cerner), creating a unique opportunity of shedding light on large-scale EHR-to-EHR transition challenges.
