The Office of Wellbeing is participating in the AMA Joy in Medicine project. The Joy in Medicine Health System Recognition Program is designed to spark and guide organizations interested, committed or already engaged in improving physician satisfaction and reducing burnout. A portion of the program is focused on opportunities to improve the efficiency and proficiency of the EMR. 

Help us Get Rid of Stupid Stuff (GROSS) that interferes with your work. We want to rid the Epic workplace of "stupid stuff". The Epic team would love to hear from you. Please share "stupid stuff" in Epic that you believe could be improved. Email your suggestions to us at GROSSEpic@umc.edu.

Efficiency hours are designed to help physicians and APPs be more effective and efficient using Epic to take great care of their patients. The tips and tricks we review are focused on tools that are available to any physician using Epic, and the sessions are free to attend. We are currently offering four topics focused on outpatient workflows and one inpatient workflow focused topic.
