Q: Why would my organization need to perform a
readiness assessment?

A: A structured readiness assessment before you implement your new Healthcare Information System (HIS) can make the difference between a successful implementation and a barely adequate one. The assessment will define your processes and procedures within your clinical and financial areas that will be affected. It will identify failure points and the issues so that your implementation plan can determine resolutions. Pre-implementation or readiness assessments prevent surprises resulting in negative outcomes. Ideally, these assessments should be completed by experts, as they are experienced with how the end product should function and how it affects clinical/financial outcomes. A successful implementation will have expectations defined, issues identified and resolutions documented in your pre-installation system assessment.
