Physician’s Electronic Medical Record
Problem: Physicians were not using the hospital’s e-resources because they had to remember the URL to the digital library and use an additional log-in and password in their offices and at home.
Solution: Program the Physician’s Electronic Medial Record, which they access several times a day, with the necessary URLs and the abilty to automatically pass along credentials to the hospital’s e-resourcesResult: Usage of e-resources increased 255%
