Strategy developed by BIO-EHR Working Group (BIO/Ed):
1. Conversations – listen for shared vision and the changes needed to achieve it
2. Conference – crystallize initiative and partnerships3. Report – articulate the vision, synthesize previous
efforts; recommend changes needed & roles; address sustainability
4. Implementation – make investments; implement commitments; improve communication; leverage feedback loops
Approved by a joint meeting of the EHR Advisory Committee and the BIO Advisory Committee in November 2006
