Medical Records Institute presents the
24th Annual TEPR (Towards the Electronic Patient Record)
Conference & Exhibition

Nearly twenty-four years ago, Medical Records Institute launched the TEPR conference, Towards the Electronic Patient Record, with fewer than 500 attendees. At that first TEPR, most people believed that "every doc" would be using an electronic patient record within 5 years. As TEPR continued year after year, the number of attendees grew and the issues surrounding EMR development and adoption turned out to be more complex than people had thought. Now, with a steady attendance of several thousand health informatics experts from all domains, TEPR has become the essential annual conference for anyone considering, selecting, implementing, maintaining, or improving EHRs or EMRs.

TEPR 2008 is a must for every physician, nurse, hospital executive, and health information management professional. TEPR is widely acknowledged as offering the best educational program in healthcare IT. And after 24 years, developments such as pay-for-performance, and quality patient safety improvements through EHRs have put an urgency on EMR implementation. Likewise, the creation of healthcare communities and networks, new consumer/personal health information systems, revolutionary new industries, development of completely new technologies , and regional and national efforts demand immediate attention as they will affect competitiveness, quality of patient care, and effectiveness of healthcare delivery throughout the industry.

The TEPR 2008 program will offer approximately 15 parallel sessions each day, including:

• Hospital IT Strategy Challenge
• Ambulatory Care
• Technologies
• Nursing
• Pediatrics Day and other Specialty Programs
• Best Health Community Approaches

In addition, TEPR will continue to offer important opportunities to see and hear about EMR systems through its

• EMR Compare SM Demonstrations of leading EMR Systems
• TEPR Awards Program
• Exhibits of over 150 products
