What's the best way for physicians to prepare for EHR (Electronic Health Records) training for themselves and their offices?

In a tough economic climate, it’s no wonder that the belt-tightening has trickled down to IT investments. Many physicians are scaling down their plans and adopting a wait-and-see approach -- hospitals are considering holding off renovations or plans to increase capacity and the purchase of clinical technology or equipment is being pushed to the back burner. Among these downsides, though, there is a silver lining: practices are now being forced to move toward efficiencies in health information technology (HIT).

Medical practices are often ill equipped to handle the mounds of paperwork and maze of bureaucracy required to receive full compensation from health insurance companies. As this process becomes more complex, physicians are finding it increasingly difficult to run a healthy practice.
