NOA consultants approved for providing ongoing on-site support of Eclipsys Sunrise Clinical Manager™ EMR system at Cancer Treatment Centers of America

November 2008 – During October and November 2008 NOA’s Kevin Rogers, RN continued providing both on-site and remote technical configuration support to Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA).  This initiative started out as a staff augmentation engagement where Kevin was focusing solely on order set configuration.  Over the duration of the engagement his role has expanded into many facets of the project in order to enable other members of the CTCA project team to prioritize working on other projects.  Kevin has fulfilled a multitude of technical support roles encompassing the following scope:

  • Design and configuration of Order Sets

  • Technical Help Desk Support

  • Clinical Documentation Support

  • Co-chairing Project Work Groups

Subsequent to providing support on order sets during earlier phases of the engagement, Kevin is now focusing on clinical documentation configuration.  In November he assisted in the development (configuration ) of a new structured note as just one example of what this engagement has expanded into.  This new note is specifically for History and Physical related documentation and intended initially for the WRMC site location.  The structured note is substantial in content and complexity and it includes multiple observations, prose writer sets and QA Sets.  This project engagement is yet another example of how NOA’s consultants are able to provide multi-module solutions for our customers with flexibility on how to best utilize our staff augmentation resources.
