UTHealth Selects Houston-based ReMedi Health Solutions to Conduct Physician Personalization


June 23, 2021 09:02 AM Eastern Daylight Time HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Houston-based IT consulting firm ReMedi Health Solutions was recently retained by The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) to help spearhead the implementation of Epic Systems for its 2,000 clinicians.

“Physicians are the only ones that can enter the information into the systems that keep hospitals and clinics running as efficiently as possible”

As part of UTHealth’s transition to Epic, the university selected ReMedi Health Solutions to conduct Epic Personalization sessions for its clinicians, including those at UT Physicians, the clinical practice of McGovern Medical School at UTHealth, and UTHealth Harris County Psychiatric Center.

“ReMedi’s physicians were able to train UTHealth’s practitioners prior to switching to Epic,” said Babatope Fatuyi, MD, chief medical information officer at UTHealth. “The virtual model assisted our physicians in making the transition to Epic.”

ReMedi’s virtual model facilitated 2,000 Epic Personalization sessions at UTHealth to take place in just 20 days. ReMedi assisted UTHealth with scheduling and managing each appointment, offering a simple opt-in process for physicians, which resulted in over 70% adoption in the first 10 days of the project. ReMedi leveraged 20 of its EHR physician consultants to conduct peer-to-peer Epic Personalization across 18 specialties, averaging about 120 one-on-one sessions per day. ReMedi’s physicians also supported UTHealth with the implementation of Nuance’s Dragon speech-to-text software that enables physicians to dictate to Epic, in addition to Epic mobile apps Canto and Haiku. The data generated from these sessions tracked and visualized the EHR adoption and progress for UTHealth leadership.

ReMedi Health Solutions’ Chief Executive Officer, Sonny Hyare, MD, believes that the central key to success lies within physician opt-in and EHR understanding. “Physicians are the only ones that can enter the information into the systems that keep hospitals and clinics running as efficiently as possible,” Hyare said. “ReMedi is here to ensure that they know exactly how to utilize the new Epic system and that it is customized to their respective specialties.”

To shore up workflow efficiency, ReMedi built and developed an AI-powered virtual assistant to provide step-by-step workflows and access to tip sheets that help clinicians navigate the new EHR system. ReMedi plans to bring unparalleled value to UTHealth with its physician-driven approach, ensuring that the end-user experience is prioritized throughout the entire implementation process.
