Series Overview

Are you frustrated by the complexity of our clinical systems and wish you could get the EHR to work for you and your patients? Are you curious about informatics, the ways it already impacts the practice of medicine and what is coming soon? The Informatics Educational Seminar Series is the one place at Geisinger to understand the positive impacts informatics is already making in patient outcomes and provider satisfaction and the future of informatics and data analytics in health care.

Target Audience

This activity is designed for physicians (both MD and DO) from all specialties and subspecialties of medicine with a specific focus for our board- certified informatics physicians and trainees, nurse informaticians and nursing leaders, pharmacist informaticians and pharmacist managers. Other learner groups such as directors, managers and analysts throughout informatics, information technology and data analytics, researchers in our Research Institute, and learners at Geisinger's College of Health Sciences at multiple levels would also benefit from this education.
