An Enterprise Master Patient Index (EMPI) can help an organization proactively keep all of their patient data straight. This leads to fewer duplicate patients in the system and also curtails overlay occurrences, both of which are extremely important to patient safety and security. In an Electronic Health Record (EHR) environment the stakes are high for patient identity errors, and an EMPI is the best solution currently available. Beth Just, Karen Proffitt, and Grant Landsbach discuss the key success factors, planning, roles, challenges, and rewards of their EMPI journey at Exempla Healthcare in Denver, CO. Their implementation of a fully functional EMPI has made Exempla a national model.
