Busting EHR to EDC Myths
Manual re-entering data that exists in a site’s Electronic Health Record (EHR) system into Electronic Data Capture (EDC) forms is inefficient and error prone. Traditional EHR to EDC systems have shown promise but struggled to be adopted at scale. These approaches have created a number of misconceptions about what’s now possible with a new model and solution.
Watch Medidata’s Samir Jain, Senior Director, EHR Solutions and Dan Braga SVP, Trial Management & Design Solutions ‘bust’ these EHR to EDC myths and explain how sponsors and sites can implement a scalable solution with Medidata Health Record Connect.
Myth 1: “EHR to EDC Doesn’t Scale”
Watch Samir and Dan tackle the misconception that there isn’t a scalable solution for EHR to EDC data entry assistance.
Myth 2: “It’s a lot of effort to implement EHR to EDC for sites and sponsors”
Watch how the team debunks the myth that it’s hard to get an EHR to EDC solution started on a clinical trial.
Myth 3: “It creates more work for the site to use EHR to EDC than to continue doing manual data entry”
See how Dan & Samir expose the false notion that it takes so much effort for a site to implement and use an EHR to EDC solution that they’re better off continuing to do this data re-entry manually.
Myth 4: “Site users want to be completely removed from the process of EHR to EDC”
Our experts disprove the misconception that users at the site level don’t want to be a part of how EHR data gets entered into their EDC system and in fact they want to have their eyes on the data to ensure accuracy because no automation can be perfect.
Myth 5: “Sponsors should wait before implementing EHR to EDC”
See how Dan & Samir challenge the myth that sponsors should still wait to see what develops with EHR to EDC solutions, and instead, they should get started now because asking sites to manually re-enter data from one system to another should be a thing of the past.
