Agenda highlights
Monday April 19th will have Jay showing us all the new programming for 09/10 including the new BC billing and WCB and the new prescription module. There will be time to ask questions and discuss future programming. You will see a bunch of cool new tools built by OSCAR users as well as OSCAR CAISI used to run the homeless shelters in Toronto. There will be a talk about how patient data is stored and shared and a session on getting more out of OSCAR (using features you might not know about). For fun there will be the annual OSCAR awards and a participatory session at the end of the day looking at different modes of data entry (typing, templates, tablets, voice dictation - and how they compare head to head!
Monday afternoon there will be a separate meeting for OSCAR MOAs
Tuesday April 20 will be a series of concurrent in-depth workshops for those who want to really learn more about different OSCAR functions. There will be sessions for OSCAR beginners and advanced OSCAR users. There is a session on MyOSCAR (the personally controlled health record), OSCAR Integration (networking separate OSCAR installations) and OSCAR billing. There will also be working meetings on improving chronic disease management and evidence based practice with OSCAR as well as the OSCAR website and online manual.
Tuesday afternoon there will be a meeting for support providers.
On the evening on Monday April 19th there will be a demo of OSCAR for our colleagues who want to learn more about OSCAR. Please spread the word using this invitation.
Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
