Hi Jason,

I will find out I know this was in issue in our PT department.

They found that there was a long wait time with Assyrian they stated they were on hold several times for over 20-25mins. They then spoke to the patient who also was able to speak Arabic. As soon as they found out they switched over to an Arabic interpreter.

I reached out to our PT associate I will forward you her details.

Thanks,

    Harris Memorial Hospital Case Study

    Your healthcare organization, Harris Memorial Hospital, needs to look at both “hard” and “soft” savings when considering a system’s return on investment. Today’s presentation we will take a deeper look at the soft returns when implementing an electronic health record (EHR) system.
