Electronic Medical Records is much more than just computerizing forms and reports. Let MHCD’s Research Institute help you improve your clinical work 

• Going electronic is an opportunity for system transformation that extends beyond the clinical record

• MHCD's Research Institute lets you share our award-winning approaches to data collection, analysis, reporting and the practical application of these techniques for operational improvement and more efficient utilization management

What are the best ways to reduce costs, reduce errors and increase efficiency?

• Our first Lean Event in 2008 focused on how to serve more people and reduce no-show rates for intakes. Our results showed a 12% reduction in the no-show rate as well as 27% increase in service capacity with no increased expenses or staffing  

• MHCD's Research Institute and its award-winning team for excellence in service innovation can help you set lean events to explore areas where you can improve your efficiency and reduce your waste

How do you measure the effectiveness of your Grant-funded programs?

• We are a 2009 SAMHSA Science to Service Award winner due to our ability to measure and report treatment outcomes for homeless women with co-occurring disorders. We were able to empirically reflect the outstanding treatment provided by the program.

• MHCD's Research Institute can help you demonstrate the worth of your programs to external stakeholders, local and Federal funders and develop instruments that will help you find efficiencies in your system, and provide the right level of service at the right time

What if you could identify high and low service outliers qualitatively as well as quantitatively?

• Our innovative instruments provide information for a more objective determination as to whether a change has occurred in treatment, at a rate we could anticipate, and whether it is in the direction we would like to see

• MHCD's Research Institute can help you develop instruments that will help you find efficiencies in your system, and provide the right level of service at the right time
