Manuscript Writing Workshop

Date:
Friday, October 9, 2015
Time:
9:00 am - 10:00 am

We are looking forward to a presentation by Heather Lindstrom PhD and Daniel Fahey, M.D. MBA from the Department of Emergency Medicine (see attached). They will be discussing their manuscript draft: Lack of Provider Impact on Patient Length of Stay in the Emergency Department.

Nik Satchidanand, PhD, has also offered to share one of his manuscript drafts. The title of his manuscript is: “Reduction in Hospital utilization through use of Diabetes Registries with Health Information Exchange”

The manuscript is based on data derived from the Beacon regional quality improvement initiative. In 2010, Western New York was selected as one of 17 Beacon Communities nationwide by the United States Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology. The Beacon Community Cooperative Agreement Program provided funding for three years to enable these communities to build and expand on regional health information technology (IT) infrastructure and demonstrate how health IT could advance patient-centered care, while achieving better health, better care, at lower cost.
