The training location is amidst hundreds of shops, many great restaurants to choose from for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, a movie theatre, bookstore, and a nice hotel.  We flew into Dallas\/Fortworth, and took a taxi to the hotel.  We didn&#8217;t need a car, as we were able to walk around this large outdoor shopping complex easily from our hotel.<\/p>\n<p>The core EHR training was difficult at times because a good portion of the training is going through the templates to understand how they function.  And of course the training is geared toward internal medicine, or family practice.  I was trying to follow along looking through the dermatology templates, but there are many specialty specific things that didn&#8217;t match up.<\/p>\n<p>We knew ahead of time that this would be the case, so we scheduled a Webex for dermatology specific training with a trainer who knows the dermatology templates.<\/p>\n<p>During our dermatology specific training there were several times when the trainer had to apologize for the inadequacies of the template.  Other times when I asked questions about how to document a particular item, or why the system allowed you to document inconsistent information (pathology template allows you to have a diagnosis different than the ICD code selected), she was stumped.<\/p>\n<p>The training is essential, and it gives you a base so you understand how things work.  I really feel that playing around in your test database is the most useful training method after you have these basics.<\/p>\n<p>Once you play with the system, you&#8217;ll quickly figure out what works, and how it is best modified.  I&#8217;ve decided to extensively modify the NextGen dermatology templates.<\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-119\" data-postid=\"119\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-119 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We went to Southlake Texas for our Core EHR training.
