This document outlines the implementation plan for enhancing Electronic Medical Records (EMR) systems, focusing on roles, responsibilities, and timelines for various stakeholders. Starting January 2010, activities include reviewing conclusions and recommendations, suggesting an implementation timeline, identifying lead agencies, and addressing potential challenges. Key actions encompass workshops, evaluations, training, and regional sensitization initiatives to ensure EMR readiness at decentralized levels. The overall objective is to strengthen coordination and build human resource capacity for effective EMR utilization.

Challenges • Time estimation without very clear and specific WBS. • Assigning very specific roles and responsibilities – we are doing that now, but there also needs to be a clear coordinating mechanism. • Format of the draft implementation plan as categorized by function makes it difficult to plan – should preferably done in MS Project or OWB • What should the END DATE be?
