“The Foundation” for Go-Live
Success
4Super User Overview
The Super User Program provides a formalized network of embedded leaders who will
serve as champions of Epic, support user adoption, and solicit feedback to maximize
implementation success through the proactive engagement of end users.
The Importance of Super Users
• Most familiar with department specific workflows
• Help lead change and increase staff acceptance
• Shared accountability for success of the program
• Early engagement creates excitement
• Helps increase user adoption and shorten learning curve
• Faster response time for issue resolution
• Increases staff satisfaction
• Knowledge stays with the department
10Super User Activities
Activities
• Participate in Super User kickoff and huddle meetings
• Attend all Epic training defined for their role
• Support training classrooms
• Participate in dress rehearsals and pre go-live activates
• Review just-in-time training material prior to go-live
• Provide floor support on assigned unit during go-live (out of the count)
• Identify staff who may require additional training or support
11Areas of Support in the Practice
We break down support in to three core areas.
• Front Desk/Administrative/Billing/Ancillary
• Clinical Non Providers/Techs/Pharmacists
• Providers
When we provide Super User support we are attempting to assign a support
resource to one of these three areas.
Additional Epic Support Resources will be provided by both HCI Group and Epic
Corporation. These expert resources are often able to support all three areas
within a Unit, Service, or Practice.
12Support Types During Go-Live:
HCI &
Super Epic ATEs
End Users
Users
End User has an issue with Epic. Super User is the workflow HCI ATE Support will attempt to
Seeks out a Super User first or expert for the department. If resolve the issue. Either the SU
if unavailable an HCI ATE for issue not resolved seek out HCI or HCI Support will submit a
Support ATE. ticket to the Command Center.
* The term ATE is a support resource working to support end users At the Elbow.
** HCI is the Vendor Selected to Provide Additional Epic Support.
*** Epic Corporation is also sending expert ATE resources to assist.
13Two Types of Super Users
Out of Staffing Super User
Usually with 5 or more people on a team, 1 employee
from the area is nominated and dedicated to being Super.
In Staffing Super User
Usually with small teams (1-3 people), 1
individual could be made super but will remain
in staffing during go-live. An HCI (External Epic
Support Vendor) ATE will be there to provide
primary support. Super User will support if
available but will be the ongoing support for
their team after go-live.
14Role of Super
UserSuper User Role and Responsibilities
• Provide courteous, calm and reassuring support to end users during shift
• Frontline support and frontline representative for Epic in your department
• Reduce fear and anxiety–Epic is a tool, it does not replace thinking and
judgment
• Patient safety and good nursing practice must prevail
• Answer questions and provide workflow assistance
• Consult with HCI Epic Support if unable to resolve end user concerns
• Attend meetings as instructed
• Identify trends and communicate with support leadership
• Communicate, Review and Post Go-live Updates in department
• Document Enhancement suggestions and review with Floor Support
• Wear at all times your Epic project shirt and ID badge for easy identificationRole of Super User in End User Training Classroom Assistant As part of your development, Super Users are asked to support an average of 16 - 24 hours of Epic end user application training class as a classroom assistant for their peers. Super users are assistants to the credentialed trainers and do not teach classes on their own. As a Classroom Assistant you will help end users navigate through the system and answer end users’ questions in preparation for supporting end users during go-live. This will take place during the 10 weeks of Epic End User Training.
Go-Live Support
Timeframe
• 2-4 weeks post go-live, with diminishing responsibilities as incidences decrease.
Scheduling
• The go-live schedule is built for 3 weeks. After 2 weeks, Super Users will be notified
if the schedule will change. The go-live schedule will be managed by HCI and the
HIP Command Center. Super Users will be accountable for monitoring and
complying with their support schedule.
Anticipated commitment
• A dedicated Super User must be released from all other responsibilities while
performing the role of Super User. There may be some “non-dedicated” staff that
will continue performing regular job duties and function as a Super User as time
allows.

25Appendix
Super User: Huddles Huddle #1: Super User Orientation. (1 hour) This will be a WebEx meeting so no one has to travel and we will record the session and plan to make it available for anyone that misses the meeting. Huddle #2: Change Management. (2 hours) Huddle 2 will be conducted by BJC’s change management team. The goal will be to help prepare the SU for how to manage the various reactions they may encounter while helping staff adopt the new workflows and system. This will be an in-person meeting so you will need to determine the best locations and times to attend these meetings. Huddle #3: Command Center Preparation: (2 hours) This meeting will also be in-person as this is the last meeting before go-live and SU will be receiving all the instructions on how/where to report for work and how to communicate with the command center. This will be a very full agenda with lots of information. It will be important for each SU to get their questions answered and leave the meeting confident in what they need to do.
