Even though EHRs have replaced paper health records aiming to make data management more convenient, managing health records is still an apprehension for patients. With the introduction of BlueButton 2.0, patients will have access to 4 years of their health record. This gives the patients more confidence in their health care and make data more comprehensive and easily accessible. By facilitating access to patient health history, it has the potential to drive down Medicare spending and improve health outcomes.
In December 2015, I graduated from North Carolina State University with a Bachelors in Psychology. I am currently pursuing my Masters in Public Health (MPH) which will allow me to continue strengthening my skills and knowledge within the public health sector.

I have been working in the healthcare industry for over 6 years. I have a Masters in Healthcare Administration from University of Phoenix, where I graduated with honors and a 3.98 GPA. More recently this past year I was interested in learning more and to help me become a better manager and find gaps in key performance metrics so I decided to get a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Certification. This I received from Lawrence Tech University in November 2015. I am currently working at WSUPG as a Healthcare Operation Manager where I manage 6 clinics for the WSUPG with the front desk staff of 16 total employees. Some of the departments include Family medicine, OB-GYN, Infectious Disease, STD, TB, and the Neurosurgery department.
