We are experiential learning providers of EMR simulations for colleges and universities. We provide academic training on today’s most in-demand health software. Choice Learning develops healthcare curriculum at the post-secondary level and provides access to EMR software that has been incorporated into our hands-on training. Our partners are QHR Technologies (Accuro), Jane (Jane App), and CognisantMD (Ocean).
Choice Learning provides a cloud-based industry EMR simulation that supports asynchronous learning. Our unique solution allows an industry EMR software to work in a classroom setting. Our simulation allows each student’s work to be kept only in their view and the instructor can ensure academic integrity. Without our unique user setup, patient lists, and workbook, a student’s knowledge of an EMR could not be reliably demonstrated.
Decide to act right now and transform your courses. Transfer the software management and updates to us and use a wide variety of current training materials and clinically relevant tasks. Your students benefit from having access to multiple industry EMR vendors and you can choose what you want to use over many courses. We use a subscription-based model that can be easily added to any program. To fast track your start, add us to your book or material list and know we have you covered.

How Can The EMR Accelerator Transform Your Program?
SIMULATION eBOOKs
The EMR Accelerator workbook series are a comprehensive customized training tool containing tasks on each of the modules in the software. It is used to cover important concepts related to most aspects of the Accuro electronic medical record system. Choose a version of the eBook: the Health Office Administration EMR Simulation, the Nursing EMR Simulation, the Dental EMR Simulation, or the Pharmacy EMR Simulation. Realistic scenarios and a unique patient list are provided so students can complete tasks such as:
- Entering patient data
- Billing for services rendered
- Importing patient test results
- Exporting a list of provider patients
- Sending messages
- Entering a patient care plan
- Creating prescriptions
- Uploading a digital dental x-ray
- Completing tasks relating to a patient
Your students can say they have hands-on experience with a live, certified EMR and can reliably demonstrate their work on a highly recognized electronic medical records system.
EXPERT SUPPORT
An experienced Office Administration Health Services instructor leads our team. Extensive support resources are available to students. Our goal is to make your experience teaching an EMR solution a positive one.
VIDEO TUTORIALS
Video tutorials cover all modules. These are helpful for new instructors to become familiar with the software quickly. The videos are also great for students who have missed a class and need to catch up without requiring instructor’s valuable time.
ACCESSIBILITY
Students and Instructors can access the EMR database anywhere via the web app whether it’s for finishing assignments or grading student’s work.
