Mississippi was recently upgraded to the "high" flu activity category, with three of its four neighboring states in the "very high" flu activity category. This means it is extra important to stay vigilant in protecting yourself and your loved ones from the flu by avoiding crowded areas, staying home when you are sick and practicing good hand hygiene.

It is also not too late to get your flu shot. Several SCRMC clinics offer walk-in flu shots. Please visit South Central Family Medicine or Ellisville Family Medicine to receive your shot today.

South Central and its consortium partners remain committed to improving the patient experience. As health care advances, physicians continually refine how they evaluate, diagnose and treat. With Epic’s advanced AI capabilities, physicians can work more efficiently, dedicating more time and attention to what matters most, delivering compassionate, comprehensive care to every patient.

“These tools will enable physicians to focus on the patient interaction and less on the tedious clerical and follow-up tasks that are necessary for patient care,” Chief Medical Officer W. Mark Horne, MD, said.

Physicians can expect to spend less time clicking and typing and more time focusing on the patient, with AI acting as a digital colleague that prepares information, handles paperwork and provides insights, directly combating clinician burnout.
