We evaluated a national peer coaching program\u2014the National EHRM Supplemental Staffing Unit (NESSU)\u2014designed to support clinicians during the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs\u2019 (VA\u2019s) transition to a new EHR. Our goal was to assess NESSU\u2019s reach, perceived usefulness, and association with key EHR user outcomes, and to characterize how NESSU achieved its observed impacts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Using a convergent mixed-methods design, we surveyed EHR users at the most recent VA facility to implement the new EHR. Descriptive statistics summarized program reach and perceived helpfulness. Regression models assessed associations between NESSU participation and 3 outcomes: burnout, EHR-related stress, and EHR confidence. Qualitative data included 62 interviews with users and open-ended survey responses. We used structured coding and thematic analysis to identify themes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 385 respondents, 58.4% reported receiving NESSU support and 83.6% of those rated it as helpful. NESSU participation was associated with lower rates of burnout (29% vs 41%, P\u2009=\u20090.016) but not with differences in EHR confidence or EHR-related stress. Qualitative analysis yielded 4 themes describing how NESSU functioned (filling education gaps, providing responsive support, offering expert guidance, and drawing upon notable interpersonal skills) and one theme describing its overall impact.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n
