"It can be challenging learning a new computer system. I've worked in three clinics over the past 7 years, all with different systems. It took me just a few days to become efficient and not need assistance."

This could possibly be a sneaky way the interviewer is asking what your weakness is. Not a problem because you already have that answer memorized. For this particular question think back to the job description. Was there anything that stood out and made you scratch your head? Did they throw in a name of a software program you've never worked with? Are you used to working on your own and the position will have you working more independent? Whatever the challenge is, own it. State the challenge to the interviewer but spin it in a way that it will become your newest strength.
Here's and example answer: "I'm familiar with the accounting system you all use but haven't used it in years. I do know that I can reference the user guide and my fellow co-workers so I know I will catch on quick. I like to take detailed notes, screen shots and just dive in and do it. I'm up for the challenge and excited to learn something new."
