This project, the Technologies for Enhancing Access to Health Management (TEAhM) project, was a pilot study which implemented and evaluated telehealth kiosks in community-based senior centers.
This case study examined four different HIE organizations to explore stakeholders’ perspectives on benefits and barriers of participating in health information exchange.
The Research Agenda for a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) conference convened a multidisciplinary group to discuss the research agenda needed to move PCMH from a demonstration model to an evidenced-based standard of care.
In this project, the National Quality Forum reconvened the Health Information Technology Expert Panel (HITEP-II) to gather, synthesize, and refine clinical workflow maps, focusing on care processes related to the previously prioritized set of measures.
This project conducted research on the role of human factors in the provision of health care in the home.
In this project, the Center for Studying Health System Change conducted research exploring the effective use of electronic prescribing (e-prescribing) in physician practices and pharmacies.
This project held a consensus conference in November 2012 to discuss nurse’s roles in supporting patient engagement and to develop a strategic plan to enhance nurses’ abilities to engage and support patients in this area.
This project developed a process for translating narrative, unstructured, evidence-based clinical recommendations and performance measures into a structured, coded format that can be implemented into health information technology systems.
This study investigated the experiences of physician practices using e-prescribing, examining physicians’ perceptions of benefits of use, and the reasons for the lag between policy goals and actual use.
This project assessed the feasibility and measurability care coordination activities and found that the electronic health record was infrequently used to support care coordination.
