This research developed methods for measuring electronic health record (EHR) communication networks—defined as EHR-based information-sharing connections among healthcare professionals—for virtual care teams and examined the relationship between EHR communication networks and care quality.
Researchers successfully developed Decision Precision+, a shared decision making tool that increases appropriate screening for lung cancer, as a SMART on FHIR app that pulls data from the electronic health record to enable providers to have an individualized risk-benefit discussion with at-risk patients on whether lung cancer screening is right for them.
This research will examine the factors affecting cancer patients’ use of an electronic patient safety event reporting system to communicate adverse medication-related events to their care team.
This research will adapt and disseminate an effective clinical decision support tool and a patient-facing SMART on FHIR application to help patients and their doctors make informed, patient-centered decisions regarding lung cancer screening.
