Under the Hood Learning Objectives Lecture b Identify the health IT functions that support a generic ambulatory patient care process. Identify the health IT functions that support a generic inpatient care process. 2
Care Processes: HIT Registration Registration Admission, Discharge Transfer Systems (ADT) Bed Management Systems (BMS) Unique Identifier i.e. Medical Record Number (MRN) 3
Care Processes: HIT Support Reviewing Patient Information Retrieve patient record o Verifying demographics, etc. o Past medical history, etc. Talking, Observing, Examining 4
Care Processes: HIT Documentation Documentation Copious o Pick lists, voice recognition, structured notes, integrated records, patient-centered, kiosks, PHRs Knowledge Resources & Decision Support 5
Care Processes: Taking Action Performing/Ordering/Reviewing CPOE Computerized Prescriber Order Entry E-prescribing, Consults, Treatments, Diets, Labs, Tests Guideline based Care: http://www.guideline.gov/ National Quality Measures Clearinghouse: http://www.qualitymeasures.ahrq.gov/ 6
Care Processes: Discharge and Education Pre-Discharge/Discharge Ties into ADT, bed management, discharge planning Education 7
Care Processes: Reporting Reporting & Reimbursement External (CDC, Immunization Registries, CMS, etc.) & Internal (Practice Improvement, Trending, etc.) $$$ 8
Under the Hood Summary Lecture b HIT support for care processes are similar and dissimilar depending on setting. Core functions remain static. Emerging sites of care & transformation of healthcare point to needs for information exchange/interoperable systems. Teams Patients at the core Shift away from acute to ambulatory HIT pathway to safety/quality/effectiveness 9
