- Only 4% percent of physicians reported having an extensive, fully functional electronic records system, and 13% reported having a basic system. Primary care physicians and those practicing in large groups, in hospitals or medical centers, and in the western region of the United States were more likely to use electronic health records. Physicians reported positive effects of these systems on several dimensions of quality of care and high levels of satisfaction. Of the small number of respondents who had a fully functional system, 71% reported that their system was integrated with the electronic system at the hospital where they admit patients, as compared with only 56% of respondents with a basic system (P = 0.006). Among the 83% of respondents who did not have electronic health records, 16% reported that their practice had purchased but not yet implemented such a system at the time of the survey. An additional 26% of respondents said that their practice intended to purchase an electronic-records system within the next 2 years.
- The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or the “HITECH Act”, was introduced in 2009 as a Government response to incentivize the steadfast adoption of health information technology (HIT) to achieve widespread adoption by 2014. The act represents an historic and unparalleled investment in HIT. “This investment lays the groundwork necessary to pursue the President’s goals related to improved health care quality and efficiency and will help transform the way health care is both practiced and delivered.” Source: http://energycommerce.house.gov/documents/20100727/Blumenthal.Testimony.07.27.2010.pdf
- OPAS’ goal is to assist all providers to achieve meaningful use of EHR systems
- While REC are encouraged to work with all providers they will initially focus on “Priority Settings” such as: Individual/small group practices focused on primary care (>10 PCPs) Public and Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs) Community Health Centers and Rural Health Clinics Other settings that predominantly serve uninsured, underinsured, and medically underserved populations
- Initial Goal: Assist at least 100,000 primary care providers in priority settings in achieving Meaningful Use by 2012 Who makes up REC leadership? MDs, RNs, NPs, PharmD’s HIT professionals Former health care executives
- RECs serve as a support center to make EHR implementation easier for providers throughout the entire process, or at any point along the way. RECs provide the following services, and other services to be identified by RECs necessary to assist providers to achieve Meaningful Use. Planning During the initial planning phase, the REC will work side by side a provider to conduct an EHR readiness assessment and develop the EHR project management plan. The REC will assist with: EHR review of your practice EHR vendor selection, identification, evaluation and negotiation Transition The REC lead a practice in transitioning from a paper-based health record environment to an interconnected, patient-centric care system. The REC will assist with: Support around practice and workflow redesign, needs prioritization, functional requirements HIT education, including provider-patient communication on issues related to privacy/security Implementation The REC’s goal is for a provider to achieve effective implementation of a certified EHR product. The REC will assists with: System implementation support, troubleshooting and requirements refinement HIE partnerships and preparations Operate & Maintain The REC will continue to support providers and keep them informed about national developments that may impact their work toward achieving meaningful use of a certified EHR system. The REC will assist with: Achieving meaningful use Maximizing payments, minimizing hassle Preparing for pay for performance measures Continuing to support practice transformation and EHR usability through all stages of meaningful use
- The HITECH Act authorized CMS to develop Medicare and Medicaid Incentive programs to incentive eligible providers to adopt medical records and become meaningful users of HIT.
- There are several unique challenges facing primary care providers, particularly in small practices or clinics, including: administrative and financial burden of implementing new system; operational, technical and infrastructure limitations; and provider and support staff ability to use a new system. Threat of information overload—both at the transitions of care and between disciplines Need to provide for data-sharing between clinical and public health agencies How to use HIT to improve the delivery of healthcare Addressing different views of ‘meaningful’ for different uses and users of HIT HIT system cost Uncertain ROI Lack of trained staff to support IT implementation. Overwhelming number of products / options Technology is not ready; lack of standards Finding an EHR to meet their needs (usability of EHR) Managing patient privacy and security concerns Disbelief in financial incentives
- Under HITECH, several key programs, like the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Program and the Regional Extension Program, have been established to facilitate adoption of EHRs These investments are designed to work together to: Provide the necessary assistance and technical support to providers Enable coordination and alignment within and among states Establish connectivity to the public health community in case of emergencies Assure that the workforce is properly trained and equipped to be meaningful users of EHRs Together these programs build the foundation for every American to benefit from an EHR as part of a modernized, interconnected and vastly improved system of care Source: http://energycommerce.house.gov/documents/20100727/Blumenthal.Testimony.07.27.2010.pdf
- TransforMED is the Academy’s “GO TO” entity for assisting practices implement the PCMH. They have organized their implementation offerings using eight domains that align with the more simplified graphical representation I have just presented to introduce you to the PCMH/Family Medicine model. The Academy will continue to use the PCMH terminology in its advocacy work with outside stakeholders promoting the medical home concept as a national health care reform platform.
