Sincere Apologies for any Cross-Posting.  The EHR Modernization Team Community of Practice in an attempt to reach a broad audience and seek as many responses as possible may have already reached out to some of you.

Reminder

On March 06, 2019, a data call was released to health facilities for the IHS Health IT Modernization Research Project. If you have not already participated, we urge all users of the EHR or any other Health Information Technology (HIT) system to participate in this data call to help enhance Agency decision-making about HIT modernization across the country.

As stated previously, the data call seeks information regarding functionalities that do and do not work well in your EHR, your overall satisfaction with the current EHR system, and what changes you would like to see in an EHR solution in the future. Data arising from this evaluation will be overseen by staff affiliated with the Regenstrief Institute. Participation in this data call is completely voluntary and any responses provided will remain anonymous. Data from this study will be kept confidential and participants may terminate your participation at any time during the questionnaire. Findings from this study will be presented in the aggregate and no identifying information about participating facilities will be provided. The data call will remain open until close of business on March 29, 2019 (THIS IS A CHANGE IN THE CLOSING DATE)

If you have any questions or concerns about the data call instrument, please feel free to contact Dr. Josh Vest, the principal investigator at the Regenstrief Institute by telephone at (317) 278-8410 or by e-mail at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
