Critical Measures for HIT Integration

• Reconciled list of patient medications used vs. prescribed vs. filled
• Physician alerts for drug interactions
• physician alerts for test results
• physician prompts at the time of visit
• alert to chronic illnes risks, and query existing registries
• patient review of EMR data --- and updates
• predict quality by risk-based scores

measure the following which predict success:

• clinical time saved
• usability complaints/support tickets
• use vs. customization vs. departments
• amount of training sessions required in minutes or hours

measure the following before and after HIT use (survey):

1. relative advantage consistent with values and needs
2. ease of understanding and use
3. consistent with values and needs
4. experimentation
5. ovservability and example satisfaction

Advancing Meaningful Use of EHR

Critical areas of focus for Healthcare IT (HIT) include:

1. translating incorporating the results of research into health IT products
2.

Creating breakthrough solutions, technologies, and services, which may be applied in health IT in the near- and long-term, and which address identified challenges and opportunities relevant to the adoption and meaningful use of health IT;
3.

Identifying a range of model (proof-of-concept) systems that serve as motivating and unifying forces to drive fundamental research in health IT; and
4.

Encouraging effective use of health IT through rapid dissemination of research results, findings on innovations and novel tools, to developers and purchasers of health IT

Major topics for research could include:

• Creating models that support dynamic abstraction of clinical information
• Techniques for parsimonious information display information that simplifies, while capturing essential features of a clinical decision problem
• Understanding decision making under stress and time pressure, and its implications for cognitive support
• Communication to clinicians, addressing message content and delivery, that blends with workflow
• Methods to support decisions that involve multiple stakeholders, taking into account their preferences and utilities
• Methods for minimizing and simplifying, when it is necessary, manual data input by clinicians

Be careful changing app name in Xcode

Apart from the fact that the PRODUCT_NAME var simply did not work, changing the name:

also means you need a new profile for ad hoc! C'mon Apple! Sheesh.
