This study aims to present a proof of concept of a dashboard on a set of indicators of access to primary healthcare (PHC) based on electronic medical records (EMRs).
This research builds on a multi-method design study including (1) a systematic review, (2) a pilot phase and (3) the development of a dashboard.
Eight indicators were carefully selected and successfully extracted from EMRs obtained from 151 PHC providers. Indicators of access over time, as well as among providers and among clinics, have been enabled in the dashboard.
EMR data enabled the development of a real-time dashboard on access, giving PHC providers a reliable portrait of their own practice, its evolution over time and how it compares with those of their peers.
本研究旨在展示一个基于电子病历(EMR)的初级医疗保健(PHC)获取指标仪表板的概念验证。
本研究基于包括(1)系统评价、(2)试点阶段和(3)仪表板开发在内的多种方法设计研究。
从 151 名 PHC 提供者获得的 EMR 中,经过仔细选择和成功提取,共确定了 8 项指标。该仪表板可实时显示一段时间内、各提供者之间以及各诊所之间的就诊指标。
EMR 数据使访问的实时仪表板得以开发,为 PHC 提供者提供了其自身实践情况、随时间变化的演变情况以及与同行比较情况的可靠概况。
