Organizational Background www.institute2000.org
The Institute for Family Health 15 Community Health Centers – • Bronx, 4 Manhattan, 6 Mid-Hudson Valley 8 homeless healthcare sites 1 School based health programs 3 Dental centers 2 Community Mental Health Centers 2 Free Clinics 230,000 primary care visits 72,000 patients
The Institute has been fully paperless since September 2002 on Epic Systems (Verona, Wisconsin) Electronic Health Record and Practice Management System In 2007 the Institute doubled in size with the acquisition of the Mid Hudson Family Health Institute. In the first month all 6 sites were live on the PMS. Six months later all sites were fully live on the EHR.
Why develop an HIV registry? • Aggregate view of HIV related outcomes; • Timely accessibility of data; and • Discover what interventions are needed and for whom.
Institute’s Strategy • The Institute seeks to ensure that all patients with HIV/AIDS receive high quality care consistent with expert recommendations. • We intend to develop an HIV/AIDS patient registry populated by electronic health record data.
Goals and Objectives • To create and implement a guideline-based registry of patients with HIV/AIDS that can be used as a tool to improve quality of care across multiple care sites; and • Develop a registry of HIV/AIDS patients that can be used to identify and address racial and ethnic disparities in care and outcomes by providing outreach to patients at highest risk of poor outcomes.
Where to start? • Plan • Meet • Design
Who is on the development team? • The team should be multidisciplinary. • Including members from all departments who interact and treat patients with HIV and EHR support staff and a report writer.
Documenting the specifications • Identify the specific parameters. • Share with project team • Review a test run of the report
Percentage of HIV/AIDS Patients Who Received Selected Screening over the Past 12 Months
Final Thoughts • User friendly • Time efficient • Ongoing and always current • Easily display trends • Identify needs quickly and • Effectively plan interventions
