Evaluation of Key Information Summary in Forth Valley Healthcare System

This evaluation project aims to assess the usability and impact of the Key Information Summary (KIS) across EMIS practices in Forth Valley. The study will evaluate the sharing and understanding of information in various care settings to enhance patient outcomes and facilitate information transfer. Key deliverables include training, electronic templates, and a final evaluation report with recommendations for national rollout. The project timeline spans from initial practice meetings to national rollout initiation in May. Progress includes board establishment, practice recruitment, and staff training in KIS usage. Participating practices will engage in evaluation activities, share KIS with patients, and seek patient consent for participation in the pilot. The evaluation methodology includes usability testing, feedback gathering, and glitch tracking to enhance the KIS system for future implementation.

  3. Objectives and Outcomes • To evaluate the Key Information Summary (KIS) across a sample of EMIS practices (n=11) and to test the ability to easily share information on the GP system and ensure that it is viewed and understood by users in A&E (EDIS), OOH (ADASTRA), SAS, NHS24. • Outcome – An report that that will demonstrate; • Views of EMIS practices on the usability of KIS • Whether KIS can be viewed on other users systems • Feedback from recipients on the quality and usefulness of the information • Impact of the information on patient outcomes.

  4. Deliverables • KIS electronic template made available from EMIS developers • Training for participating practice staff • Evaluation methodology developed and agreed • Final project evaluation report with key findings and lessons learned is submitted to National Programme Board • Recommendations along with other Boards piloting KIS to inform final KIS template • FV participation in information and launch events for local and national roll-out.

  5. Key Timelines • Meeting with GP practices – 1st Dec • KIS user interface available – Jan 2012 • KIS training in participating practices – Feb 2012 • Adastra implementation – ?expected Feb / Mar 2012 • KIS ‘live testing’ and evaluation – March / April 2012 • National rollout starting May !!

  6. Progress to date • Local Project Board established • PID document developed • Practice recruitment completed • FV staff involvement in Webex demonstration of screenshots and SEF testing • Project monitoring thro KIS Project Board • Highlight reports to CHP eHealth group • Practice funding released December 11 & March 12 • Raising awareness of KIS pilot

  9. Practice requirements • Training on KIS for participating practices • Transfer existing patients’ ACP onto KIS / create KIS for new patient (minimum n=5) • Obtain patient consent to • Participate in pilot • Share KIS with others • Provide patient with copy of patient leaflet • Provide patients with a print of their KIS

  10. Practice requirements • As a minimum both a GP and a nurse are involved in completing the KIS • Practice Team to participate in evaluation and contribute to evaluation report • Practice Team to attend meetings (pre and post) evaluation

  11. Evaluation • Supported by QI • Developing evaluation methodology • Informing patient of pilot (amend leaflet for pilot) • Information viewed by HCP as part of pilot • Drafted evaluation questionnaire (usability, accessibility and usefulness) • Maintaining issues log of glitches • Seeking Caldecott permission for process
