Filter by:This study is a pragmatic, comparative effectiveness trial that will randomize approximately 12,000 adult surgical patients on an operating room (OR) level to a control or to an intervention group. All OR clinicians will have access to decision support software within the OR as a part of enhanced standard intraoperative care. The ACT will monitor patients in both groups and will provide additional support to the clinicians assigned to intervention ORs.
The purpose of the research is to identify the prevalence of preconception health (PCH) risk factors in the Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph (WDG) catchment area and to determine whether or not a client-driven electronic preconception health risk assessment tool "My Health eSnapshot", for use during healthcare visits, will increase preconception health knowledge and behaviour change among women of reproductive age (15-49 years).
The purpose of this study is to support enhancement, implementation, and evaluation of an improved model for delivering improved primary care to high-risk older adults through the use of health IT tools, focusing on issues related to the patient-centered primary care home (PCPCH) and other similar high-value elements that are proposed to improve patient outcomes. During this study, participating clinics will utilize the already-implemented Integrated Care Coordination Information System (ICCIS). Clinic staff will meet with a practice facilitator (monthly and as needed), and will track study activities and submit invoices via ICCIS reporting. These invoices will be used to simulate a shared savings model where clinics will be reimbursed based on their progress and effort towards their goals. Clinics will set and work towards goals that they have chosen. Goals for the control arm are self-selected by the clinics themselves; goals for the invention arm are related to high-value elements (HVE) that have been identified as areas that can improve patient outcomes. These HVE are: 1. Evidence-based Care Management Based on Need 2. Identification of At-Risk Populations 3. Patient Engagement and Alerts Based on Goals 4. Integrated Information for Care Management, especially around Utilization 5. Population Management Tools
Cluster randomized controlled trial comparing care coordination incentives to pay for performance (quality measure) incentives in clinics on utilization, cost, quality, and patient experience.
The purpose of this study is to assess usage of the virtual health record (VHR), and determine the effects of this technology on healthcare utilization.
