Meaningful Use is a federal program that aims to improve healthcare in the US through the use of electronic health records (EHR) by establishing objectives and measures that eligible hospitals and professionals must meet. The goals are to engage patients, improve care quality and coordination, and advance public health. However, many hospitals face challenges in understanding requirements, gaining staff buy-in, and meeting clinical quality measures. Successful strategies include studying workflows, identifying advocates, training clinicians, and supporting mobility and security. Stage 2 criteria will be more stringent and failure to meet Meaningful Use can impact federal funding.

New technological trends in nursing uqu oct2015gracegrace lindsay
This presentation provides a short historical overview of the evolving use of technology in nursing practice by means of an introduction to the topic. A review is then presented on the latest classes of devices in use in healthcare delivery (with examples), their supporting communication systems and considerations of their strengths and limitations. A key meesage to the healthcare sector is that this technological advancement is speeding ahead of policy, procedural and infrastuctural considerations. The personal use of devices has become embedded in practice leading to random and unregulated use and limited attention to codes of safe practice and recommended standards of care.

Uptu è un nuovo social network volto a migliorare la qualità della vita delle persone nel territorio e a stimolare la partecipazione sociale. L’obiettivo è quello di realizzare smart community orientate alla cooperazione tra cittadini, istituzioni e altri soggetti (associazioni, media locali), sperimentando nuove forme di partecipazione e coinvolgendo i cittadini su temi come la sicurezza, la gestione del territorio, i problemi che si incontrano nella vita quotidiana.
Uptu, quindi, è molto più di un sito di raccolta di reclami e problemi: offre un ambiente collaborativo internazionale (è disponibile in 6 lingue) in cui ognuno è stimolato a diventare soggetto attivo entrando a fare parte di gruppi di interesse e comunità di vicinato, condividendo idee e proponendo soluzioni, sviluppando progetti e mettendo a disposizione degli altri le proprie competenze o risorse.
L’App di Uptu permette l’invio e la ricezione in push, in tempo reale, di segnalazioni geolocalizzate riguardanti eventi, buone pratiche, problemi o emergenze relative a sei ambiti: mobilità, consumatore, persona e società, animali, ambiente, beni pubblici e privati. L’utente può quindi – mediante la ricezione di avvisi in push – essere tempestivamente aggiornato su ciò che succede attorno a lui (rispetto agli ambiti di suo interesse) e confrontarsi con la community mediante le attività partecipative presenti in ogni segnalazione: la possibilità di inserire commenti, testimonianze, suggerimenti e risoluzioni.
Healthcare IT has a last mile problem. Use of new clinical systems is being mandated, often at the expense of effectiveness and efficiency. The challenge is balancing the implementation of these new requirements with the need to optimize workflow for doctors and nurses. Learn how increasing the usability of clinical systems will result in increased productivity, improved clinician satisfaction, and improved patient care.

Remote monitoring: Direction for ResearchMarc Lange
Remote monitoring will happen! Integrating ICT in health care is about progress and who can stop the progress?
Also, patients are about to demand for it. Have in mind their current interest for mHealth and note that in a large number of trials, the feedback received from patients and their carer is positive: they feel more secure when receiving feedback on the data they sent remotely and if attention has been paid to educate them in interpreting the data they are sending, they can become a full partner of the care team!
Finally, remote monitoring services – combined with self-care – offer strategic opportunities to modernise health care systems by enabling them to become more proactive, better empower patients and citizens and, in the end, use health care resources more efficiently.
To identify future directions for research, this lecture will consider remote monitoring from three viewpoints: what evidence is still needed, how best to support decision making in favour of doing remote monitoring, and how best to support the deployment of remote monitoring in routine care. Results and lessons learned from two European Commission co-financed projects, Renewing Health and United4Health , will be used to illustrate the messages.

2. Meaningful Use for Hospitals
Meaningful Use: Using certified EHR technology to improve quality,
safety, efficiency, and reduce health disparities in healthcare.
Goals of Meaningful Use:
• Engage patients and families in their healthcare
• Improve quality of care
• Improve care coordination
• Improve population and public health
• Maintain privacy and security
4. Reaching Stage 1
• 110,000 Eligible Professionals attested & received funds (20% of
all eligible professionals)
• 2,400 Hospitals attested & received funds (48% of eligible
hospitals)
Source: Health Data Management
6. Meaningful Use Objectives
Eligible Hospitals must complete (Stage 1):
• 14 core objectives
• 5 objectives out of 10 from menu set
• 15 total Clinical Quality Measures
Eligible Hospitals must complete (Stage 2):
• All requirements build on Stage 1 reqs.
• 16 core objectives
• 2 objectives out of 5 from menu set
• 49 total Clinical Quality Measures
7. KPMG Study
• 71% of hospitals report being more than halfway to completion of
the adoption of EHR, but only 48% confident they will meet Stage
1 of MU
• Barriers reported:
– Difficulty understanding the requirements
– Training and change management efforts
– Data capture
– Generating the metrics required
8. RWJF Study
• Those close to accomplishing MU:
– 40% had not implemented drug-drug and drug-allergy interaction
checks
– 35% could not provide patients with a copy of their record
– 30% had not implemented computerized physician order entry
(CPOE)
9. Heart of the Issue
• Clinician resistance
– Getting clinicians to use the EHR as part of their daily work,
particularly those physicians that are affiliated with, but not
employed by the hospital
• Security and compliance
– Unattended workstations/devices with patient data
– Passwords that are shared, written down
– Tightening security creates more tasks for clinicians, creating a
vicious circle
10. Solution Approaches
• Study and understand workflows
– Workflows vary significantly from department to department
– Focus on functions throughout the clinician’s day and across
departments
– Understand the value of order sets and coordinate their use within
the EHR system
• Identify advocates and super-users
– Clearly identify workflow improvements and other visible clinician
benefits
– Focus on those clinicians who are most difficult and take the time to
get them the one-on-one support they need
11. Solution Approaches
• Use clinicians to train clinicians
– Provides the trainee with the support of someone who understands
the delivery of care
– Make training available at the convenience of the physician
– Have on-demand training tools available
• Implement single sign-on
– Particularly where security has been increased, tasking the clinicians
with signing in and out repeatedly creates frustration
– Immediately unburdens the clinician from password management
– Consider passive proximity devices and biometrics
12. Solution Approaches
• Re-authentication for ePrescribing and CPOE
– Consider similar proximity/bio-authentication approaches
• Support clinical roaming
– Virtual desktops allow clinician access wherever they may be in the
facility
– Allows opening a patient record in one location, then accessing it
immediately in another
13. Potential Impact of Stage 2 Criteria for MU
• Increased thresholds
• Menu measures moving to Core measures
• Impact of 40% imaging requirements
• Clinical decision support rules from one to five required
• “Packed” versus “unpacked” order sets
14. IT/Operational Issues Impacted by MU
• Inpatient EHR/PM
• Ambulatory EHR/PM (if different from inpatient)
• Mobility platform
• Storage, data backup/archive
• Hospital’s progress to the cloud
• Privacy & Security
• Clinical workflows
• Hospital/physician alignment
15. Wrapping up
• Meaningful Use is a strategic, long-term program for hospitals
• It impacts both legacy systems as well as newly adopted
technology
• Meaningful Use is primarily a human challenge, solid clinical
workflows are imperative for success
• Can’t attack MU as IT vs. Operations – the two must work together
and coexist
