AHRQ-Funded Projects
Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness Patient-Reported Outcome (RISE PRO) Dissemination Project
This project will create and evaluate a learning network to expand the use of the Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness (RISE) registry for patient-reported outcomes on rheumatoid arthritis.
Health IT-Generated PROs to Improve Outcomes in Cirrhosis
This project will test the effectiveness of using patient-reported outcomes for cirrhosis collected with Patient Buddy and EncephalApp on hospital readmissions.
Patient Choice of Telemedicine Encounters
This project will examine the quality and safety impact of patient-initiated telemedicine visits with primary care providers.
Improving Allergy Documentation and Clinical Decision Support in the Electronic Health Record
This project will redesign approaches for collecting and using allergy information with the goal of improving healthcare quality and safety, including completeness and accuracy of allergy data.
Meaningful Drug Interaction Alerts
This project proposes a novel proactive system to reduce alert burden and thereby increase attention to situations in which patient safety is at risk.
Advancing the Collection and Use of Patient-Reported Outcomes through Health Information Technology
This research will support development and testing of technical tools for use within electronic health records or other systems to collect patient-reported outcomes for clinical use and research.
AHRQ Patient-Reported Outcome Challenge Competition Support
This contract provided the administration and management of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's “Step Up App Challenge: Advancing Care Through Patient Self-Assessments.”
Annual Conference on Health Information Technology & Analytics (CHITA)
The central goal of the annual Conference on Health IT & Analytics is to develop a health information technology and analytics (HIT+A) research agenda that supports national efforts to create a learning health system that produces evidence to make health care safer, of higher quality, more accessible, equitable, and affordable.
Incorporating PRO Data Into RA Clinical Encounters Using Health-IT (PACT)
This project will develop and evaluate an an electronic dashboard to display patient reported outcomes for patients with rheumatoid arthritis that will facilitate clinician and patient conversations about their care.
Providing Evidence and Developing a Toolkit to Accelerate the Adoption of Patient Photographs in Electronic Health Records
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of patient photographs displayed in electronic health record systems for preventing wrong-patient errors.
