Alternate Title: Slime Mold Maps and Taco Seasoning
In this excellent episode, Kelly and Lalita dive back into the discussion on Health IT legislation, this time starting with HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act) and moving through the 21st Century Cures Act. We discuss the role of Health IT regulation in developing the current landscape, and where we hope things go as we build out some of the aspirational goals of the Cures Act. Also, how do we swing the pendulum back towards the small practice? -

In this episode, Kelly and Lalita focus on the backbone of VBC: Metrics! As data nerds and yet, somehow luddites, they discuss current news (CrowdStrike debacles), HEDIS measures, and putting patients at the center of everything. They also pose a question to the listener: what should we actually be measuring (and how) to get a good sense of health and successful outcomes?
-
"Value" based care is all the rage, but as two family docs interested in data and measurability, we're not so sure. VBC will likely increase the need for informaticists and good data queries, but are proxies dictated by payers really able to capture the value of primary care? Or is qualitative research a better way to measure the immeasurable?
-
In this episode Kelly and Lalita discuss what makes a "good" patient portal experience? What elements are necessary? Focusing mostly on scheduling and messaging, Kelly and Lalita share stories highlighting the physical and technological constraints to practicing medicine and how standardization might mean losing the individual experience in order to achieve more individualized care.
-
In this episode, Kelly and Lalita discuss how the EHR creates additional constraints on physical space design in the clinical setting and talk about various ways to use data and information while in the exam room.
