Integrating Patient-Generated Health Data Into Electronic Health Records AHRQ's new guide on increasing the use of patient-generated health data (PGHD) into electronic health records is the subject of a new AHRQ Views blog post. The potential for PGHD to impact healthcare delivery is significant, according to authors Chun-Ju (Janey) Hsiao, a Health Scientist Administrator in AHRQ's Division of Digital Healthcare Research, and Chris Dymek, Director of the Agency's Digital Healthcare Research Program. Ambulatory care clinicians have traditionally based treatment recommendations on information received from patients during clinical encounters. But the additional information provided by PGHD gives patients and clinicians the ability to employ better strategies to prevent and manage health conditions. Registration is open for a Feb. 22 web conference that will highlight the guide and feature recommendations on integrating PGHD into ambulatory care. |
