    Chapter 11 AC Group’s 2007 Annual Report The Digital Medical Office of the Future Performance A. Methodology The majority of previous EMR evaluations have been limited to self-reported functionality. Although high rankings in this arena often indicate a superior product, the reviewers are aware that in some cases this correlation does not always hold. There may be some highly ranked products offering the full range of functionality that from the end user’s point of view may have features, organization or display that are limiting. The converse may also occur where a product that achieves a lower ranking because it offers less that full functionality nonetheless offers highly innovative features that would be advantageous for all end users. In short, although scores from self-reported functionality are extremely useful, they do not capture rich qualitative information that could significantly influence the practitioner’s decision of which system to choose. The purpose of this document is to help a physician evaluate a vendor’s solution. The document is divided into separate product demonstrations. If the practice is interested in one fully integrated system, then have the vendor complete and interact with this entire document. If the practice is only interested in a Document Image Management solution, complete sections B and D. If the practice is only interested in a comprehensive EMR/EHR application, then complete sections B and E. Speed is essential Time the execution of the tasks and record how long they take. You may be surprised at the significant difference in the results. Speed is extremely important during physician documentation.

  • Lessons from The
    Ideas from the NHS Dr. Francis Wong, MBBS, MBA, MPH www.franciswong.com September 2018 Purpose Background: The NHS (National Health System) is the largest single-payer system in the world and was ranked #1 in the Commonwealth Fund’s Health Care System Performance Rankings in 20171 (US placed #11). It achieved particularly high scores in Care Process (prevention, safe care, coordination & patient engagement), Access (timeliness & affordability) and Equity. The NHS is also one of the world’s largest employers with around 1.5m staff nationwide. In 2014, the UK spent 9.8% of GDP on healthcare2. Of course, it is not without shortcomings, but I am immensely proud of the NHS and stand behind its founding principles. As a physician who has worked in both UK and US, I believe there is much that the countries can learn from each other. My goals for this document are: • Outline several examples of successful, promising and even controversial innovations in the UK’s National Health Service with an emphasis on primary care. • Briefly describe their impact on care delivery in the UK. • Hypothesize how these innovations might be applied to a US employer-based model. 1 Commonwealth Fund: Mirror, Mirror 2017 2 NHS spends about EU average as percentage of GDP on health Primary Care as Gatekeeper Overview Impact Relevance In England, there are approximately 340M GP Primary care as a gatekeeper to specialists is The gatekeeping role of primary care in the UK consultations a year with an average of 6 visits not a novel concept in the US and is a defining originated over 100 years ago, prior to the per year.

Conclusions on the digital health UK competitive position 45 Monitor Deloitte team 51 References 52 Foreword Welcome to the Monitor Deloitte report on Digital Health. This is one of a series of reports reflecting work commissioned by Office of Life Sciences in March 2015 on key healthcare and life science industry segments in the United Kingdom. Digital Health is an emerging industry arising from the intersection of healthcare services, information technology and mobile technology. Digital health innovations are only just starting to be more widely accepted as necessary for the future of efficient healthcare service delivery. As we address the behaviour, social, legal and technical challenges, over time, digital health advances have the potential to help increase access, decrease healthcare system costs and improve health outcomes. This report analyses trends in the digital health industry based on discussions with stakeholders, literature reviews and our work across the sector. It focuses on the United Kingdom but in the context of the global market and draws on examples from other countries. The report considers the challenges to growth, barriers to adoption, shifting dynamics and how the emergent industry is developing. The intention is to provoke discussion and offer readers an overview of the industry challenges and dynamics in the United Kingdom. We welcome your feedback and comments.
