Provider Access to Patient Information Survey - 2017 Report
eHealth Initiative’s 2017 Provider Survey on Access to Patient Information examines perspectives on:
• Increased access to patient information
• Interoperability
• Changing regulations, including compliance with Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Meaningful Use (MU)
• Latest findings on provider-related interoperability solutions, which drive outcomes and organizational priorities
After careful analysis of the survey results, the following key findings emerged:
- Key Finding 1: Patient engagement appears to be increasing, with more patients accessing their health information and managing how it is shared
- Key Finding 2: Providers are struggling to meet patient access regulations, which do not necessarily align with business needs
- Key Finding 3: Changing federal requirements, and the costs associated with them, are causing great concern among providers
- Key Finding 4: Current interoperability solutions do not meet the needs of providers
- Key Finding 5: Patient security, privacy and confidentiality remain top concerns amongst providers
- Key Finding 6: Professional societies and industry groups play a key role in educating providers on new regulations
- Key Finding 7: EHR vendors are viewed as “helpful” in addressing current patient access regulatory requirements
- Key Finding 8: Providers are engaged in a variety of alliances and participate in different interoperability frameworks
- Key Finding 9: Providers prioritize connectivity in a variety of ways
