Patient and Provider Technology Adoption Committee

The next Patient and Provider Technology Adoption Committee meeting is on Monday December 11, 2017 at 2:00 PM EST

eHealth Initiative is holding an in-person meeting in Washington, D.C. on February 7-8 to review and revise the 2020 Roadmap developed in 2014. In lieu of a November meeting, the workgroup has been asked to review the current map and provide any significant modifications they would suggest to be discussed during the February 2018 Roadmap Refresh.

About the Committee

The 2020 Roadmap identifies the need for “efforts to create a sustainable health IT ecosystem by tackling the systemic issues, within private sector control, that have been hindering adoption and meaningful utilization, while identifying priorities that can be recommended for federal partners to take action on.”

This group identifies emerging best practices which are demonstrating success in the field. The group engages patient-consumer experts, providers, payers and HIT leaders to seek out and report on excellence in the industry, including the motivators that are driving stakeholders.

By harmonizing interests, this group will ensure that patients, consumer tools, devices, and mobile apps are part of the considerations of best practices. The group convenes executives from multi-stakeholder groups to identify “success stories” in the private sector that transform care through use of health information technology in driving business and clinical motivators.

Group Charter

  • Discover a minimum of 20 new examples of success stories that will be added to our online resource center
  • Identify overarching trends and give recommendations on best practices as well as innovation models
  • Identify priorities that can be recommended for federal partners to take action
  • Develop a whitepaper that identifies, analyzes and communicates successful examples of innovative uses of technology- with emphasis on clinical and business improvements.

Selection Process for Membership and Staffing

Members are expected to contribute best practices, success stories and lessons learned. The group meets on a monthly basis virtually. One in person meeting is held annually at the eHI Annual Conference and Meeting. This group is open to all eHI members.
