Overview

Data monitoring, from the highest level down to the patient level is critical to identifying trends, gaining insights, and communicating transparently with staff and stakeholders. Data monitoring approaches such as dashboarding are used to display data in a simple and intuitive way, allowing a snapshot of performance on selected measures to see changes or areas for improvement. Business intelligence systems such as population health management analytics allows for the monitoring of the health of a whole patient population, stratified by various characteristics, thereby supporting care planning, resource allocation, and training opportunities. Resources in this section include tools to begin dashboarding, considerations for taking the next step with population health management and guidance on how to navigate the many factors of any data monitoring approach.

ONC & CDC Integration Framework

ONC & CDC Integration Framework

ONC & CDC Health IT tool

The Integration Framework, developed by Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), provides guidance to health care systems, states, and health information technology (IT) vendors to support successful project execution, management and communications for Health IT integrations. This Framework is based on the project’s learnings from Prescription Drug Monitoring Program-Electronic Health Record (PDMP-EHR) Integration and electronic Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Implementation. The intended audience for this Framework includes health care systems preparing to integrate their EHR with the state PDMP, as well as PDMP administrators interested in providing PDMP-EHR integrations to health care systems in their state. The learnings from this project may also be useful to organizations undertaking other Health IT integrations. This Framework is supplemented by the PDMP-EHR Integration Toolkit that provides detailed guidance and templates for specific phases of integration.
