The marginal value of pre-visit paper reminders when added to a multifaceted electronic health record based quality improvement system

摘要

ObjectiveWe have reported that implementation of an electronic health record (EHR) based quality improvement system that included point-of-care electronic reminders accelerated improvement in performance for multiple measures of chronic disease care and preventive care during a 1-year period. This study examined whether providing pre-visit paper quality reminders could further improve performance, especially for physicians whose performance had not improved much during the first year.
