Capabilities and Characteristics of Digital Measurement Feedback Systems: Results from a Comprehensive Review

摘要

Measurement Feedback Systems (MFS) are a class of Health Information Technology (HIT) that function as an implementation support strategy for integrating measurement based care or routine outcome monitoring into clinical practice. Although many MFS have been developed, little is known about their functions. This paper reports findings from an application of Health Information Technology- Academic and Commercial Evaluation (HIT-ACE), a systematic and consolidated evaluation method, to MFS designed for use in behavioral healthcare settings. Forty-nine MFS were identified and subjected to systematic characteristic and capability coding. Results are presented with respect to the representation of characteristics and capabilities across MFS.
