1 ON THE ROAD TO MEANINGFUL USE OF ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS: EXAMINING IMPLEMENTATION IN FEDERALLY QUALIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS 2014 Academy Health Annual Research Meeting, San Diego, CA Panel: HIT Adoption after the Tipping Point: Successes and Challenges June 8, 2014 Jenna T. Sirkin, MA, PhD Candidate Donald Shepard, PhD Deborah Garnick, ScD Cindy Parks Thomas, PhD The Heller School, Brandeis University
2 Overview Research hquestions Background Methods National Data Sets Study Sample Meaningful Use Indices Case Study Component Quantitative Results Conclusions Policy Implications
3 Research Questions I. What are the organizational and contextual factors associated with Meaningful Use (MU) progress among a national sample of federally qualified community health centers (CHCs)? II. How are CHC providers and staff using electronic health records (EHRs) to facilitate health h information i exchange, chronic disease management, and quality measurement? 3
4 Meaningful Use?
5 Meaningful Use Medicaid Incentive Program Eligibility and Incentives Every state runs own program; Program runs from Eligible Professionals Practice Predominantly in FQHC Timeline for Medicaid Year 1 of participation, providers can receive incentive payment for Adopting, p Implementing, OR Upgrading a certified EHR Maximum incentive: $63,750 (across 6 Remaining 5 years: Demonstrate MU years of program participation); No penalties for Medicaid Program
6 Study Setting: Federally Qualified Community Health Centers Non-profit, community-based primary care providers To qualify for Section 330 grant funding from Bureau of Primary Health lthcare and enhanced Medicaid id reimbursement CHCs must meet the following criteria: Located in high-need area Governed by a community board Provide comprehensive primary care to all, regardless of ability to pay Provide high-quality, cost effective care and reduce health care disparities Source: National Association of Community Health Centers [NACHC]. United State's Health Center Fact Sheet, Bethesda, MD, 2014 Available at:
7 Study Setting: Federally Qualified Community Health Centers, ,198 CHCs operate over 8,912 service delivery sites; provided care to 21 million patients nationally CHC Patient t Characteristics ti 72% at or below 100% FPL (20% U.S. Population) 93% at or below 200% FPL (40%US U.S. Population) 36% Uninsured (15% U.S. Population) 40% Medicaid (16% U.S. Population) Three times more likely than the general population to seek care for chronic conditions CHC patients more likely to experience referral difficulties Source: National Association of Community Health Centers [NACHC]. United State's Health Center Fact Sheet, Bethesda, MD, 2014 Available at: Bureau of Primary Health Care, HRSA, DHHS, 2012 Uniform Data System (UDS).
8 EHR Diffusion & Practice Integration Barriers in CHCs Diffusion in safety net historically slow due to limited resources and more complex patient needs. Resources Constraints High start-up costs (direct); high on-going costs Need training/ support for implementation & practice integration Provider attitudes; need to train clinical champions Misaligned costs and benefits (lack of incentives) Interface and interoperability constraints CHC regulatory and reporting requirements Lack of EHR system flexibility for highly-complex patient needs Shields AE, Shin P, Leu MG, et al.

14 Summary of Quantitative Findings CHCs participating in local or regional clinical data warehouse projects were more likely (p<.001) to have met a higher proportion of MU objectives CHCs Serving a higher percentage of patients below 100% of the FPL and patients best served in a foreign language were behind (p<.05) in achieving MU Greater total revenue was positively associated (p<.05) with MU progress
15 Study Limitations Cross-sectional sectional nature limits causal inference Mixed methods approach Rigorous site selection approach (dimensions from quantitative) Survey data self reported Measure limitations Innovative MU Indices Leadership team and provider perspective on MU Understand barriers and what works well

17 Conclusions What Facilitates Meaningful EHR Use? Clinical Data Warehouse (economy of scale) Local EHR Support Networks (REC, Primary Care Associations, Hospital) CHC revenue and slack resources CHC leadership involvement Vision, planning & implementation strategy Clinical training, buy-in, &longterm long-term support e.g., clinical health IT champion, CIO, hospital network Barriers and Challenges Economic/ social disadvantage CHC patients Inadequate planning and resources, including provider and staff time Increasing complexity of reporting and organizational demands Technical and logistic interoperability challenges data sharing, referrals, labs, imaging EHR adaption and integration with behavioral health records
18 Policy Implications Evolving role of Clinical Data Warehouse Networks that address safety-net needs Behavioral health: Funding, record integration, provider buy-in, updated EHRs Interoperability: Gov t &/ pvt. sector incentives Standardize and streamline reporting demands Sustainability considerations and economies of scale
