A Proposal to Leverage Electronic Personal Health Records to Provide Direct Access to Health Services Thereby Empowering Patients and Triggering Disruptive Transformation of the Canadian Health Care System Dr. Glen Geiger Presentation to e-Health 2013 May 29th, 2013 Conflict of Interest Disclosure Glen Geiger, BASc, MDCM, FRCPC, MASc, MBA Has no real or apparent conflicts of interest to report. © 2013 HIMSS Agenda • • • • Cost and Quality of Healthcare Access to Healthcare The Role of the Personal Health Record The Patient as Partner in Care Cost and Quality of Healthcare How does healthcare control costs? How does healthcare deliver quality? Courtesy: Commonwealth Fund Report, “Mirror Mirror on the Wall, 2010 Update Access to Healthcare Over Four Million Canadians Don’t Have A Family Doctor† “Simply having a family doctor though is not enough…most people in Ontario are unable to get an appointment to see their doctor the same day or the next day when they become sick. Rick Glazier, a primary care doctor and researcher at the University of Toronto says that “it really undercuts the value of having primary care providers if you cannot see them when you need them…these individuals then end up visiting walk-in clinics, urgent care centres or emergency departments. In fact, it is estimated that about a quarter of Ontarians with a family doctor have been to a walk in clinic in the past year.”* †Statistics Canada. (2010). Canada Community Health Survey. Ottawa. *Born and Laupacis, “Accessing Primary Care in Ontario”, Healthy Debate, Sept 28th, 2011 Its Not Just A Numbers Problem “There are promising ways of improving access to much needed primary care….the Health Council of Canada has advocated for Primary Healthcare Teams in caring for people with chronic disease such as asthma, heart disease or diabetes and mental health conditions, including depression.” While the jury is still out on which model is best, the underlying message is clear: improving care (and access to it) is more about how care is delivered, than how much. And we shouldn’t forget that for the majority of problems for which Canadians visit family physicians, nurse practitioners provide care of equal (and sometimes better) quality.”* *Canadian Health Services Research Foundation, “Myth: Canada Needs More Doctors”, May 2012 The Personal Health Record A Simple Approach to Personal Health Records: The Patient as Scribe Personal Health Records were originally conceived as a tool for patients to input their health history in order to foster sharing with the many physicians that see them Health Information – – – – – – – – – PHR allergies chronic diseases family history illnesses and hospitalizations imaging reports (e.g. X-ray) laboratory test results medications and dosing Surgeries vaccinations Control Sharing So you expect me to type my health information into a web page so I can share it with you? A More Sophisticated Approach: The Patient as Participant PHR EMR Results Results Appointment Changes Appointments / Reminders Prescription Renewals Prescription Renewals Texting / e-Mail Texting / e-Mail MyChart: One Toronto Hospital’s E-health Triumph* “MyChart is the wave of the future. When patients have electronic access to their medical records they can take greater control of their own health care.” “Sunnybrook is a pioneer in the field – with the focus placed on the patients themselves. Indeed, a decade ago, most health-care providers were primarily interested in developing electronic systems that would permit the easy transfer of patient records between hospital departments or to other medical institutions.” *PAUL TAYLOR, The Globe and Mail Published Thursday, Sep. 20 2012, 5:20 PM EDT When Will PHR Platforms Gain Consumer Acceptance?* "Consumer adoption of PHRs and the reasons for not using them have not changed significantly over the past five years. Greater strides in patient engagement will be required if interoperable, personal medical device–connected PHRs are to play an important supporting role for accountable care and patientcentered medical homes." *IDC Health Insights - 2011 Making the Patient a Partner in ‘Sickness and in Health’ by Leveraging Integrated Personal Health Records The Power – Illness Relationship Provider Power MVA / Trauma Patient Diabetes Wellness Illness Heart Failure Customer Laser eye surgery Recipient Power The Patient as Partner PHR Regional EMR Results Results Appointment Changes Appointments / Reminders Prescription Renewals Prescription Renewals Texting / e-Mail Texting / e-Mail Health Reminders Health Reminders Service Requests Service Requests Implement wellness programs through the PHR (eg.
