Increasing patient engagement and medical transparency
n There are currently many strategies to increase patient engagement in promoting health and managing illness
n Increasing transparency: at many institutions, patients can view lab results, medication lists, and other parts of their records online
n Though patients legally own their medical records,
doctors typically do not share visit notes with them
BIDMC portal
OpenNotes
Enable patients to view their primary care doctors’ signed visit notes via secure electronic portals, and also remind them to review them before the next visit
For doctors, would OpenNotes…
…prove to be an additional burden? …make them spend more time worrying about and
editing notes? …lead them to change the content of what they
write/dictate in their notes?
Would patients…
… read their notes? … share them with others (and if so, how)? … find the notes helpful or confusing? … and, ultimately, deal more effectively with health and illness?
Could the medical record handle one more audience?
OpenNotes demonstration project
• 12-month demonstration project Summer 2010 – Summer 2011 (and still ongoing)
• Patients invited to view their PCPs’ signed notes via
secure electronic portals (not retroactive)
• Each patient notified automatically via the electronic portal when note was signed, and reminded to review it before next scheduled visit.
OpenNotes demonstration project 110 Volunteer PCPs and almost 20,000 of their patients who use portals participated for 12 months
n Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Massachusetts (BIDMC) n 39 PCPs (33 HCA, 6 APG) n 10,800 patients
n Geisinger Health System, Pennsylvania (GHS)
n 26 PCPs n 8,800 patients
n Harborview Medical Center, Seattle (HMC)
n 45 PCPs n 270 patients

I don’t like the idea, but I can see that this is the wave of the future so I’ll give it a try. I’m afraid it will take a lot of time.
I think patients will believe something I write in the chart more completely than when it’s verbally communicated - I think it’s more real to them.
Patients should not have access to their notes. The note already serves far too many purposes such as billing, research, etc, and adding one more is not a good idea. They are not intended as a vehicle for patient communication.
It’s the right thing to do. My patients who look up information on-line tend to be the worriers, and I think reading their notes would generate more questions and worry.

Some patient comments have wide-ranging implications
“I know this is important, but I’m not going to raise it with my doctor,
since she’ll write it down.” “Doc, my mom’s worried sick over what she’s reading. Could you
please turn off her access to your notes?” “Doctor, you wrote you examined my breasts, but you didn’t.” “I read your notes posted. Most of it is fine. We did not have a
conversation about depression and I would like this remark removed. Also, I do not want mention in the note about my boyfriend. This is private information.”
“I’m so afraid that doctors are going to say, 'My God, I never had
enough time. Now, look what [OpenNotes] is doing to me...’”
A new medicine
n It aims to make people better, has side effects, and may hurt some patients
n Doctors and patients will need to learn how to use it effectively
n Portals are expensive now, but the price should come down
n It may even become standard of care (with room for exceptions)
Where may OpenNotes take us?
n Patients and doctors share in writing notes … as a contract?
n Opening notes of other clinicians
n A new type of peer review
n Patients and families contributing to safety
n A tool for caregivers
n Facebook?
What do you think?
Let’s talk…

“It seems reasonable, therefore, to look for substitutes that will serve at least some of the purposes of medical interviewing in widespread and inexpensive ways.”

“of all the burdens clinicians must bear— seeing more patients in less time,
keeping up with the literature, restructuring for accountable care organizations and meaningful use—
the last thing I’d give them is a task computers can do easily,
accurately, and reliably.”

It’s a particular type of perversion
to keep someone in the dark
then insult their lack of knowledge

Benefits from Fully Shared EHR
Factor Impact “Second set of eyes” viewing record Monitor test results; error-checking
record Improved communication: provider à patient
Better patient understanding and retention; greater adherence
Improved communication: patient à provider
More complete knowledge of patient history and concern; fewer tests ordered; improved diagnostic accuracy; reduced malpractice suits
Patient research May find legitimate information that may have been missed (including information from other patients)
Patient participation in note creation More accurate notes Shared care plan Greater adherence (patients and
providers); fewer errors/near-misses Sharing of information Lowered barrier to pt engagement

Challenges of Fully Shared EHR
Factor Mitigation Language and abbreviations Provide explanatory websites or
more explanation (staff time); write clearer with fewer abbreviations
Offensive terminology or phrases Use as teachable moment; avoid derogatory terms
Confusing patients Provide explanatory websites; or tools; annotate results; embargo results for short period of time
Upsetting patients
Warnings to not view if “you can’t handle the truth”; easy connection to care team
Patients noticing errors or disagreements with record
Education; amendment process

Conclusions
§ The shared EHR, used wisely and well, can transform care – In the office – Beyond the office § Sharing info lowers barriers to patient engagement § Sharing info has benefits but also challenges
