项目摘要

The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has acknowledged its commitment to promoting widespread Meaningful Use (MU) of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) through over $30 billion investment of funds from the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act of 2009, through the CMS Promoting Interoperability (MPI) program. Underlying this effort is the potential gain of improved health outcomes through the timely transfer of electronic health information across the care continuum. The Florida Medicaid Promoting Interoperability (FMPI) program started in 2011 through 2021, but less than half of Medicaid providers attested to MU (i.e., advanced EHR functions) of EHRs as of 2018, potentially creating an advanced use “digital divide” in the State. Medicaid/CHIP serves over 83.6 million beneficiaries in the United States, many of whom are traditionally low-income, vulnerable individuals with multiple comorbidities. It is thus critical to assess whether Federal funding designed to promote MU adoption is effective rather than inadvertently exacerbate health information technology disparities. The overall objective of this proposal is to data from the FMPI to estimate local-area MU rates of EHRs and assess whether MU of EHRs is lagging in areas with a high concentration of traditionally underserved populations. More specifically, the aims of this proposal are: Aim 1: Estimate MU rates of EHRs in areas with high concentration of low-income residents; assess whether MU rates are lagging in these areas; and examine the factors associated with MU rates in these areas. Aim 2: Estimate MU rates of EHRs in areas with high concentration of racial and ethnic minority residents; assess whether MU rates are lagging in these areas; and examine the factors associated with MU rates in these areas. Aim 3: Estimate MU rates of EHRs in rural areas and inner cities; assess whether MU rates are lagging in these areas; and examine the factors associated with MU rates in these areas. We will conduct a retrospective cohort study using records of 8748 medical practices from the FMPI’s Provider Participation Database. Using the participant’s 10-digit national provider identification (NPI) and county identifier, this database will be linked to other datasets from state and federal data sources. Innovative theoretical framework (Resource Dependence Theory) and estimation techniques (power analysis, logistic and probit random effects models, clustered standard errors, unobserved heterogeneity “debiasing method”, Heckman selection, and Hierarchical Generalized Linear Model (HGLM)) will be used. As an Academic Research Enhancement Award (AREA), we will involve graduate and undergraduate students in all aspects of the study as integral members of the research team, providing intensive exposure to and training in research. We will disseminate our research through digital, print, and presentation forums, and FAU open-access digital resource repositories, local community venues, and peer-reviewed journals.

医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心（CMS）承认其致力于促进通过超过300亿美元的投资， 2009年《经济和临床健康卫生信息技术法案》（HITECH）的资金，通过CMS促进互操作性（MPI）计划。这一努力的基础是潜在的收益，通过在整个护理过程中及时传输电子健康信息，改善健康结果连续体佛罗里达医疗补助促进互操作性（FMPI）计划始于2011年至2021年，但不到一半的医疗补助提供者证明了MU（即，高级EHR功能），这可能会在美国造成先进的“数字鸿沟”。医疗补助/芯片服务超过8360万受益人在美国，其中许多人是传统的低收入，弱势群体，多种合并症。因此，评估旨在促进MU采用的联邦资金是否是有效的，而不是无意中加剧卫生信息技术的差距。本提案的总体目标是利用FMPI的数据估计EHR的局部区域MU率，评估在传统上服务不足的人口高度集中的地区，人口。更具体地说，这项建议的目的是：目标1：估计低收入居民高度集中地区的EHR的MU率;评估MU是否率落后于这些领域;并研究与这些领域的MU率相关的因素。目标2：估计少数民族和少数民族居民高度集中地区的电子健康记录MU率; 评估这些地区的MU率是否滞后;并检查与这些地区MU率相关的因素。目标3：估计农村地区和城市中心的电子健康记录的MU率;评估MU率是否落后于这些地区地区;并研究与这些地区的MU率相关的因素。我们将使用来自FMPI的8748例医疗实践记录进行回顾性队列研究。提供者参与数据库。使用参与者的10位数国家提供商标识（NPI），县标识符，该数据库将链接到来自州和联邦数据源的其他数据集。创新理论框架（资源依赖理论）和估计技术（功率分析，逻辑和概率单位随机效应模型，标准误差聚类，未观察到的异质性“去偏方法”， Heckman选择和分层广义线性模型（HGLM））。作为学术研究增强奖（区），我们将涉及研究生和本科生学生在研究的各个方面作为研究团队的组成成员，提供密集的接触，和研究培训。我们将通过数字，印刷和演示论坛传播我们的研究，和FAU开放获取的数字资源库，当地社区场地，和同行评审的期刊。
