Well said! Patients could be totally "unengaged" and yet have providers very focused on them to deliver care. It's not surprising that with regulations of EHRs (which are used by providers) that MU objectives have been about incenting and measuring provider behavior and systems to engage patients more. That's all good. But as you pointed out (which I really want to think about) what are MY quality measures, workflow, process, and guidelines? Who will define them, and what systems will enable them?Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251393010554964308noreply@blogger.com
