Type:
Peer-Reviewed Literature
This research article on a pilot study explores potential effectiveness of OurNotes, a secure portal through which clinicians and patients can co-produce medical notes, in an effort to further engage patients through collaboration and patient-centered care. Does this intervention increase physician workload or impose unaccustomed accountabilities on patients? Through detailed phone interviews with clinicians and patient advocates, the researchers found that the intervention model may improve health care value and warrants further study.
