Slide Presentation from the AHRQ 2007 Annual Conference

Using Technology to Improve Systems of Care

1. Proactive planning for population care:

• Queries and follow-up with sub-populations
• *Next Gen population based queries for Indian Clinic indicators require a SQL programmer or the funds to have a custom report written!
• Our software has a long way to go to improve queries
• We provided technical assistance to the clinics to query the software for reports required by Indian Health Service.
• IHS tribal clinics are not exactly the same as community clinics and vendor reports provided to community clinics do not meet our requirements.
