Interoperability Scenarios Care Theme: Chronic Care Act 5 - Hypertension Care with e-prescribing (eRx) and personal health record (PHR) Update Scenario Primary Goal: To demonstrate the ability for providers to proactively and efficiently manage a patient’s well being through the use of home care devices and electronic medication prescribing. Key Points:
The demonstration will use HITSP constructs to demonstrate interoperability between remote monitoring devices and provider
offices, e-prescription and e-dispensing, and EMR PHR integration
This scenario features a remote monitoring device providing patient updates to their PCP. The PCP uses the EMR to prescribe
medications for the patient to pick up at pharmacy, as well as document within the patient’s PHR
Remote monitoring observed an abnormal result from patient; PCP is notified of the abnormal result and prescribes a medication for
patient to use and document within patient’s PHR
Meaningful Use Relevance MU Objective 3: Engaging Patients & Families in Their Healthcare Clinical Workflow:
J.M. is a 65 year old male with history of Type II Diabetes Mellitus and essential hypertension. He is enthusiastic about a new program that allows him to send finger stick blood sugar results and blood pressure measurements to his primary care physician (PCP) by using a remote monitoring set-up at home. He is concerned that his fasting blood sugar measurements have gradually increased over the last two weeks. His usual blood sugar results were in the 120-150 mg/dl range but recent measurements are all above 200 mg/dl. His blood pressure is higher than usual at 180/100 mmHg. He sends these results to his physician and also reports that he is almost out of his usual insulin supply.
Dr. Harris receives J.M.’s remote monitoring results. He knows J.M. well, having been his physician for the last 10 years. Dr. Harris decides to increase J.M.’s insulin dose to 15 units twice a day. Dr Harris also decides to change the Furosemide (Lasix) dose from 40mg to 80mg by mouth daily. Dr. Harris calls J.M. to discuss the plans to change the medication doses and lets J.M. know that he will be sending the prescriptions electronically to J.M.’s preferred pharmacy.
A week later J.M. goes to Dr. Harris’ office for medical follow-up. His vital signs are recorded as part of the examination. His blood pressure is better controlled at 150/85mmHg. A finger stick blood sugar result is 110 mg/dl. J.M. asks Dr. Harris to send an electronic summary of this office visit to his PHR which he uses to help manage his chronic diseases.
