But in the new outcome economy the product is now interdisciplinary, patient-centered <strong>teamwork<\/strong>. Highly mobile teams of prescribers, nurses, pharmacists, and care coordinators now work together to complete a series of high-stakes processes to improve the health, outcomes, and experience of care for more people at the lowest cost and in the shortest time possible. The ability of these teams to work as a unit can make the difference between a rapid recovery and a costly readmission or life-threatening complication.<\/p>\n<p>This silent shift from piecework to teamwork has, in turn, forced a disruptive shift in the value currency of health and care. Under fee for service, the value currency was <strong>information<\/strong>. Autonomous providers were the prevailing decision makers and what they needed most from technology was information at the point of care to help them diagnose, prescribe, and delegate tasks (i.e., write orders) to other health professionals. But the new value currency isn&#8217;t information as much as it is the ongoing <strong>conversations<\/strong> between team members, consumers, software agents, and other caregivers that enable them, together, to remove inefficiencies and create the best, most cost-efficient outcomes. And many of these conversations need to proactively involve and engage the consumer, because the consumer is the new center of the team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So why are these shifts threatening to disrupt the current HIT industry<\/strong>? These shifts radically change the purpose of technology from delivering information to autonomous providers at the point of care to empowering mobile, interdisciplinary teams to work together both virtually and physically as one team. The current generation of HIT solutions\u2014EHRs, PHRs, and HIEs-\u2014were never designed to support teams on the move. That\u2019s because they were built on database platforms best suited to capture, organize, move, and present information to experts at the point of care to speed the delivery of piecework and to document what was done.<\/p>\n<p>To truly empower virtual teams to work together across organizational boundaries and engage patients in their care, health, and management of their risks and conditions, technology has to do much more than connect these teams to just information<em>. <\/em>Technology now must also <strong>connect every team member to people, teams, insights, things, and complex processes<\/strong> both within and beyond their four walls\u2014and automate as many portions of those processes as possible. It also must help <strong>coordinate<\/strong> <strong>those processes<\/strong> in a way that improves the outcomes and experience of care at a lower cost. Of course, information is still important. But the leveraged power of technology now lies at the intersection of people and team processes rather than people and information. Information has been relegated to a feed into those team processes.<\/p>\n<p>Workflows that involve health professionals who are mobile require advanced, cloud-based, communication and collaboration platforms that can extend and work alongside the current generation of database-driven EHRs, PHRs, and HIEs. With the current database-driven HIT solutions, it\u2019s cumbersome and takes too much time for geographically dispersed care team members, consumers, and family and friend caregivers to find each other, converse, share insights and documents, and coordinate processes quickly.<\/p>\n<p>This upcoming blog series is dedicated to industry thought leaders that have recognized these disruptive shifts and are decisively extending their EHRs. They are taking advantage of next-generation, cloud-based platforms to reduce conversational friction and latency for care teams, transform their culture, and raise team performance and the experience of care to new heights.<\/p>\n<p>What your thoughts on these three shifts??
