Role of HIT“To utilize a fully-functioning EHR as a tool to improve the
quality and safety of health care delivered at the individual patient level and population level”
2004-2007 EQUIP Project (AHRQ-funded)• Enhanced availability of Information• Decision support (active and passive)• Performance measurement • Reporting (individual and population)• Support of clinical translational science, research

Components of Research Infrastructure
Technical infrastructure to include:• Enhanced data extraction, analytic capability
to capture research data from central HER•
• Videoconferencing capability to: 1) link sites for research project communications; 2) potentially be used for patient recruitment; and 3) remotely deliver interventions
• Mobile device technology for data collection and unique interventions at patient level.

Components of Research Infrastructure
Administrative infrastructure would include:
• Research advisory board - foundation for involving academic researchers, community clinicians in planning/carrying out research
• Data use policy, procedure, and agreement• Templates for patient recruitment, consent • Centralized IRB • Informatics staff
