Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Patient generated health data (PGHD) has been described as a necessary addition to provider-generated information for improving care processes in US hospitals. This study evaluated the distribution of Health Information Interested (HII) US hospitals that are more likely to capture or use PGHD. The literature suggests that HII hospitals are more likely to capture and use PGHD. Cross-sectional analysis of the 2018 American Hospital Association's (AHA) health-IT-supplement and other supporting datasets showed that HII hospitals collectively and majority of HII hospital subcategories evaluated were associated with increased PGHD capture and use. The full Learning Health System (LHS) hospital subcategory had the highest association and hospitals in the meaningful use stage three compliant (MU3) and PCORI funded subcategory also had higher rates of PGHD capture or use when in combination with LHS hospitals. Hence, being LHS appears to be the strongest practice and policy lever to increase PGHD capture and use.
