Programmatic Theme: Clinical Informatics

This project aimed to develop a scalable ePRO framework using existing EHR functionality and validated tools to enhance supportive care in ambulatory oncology. Guided by user design principles, we conducted a developmental formative evaluation, including 46 qualitative interviews with target users (clinicians and patients). The resulting framework, which features automated assessments via patient portals linked to clinician-facing decision support with dynamic referrals, demonstrates a user-informed, sustainable solution without significant infrastructure investment.
