Hi all. I'm Shereese here in Maryland #HITsm https://t.co/OiOoD9Nuyj
John Lynn @techguy
Hey everyone! Looking forward to the chat. I write for @hcittoday and organize @HITMarketingPR and @EXPOdotHealth I think I might have to say Alexa for most usable tech in my life. She brings me the most joy when I use her and it's often. #HITsm https://t.co/w1dg6grjxe
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#hitsm One of the most un-usable. Microwave ovens! One of these days I’m going to write a specification for a microwave oven interface that makes sense. -popcorn- button etc.
John Lynn @techguy
I'd say the most common one I see is putting all of the information on the screen. Screen overload is a big problem. #HITsm https://t.co/u9zV9vSWwp

@ShereesePubHlth What's up twin sister? #HITsm
MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
Hey there #HITSM friends, I'm taking this opportunity to launch my new and ADDITIONAL Twitter Profile as Senior Marketing Strategist for The @MiHIN Group! (PLEASE FOLLOW) I'm based in Grand Rapids, MI. The most usable piece of technology I own is undoubtably my iPhone!
Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba
The most useful tech I have is my cell phone. I seem to be managing most aspects of my life from it. #HITsm https://t.co/ezmlgpBEvO
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
T1: Virtually all applications are designed to have a very formal, if not repeated, training class in order to complete a task. So "online help" is a foreign concept. #hitsm
John Lynn @techguy
@uuAbility Hmm...this one doesn't bother me, but I'm a precise microwave person. I like to monitor so it doesn't go bad. Except popcorn which I have down to a science. #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
@techguy #Hitsm - Yes there are a lot of things being presented. The designers should work with the clinicians that use that screen to better organize it. etc.
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
@hcittoday @uuAbility Kate - Healthcare IT Consultant from NJ. The most usable technologies in my life are open table and amazon. I can't think of a healthcare technology that I use and find easy! #hitsm
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
With no connection to a role's workflow. #hitsm

MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
T1: The most common usability issue I run into pretty regularly is incompatability of UI.UX across platforms. It's shocking to me how many digital presentations are still not mobile enabled. #HITSM
Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
@hcittoday @uuAbility T1: One of the most common #usabiity issues I've encountered is with #EHR design. Many times, the UX is not intuitive, nor does it correspond to the needs of role based users. #HITsm
Susan Houck Clark @SusanHouckClark
@hcittoday @uuAbility I am a minute late, but I am Susan, slaying healthcare technology dragons from Lafayette, Indiana. Most usable technology is still texting right now. I love GIFs and emojis! #HITSM 🤪 https://t.co/z1AG3GzPsg
Innsena @InnsenaG2M
Would agree with @techguy about screen overload -- too many options and clutter w/ systems that aren't intuitive. Lack of support is another common gripe. -- MTB
John Lynn @techguy
Yep. I'm not even talking sophisticated real time access to the information based on the context of the patient. Like, can we at least get some role based stuff done. #HITsm
John Lynn @techguy
@BrianMihin @MiHIN Look at you. How many accounts is that for you now? #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#hitsm Understanding the mental models and workflow of the real people is an essential part of a human-centered design process
John Lynn @techguy
@CorbettKr @hcittoday @uuAbility This is a sad observation, but I can't argue with you. A few biometrics have gotten close for me. #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
It true. Recent studies have shown that a number of medical apps are used one or twice and then deleted div to poor usability #HitSM
MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
@techguy @MiHIN Well... That's 3 if you count @GLHC_HIE, which I'm still actively managing. There will likely be some additional movement over the coming months as we continue through the integration of our organizations. #HITSM
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
@uuAbility And its why single vender, all things to all roles, #EHR's will always be weak in this aspect. #hitsm
John Lynn @techguy
@SusanHouckClark @hcittoday @uuAbility Nice. What's the latest healthcare tech dragon you've slayed? #HITsm

Susan Houck Clark @SusanHouckClark
@hcittoday @uuAbility T1: Logging in to multiple places to get information is still a major issue, both for caregivers and patients. #HITSM
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
- Views not optimized for mobile - Limited one-click actions - Lack of prefilled or prepopulated fields even though the data is in the system @uuAbility #HITsm

@Rich_Metzger I'd probably say designed for billing and regulatory instead of data. Similar point, but different motivation. #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#HitSM How about required fields not indicated?
Healthcare IT Today @hcittoday
T2: Have you reported a usability bug to your EHR vendor, if so, what happened? If not, why not? @uuAbility #HITsm https://t.co/xreQFisJpQ
John Lynn @techguy
@SusanHouckClark @hcittoday @uuAbility I thought 2nd screen was all the rage. #HITsm
Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba
@Rich_Metzger Training, IMHO is the missing link. There's no ongoing commitment to training. #hitsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
@techguy @Rich_Metzger #Hitsm “Its just a billing platform with some patient stuff tacked on” @ZDoggMD

Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
Wait. Did you change your Twitter account, @BFMack ? #HITsm
John Lynn @techguy
@uuAbility This is embarrassing. Hard to believe it happens, but I'm sure it does. #HITsm
John Lynn @techguy
When I was working the day job I reported hundreds. I reported so many that we basically had an open line of communication of what was needed and what they'd been able to do. I thought that was essential to our success. #HITsm https://t.co/YP7bwRDQQ5
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#Hitsm Training is required when the system design doesn’t match the model and workflow of users. Training costs go WAY down for companies that use #Human-centeredDesign
Susan Houck Clark @SusanHouckClark
@techguy @hcittoday @uuAbility The dragon that guards the moat between Medicaid IT needs and the broader healthcare community IT needs. He has been a beast keeping us from be able to strategically plan for both viewpoints collaboratively. #HITSM
Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
T2: The UX is often not customized for individuals, it is customized for mass production. There are other things that fall into the usability, like access to the right data in the right format, at the right time, with elss searching & manual input #hitsm
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
@techguy You have to be in the super secret real "beta" circle though. Otherwise you drown in roadmap slides. #hitsm
Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba
T2 No I have not but I rant about it on Twitter 😁#HITsm https://t.co/0wgVaBjNXL
John Lynn @techguy
@ShereesePubHlth @Rich_Metzger This reminds me of my piano analogy: https://t.co/F4ILtyVBp4 Rings true on usability and training. #HITsm
MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
T1: Many patient portals continue to struggle with UI/UX navigation and usability issues. In full transparency, my organization's website also fights this fight. Finding a way to intuitively surface a LOT of complex information for broad but specific audiences is HARD! #HITSM
John Lynn @techguy
lol #HITsm https://t.co/08ARFyo5WX
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
Yes! I don't understand how so many health systems still don't use SSO. It is a major satisfier. #EHRusability #hitsm
John Lynn @techguy
@Bossoft @BFMack He just multiplied. It's this new cloning technology they're working on in Michigan. Pretty cool stuff. #HITsm
John Lynn @techguy
Training is always required when it's a complex system. I agree that training costs can be less when it's well designed though. #HITsm https://t.co/x0PG8nTyld
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
@BrianMihin #Hitsm Yes! A cross-function team of designers with the #HCD on their minds can solve this!

@techguy Sooooo much wasted time for everyone. #hitsm https://t.co/VPKBWNR63P
Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
@uuAbility Agree @ShereesePubHlth - Training is a HUGE issue. In addition, user in put and customization is a huge issue and in most cases needs to be done to create a usable system. #HITsm
MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
T2: I have not personally ever reported a bug. But from an #HIE perspective, I can say with complete confidence that our Support and Integration teams spend a significant amout of time and energy on these issues. #HITSM

John Lynn @techguy
@jeremycoleman Yep. There are a number of ways to get a software vendors attention. One is be a big contract client. Another is to be someone that other potential and existing clients look to as a leader. Either one can help you get closer to that super secret real "beta" circle. #HITsm
John Lynn @techguy
@CorbettKr My wife was filling out a dental form this week and they were asking for the same info in 3 different areas of the same piece of paper. She asked me why it was the case. #IHadNoAnswer #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#Hitsm We try to encourage people report a #usability bug and also site which of Nielsen 10 heuristics it violates. Can get more traction towards getting it fixed!
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
What you perceive as a "bug" may in fact be a major part of the design of the EHR or other application. Also, I do not need to wonder how a ticket for usability likely gets prioritized compared to something regulatory or financial @uuAbility #hitsm

@hcittoday @uuAbility T3: It begins in development. We need more buy-in from the development teams and greater knowledge of clinical workflows, integrations and easier role-based customization. Right now, everything is a one-off. #HITsm
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
T3: Having "fresh" eyes is key. Have your pharm specialists take a look at lab modules, for example. As a tech person, I had a very different perspective when I trained on clinical apps. Complexity is generally the enemy. #hitsm

@BrianMihin @BFMack HA! Yes my friend. #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#HITSM I’ve seen this happen again and again;
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
There is no more important question then "why did you make that choice?" #hitsm
John Lynn @techguy
@Rich_Metzger Got burned on this one before. Was on the bleeding edge of the release because of a feature we wanted. Turns out we got burned by something that wasn't fully tested and was causing memory leaks. I then decided to be early, but not first :-) #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#Hitsm This:
Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
Agree! Complexity is a huge issue, and the primary one that we are called in. #HITsm .
John Lynn @techguy
@CorbettKr @uuAbility One person's bug is another person's favorite feature? #HITsm
John Lynn @techguy
I think we see a few groups. EHR vendors that get it and are trying to make an effort. And those that don't. #HITsm https://t.co/elofU6b7E8
John Lynn @techguy
@uuAbility Right. The fact it was paper was a problem as well. Plus, the info will likely never be looked at again. #HITsm
MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
@uuAbility Bennet, can you say more about Nielsen Heuristics? Thx! #HITSM
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
Money talks. Ease of use should be a scored portion of a vendor proposal or at least among vendor selection criteria. #hitsm @uuAbility
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#Hitsm But let’s not bombard the user with surveys!
Susan Houck Clark @SusanHouckClark
@CorbettKr @uuAbility Related, after identifying opportunity for my provider to further enhance MyChart, I reached out to a friend in that system's IT to ask how to request. Answer - "I've never had a patient ask for an enhancement before!" She was excited to take it forward for me. #HITsm
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#Hitsm The @EHRAssociation Has a set of personas and should have the new user journeys for #healthIT up soon. A great resource
burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen
T3: Have to remember that all of us in health care are human beings who have to interact as a patient, caregiver, etc. If you don't like how it sounds, or what it does why would anyone else? #HC thinks "consumers" are an exotic tribe somewhere, we're all consumers of HC! #HITSM
John Lynn @techguy
Cool. Good to know. #HITsm
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
@uuAbility SLAs? Most contracts have some expectations for issue resolution and turn around time for any other issue type. At a minimum reporting from the vendor on the number of usability issues reported and resolved would be a start. #hitsm

When I talk to EHR vendors about their APIs I ask them if they're willing to make the APIs so powerful that someone could create their entire interface in a new design if wanted. Would be interesting if an EHR did. #HITsm https://t.co/MG6GlnMffY

#HITSM I have so many app ideas ready to go!
John Lynn @techguy
@uuAbility It would be fascinating to see what enterprising people would create if an EHR was brave enough to do this. They'd still be the repository of info, but could get out of the UI business for many things. #HITsm
Kate Corbett, CPHIMS, PMP, CSM @CorbettKr
We have seen the difficulty using regulation to mandate APIs and interoperability. Imagine trying to require usability. #hitsm

steven knurr 🏴 @scknurr
Here's the hill I'll die on @farhanahmad & @CraigJoseph: Epic shoulda "done deals" with Google, FB, and Apple to build their ecosystem competency. Because Epic really should be *that* fundamental in our daily app diet; with a "healthcare organization-independent" UX all its own.

Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
@BrianMihin I think they've included questions about patient portals / accessibility of data in the past. The problem with the question on usability in the HCAHPS Survey is many times the focus is on getting well, not on actually using the technology.... #HITsm

@jeremycoleman @techguy We've been getting a LOT of traction with enhanced SSI technology for our solutions. I think that the growth of APIs should assist with making more data discreetly available. #HITSM

@techguy @ShereesePubHlth @Imprivata SSO is fast becoming a requirement for anything that's not compulsory, but even then adoption will be an up hill battle. #hitsm

#Hitsm I think that as soon as companies realize that they can save money by doing #HCD they’ll switch over. Until then Engineering-centric solutions are here to stay.

Babysteps are right; I’ve learned to savor even the small victory

@hcittoday @uuAbility T5: We work with #usability issues every day, in our experience there is never one answer to usability or healthIT maturity, it depends on the needs of the role-based user, accessibility to the right data at the right time in the right application. #HITsm

@ShereesePubHlth @jeremycoleman My kid told me that a C was success in school for him. Maybe Health IT has a similar mindset. #HITsm

@techguy @ShereesePubHlth Goes with "You know what they call the person that finishes last in their med school class?" "Doctor" #hitsm

@BrianMihin What would you do with that data? #HITsm

Bonus: I have a pet peeve for crazy error messages. What weird error messages have you seen lately? @uuAbility #HITsm https://t.co/ARq1bi2ME1

#Hitsm People learning to use and EHR and people that have used that EHR for years are very different. It is difficult to design a system that is easy to learn and use
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
Bonus: I wish I saved the screenshot, but I used to work with an app that would give you this message, "Error: Unknown Error." #hitsm

@jeremycoleman @ShereesePubHlth Someone taught my kid about being an entreprenuer and stuff like that. Not sure where he got it. Probably his mother :-) #HITsm
MiHIN_Brian @BrianMihin
@Bossoft @hcittoday @uuAbility This is another key thought that our organizations are learning to appreciate anew as we integrate operations. As @Wareflo often says, "If you've seen one workflow, you've seen one workflow". There's no such thing as "One size fits all" in Healthcare! #HITSM
Bennett Lauber @uuAbility
#Hitsm Or “unexpected error” When do we get to see the expected errors!
Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman
@techguy @ShereesePubHlth They pick up all kinds of stuff off the streets. Kids don't listen to their parents. #hitsm

@uuAbility From my experience, expected errors come after a release is approved by QA. #hitsm
Boston Software Systems @Bossoft
@uuAbility What works for one user, does not work for another. Most have customized their #EHR for long-term usability. 4 out of 5 clients I worked with @EMRAnswers are still using their system today, because we customized use, integrated h/w,s/w & apps. #HITsm

#HITSM It is the “Specific context of use” portion of the ISO9241 Defn of #usability that all too often gets ignored. Configuring onsite is the only way

If the messages are going to be crazy, why not just go all out? #hitsm "Error: You are doing it all wrong" "Error: The IT help Desk can't fix this, so don't bother to call" "Error: Have you tried, turning it off and turning it back on again?"

@techguy I'm being abstract, and of course speculating... But from past experience, I know that provider orgs take HCAHPS scores VERY seriously, and apply the insights toward making improvements - Leveraging the power of consumer perception to drive positive change. #HITSM
