Vanderbilt University Medical Center developed Quill, a structured reporting tool for ambulatory care. This system aims to reduce transcription costs and paper use, while enabling future decision support and research.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Clinical Documentation
  • Ambulatory Care

Background:

  • Transcription costs for clinical notes at Vanderbilt University Medical Center exceed $6 million annually.
  • Current paper-based processing of clinical notes is inefficient and costly.
  • A need exists for a structured reporting environment to improve efficiency and data utilization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce Quill (QUestions and Information Logically Linked), a novel structured reporting environment for ambulatory care.
  • To demonstrate the capabilities of Quill in capturing clinical notes.
  • To provide a foundation for enhanced decision support and future research.

Main Methods:

  • Development of Quill, a comprehensive structured reporting environment.
