Abstract:
Widespread use of electronic health records (EHRs) among all provider types is foundational to delivery system transformation. Three in 4 nurse practitioners used EHRs in 2012 (76.0%), and 60.3% of nonusers planned to adopt within 18 months. Practice setting, younger age, and colocation with physicians were associated with EHR use. In hospitals and in settings without on-site physicians, EHR use lagged in rural areas. Implementation assistance should be targeted to nonadopters, particularly those who never or infrequently work alongside physicians and those in rural hospitals. Sustained technical assistance with using EHRs for performance improvement and care coordination is also needed.
