Area of Science:

  • Geriatric Medicine
  • Health Informatics
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • The Integrated Care Programme at Hospital Universitario de Getafe (HUG) has operated for over 25 years.
  • A significant barrier to the program's full potential was the lack of information system integration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the Integrated Care Programme for older patients at HUG.
  • To identify strengths and barriers within the program.
  • To propose and validate a technological solution to enhance integration.

Main Methods:

  • Case Study Research methodology was employed.
  • Qualitative analysis of the Integrated Care Programme using eight facilitators.
  • Design and validation of a Health Information System (HIS) mock-up with healthcare professionals.
  • Usability and user experience assessment using SUS and UEQ.

Main Results:

  • The designed HIS was validated by geriatric service professionals, achieving a System Usability Score (SUS) of 81.
  • User experience feedback was largely 'Excellent' across multiple dimensions (Attractiveness, Perspicuity, Dependability, Stimulation, Novelty).
  • Efficiency was rated 'Good', indicating potential for further system enhancement.

Conclusions:

  • The developed Health Information System effectively bridges information gaps.
  • The HIS facilitates the complete integration of the Integrated Care Programme for older in- and outpatients.
  • The system's validated usability and positive user feedback support its role in improving integrated care delivery.
