#HealthInformatics course in 2007. Instructor had a joke: “standards are great and so many to choose from.”

Feds could help by regulating standards,, such that all data transfer conforms. Middle men like Change would be obsolete.

In 2010 clinic moved from 1 Epic system to another. They used different vendors for drug ID. Epic said it was “risky” to map so it was done manually (No risk there?). I asked about federal RxNorm for ID but was dismissed. Proprietary➡️ switching costs➡️ profit

My take on the great work from NYU Langone regarding integration of #HealthInformatics and #IT to ease the way for #innovation. Summary: be intentional, be iterative, and take a holistic approach to include all stakeholders. #winning https://www.nordicglobal.com/blog/fostering-collaboration-integrating-informatics-and-it-for-patient-centered-care

Fostering collaboration: Integrating informatics and IT for patient-centered care

In this edition of The Checkup, Craig Joseph, MD, discusses the integration of health informatics and operational IT for patient-centered care in modern healthcare and how merging the two improves efficiency and enhances the patient experience.

All You Need Is Context: Clinician Evaluations of various iterations of a Large Language Model-Based First Aid Decision Support Tool in Ghana

As advancements in research and development expand the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), there is a growing focus on their applications within the healthcare sector, driven by the large volume of data generated in healthcare. There are a few medicine-oriented evaluation datasets and benchmarks for assessing the performance of various LLMs in clinical scenarios; however, there is a paucity of information on the real-world usefulness of LLMs in context-specific scenarios in resource-constrained settings. In this work, 5 iterations of a decision support tool for medical emergencies using 5 distinct generalized LLMs were constructed, alongside a combination of Prompt Engineering and Retrieval Augmented Generation techniques. 50 responses were generated from the LLMs. Quantitative and qualitative evaluations of the LLM responses were provided by 13 physicians (general practitioners) with an average of 3 years of practice experience managing medical emergencies in resource-constrained settings in Ghana. Machine evaluations of the LLM responses were also computed and compared with the expert evaluations. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest. ### Funding Statement This study did not receive any funding ### Author Declarations I confirm all relevant ethical guidelines have been followed, and any necessary IRB and/or ethics committee approvals have been obtained. Yes I confirm that all necessary patient/participant consent has been obtained and the appropriate institutional forms have been archived, and that any patient/participant/sample identifiers included were not known to anyone (e.g., hospital staff, patients or participants themselves) outside the research group so cannot be used to identify individuals. Yes I understand that all clinical trials and any other prospective interventional studies must be registered with an ICMJE-approved registry, such as ClinicalTrials.gov. I confirm that any such study reported in the manuscript has been registered and the trial registration ID is provided (note: if posting a prospective study registered retrospectively, please provide a statement in the trial ID field explaining why the study was not registered in advance). Yes I have followed all appropriate research reporting guidelines, such as any relevant EQUATOR Network research reporting checklist(s) and other pertinent material, if applicable. Yes All data produced in the present study are available upon reasonable request to the authors. <https://bit.ly/snoocodered-context-matters>
