Abstract

This chapter focuses on the use of patient-centric care management technology, utilizing personal health record (PHR) as a facilitator for improving patient-provider communication, the continuity of care, medication management, and the adoption of health information technology in care management at community health centers. A randomized trial is proposed to evaluate how patient-centric care management technology may yield beneficial effects on a series of health-care outcome measures.
