Weiss KD, Skelton WK, Black ER, Tuttle D, Panzer RJ, eds. 1992 (ca.). Rochester area physicians' clinical information network: Creating a community-based ambulatory care network in Rochester, New York. [Rochester, NY: University of Rochester?], 132 pp.

Annotation: This report describes the procedures that were used to establish a community-based ambulatory care network in Rochester, New York. The project explored techniques for collecting and organizing clinical information in networked practices with the intent of integrating that information with other data that is routinely collected; it also sought to investigate the primary care practices of the physicians who participated in the network. The report contains information on the development of the physician network, the technical aspects of designing the network and the database, examines patterns of outpatient care, and presents information on clinical outcome management and community-based ambulatory care. The report considers the lessons learned in the study and presents information on the current status and future plans for the network. It was funded by a grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation to the University of Rochester.
