Physician Clinical Information Technology and Health Care Disparities
Medical Care Research and Review, 06/30/09
Ketcham JD et al. - The results indicate that IT has no effects on physicians’ diagnostic certainty and treatment of vignette patients overall. The authors find that treatment and certainty differ by patient age, gender, and race. Consistent with the framework, IT’s effects on these disparities are complex. Feedback eliminated the gender disparities, but the relationships differed for other IT functions and process measures. Current policies to reduce disparities and increase IT adoption may be in discord.
