Meeting Notes
- ACC provides two different methods of Surveys:
- General survey for MDs (6-8 Q) asking broad questions about challenges faced by clinicians and how IHE can improve care delivery. (no cost to IHE, will take 1-2 weeks to execute, March earliest time frame)
- Deeper dive (15-20 Q) w/ hospital execs to show the value of IHE solutions to their larger organizations. (cost will vary depending on target demographic, survey tool [on-line vs. phone] will take 6-8 weeks to execute, March or April earliest time frame)
- The decision was to start with the general survey and create the more detailed one based on the results of the general survey
- Draft questionaire, that was shared with Planning Committee prior to review with ACC Survey group
