Study on Improving Electronic Communications Between Patients and Providers

I will be interviewing parents who use an online patient portal to speak with their children's pediatrician. I will be asking questions about how these communications go and how they feel about these interactions. I am conducting this study to learn more about patients' opinions about how doctors communicate, and these opinions will help me make recommendations to help doctors communicate more effectively.

Provider Triage Study

We are studying the triage decision making process of healthcare providers. Our goal is to understand what factors influence the triage decision making process. With the growing burden of emergency department overcrowding and strained hospital capacity, the need to keep patients out of the emergency department is great, when safely able to do so. A better understanding of how and why patients are triaged can help direct work to safely care for patients in the outpatient setting.
