Six students from the UT Health Information Technology Summer Certificate Program were sent to work at the UT School of Biomedical Informatics in Houston as part of an NIH grant. They assisted in the development of a Quality Health Record (QHR) system meant to help physicians meet meaningful use criteria and accomplish care coordination through tools like telemedicine. The students helped specify requirements for the user interface, physician functions like referrals, and patient portal capabilities. They gained exposure to various aspects of health information technology development and implementation.
