OpenNotes Webinar: Disconnections & Dead Ends - Fixing Proxy Access for Older Adults in Patient Portals

Opennoteswebinar

OpenNotes is holding a webinar May 13 on "Disconnections & Dead Ends: Fixing Proxy Access for Older Adults in Patient Portals."

Portal proxy access is when a care partner has shared access to a person’s online patient portal information. The webinar will talk about a new initiative by OpenNotes and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health that aims to help fix the gaps in health information technology for older adults. Presenters will give a status update on a multi-site demonstration project serving older adults in Portland, OR, Rochester, NY, and Salt Lake City, UT, and a patient and physician/family care partner will describe their lived experiences navigating proxy access.

Presenters include:

  • Jennifer Wolff, PhD, Eugene and Mildred Lipitz Professor of Health Policy & Management at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
  • Liz Salmi, Communications & Patient Initiatives Director for OpenNotes at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
  • David A. Dorr, MD, MS, internal medicine doctor and OHSU’s Chief Research Information Officer
