ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
In 2005, the American Academy of Pediatrics founded the Partnership for Policy Implementation (PPI). The PPI has collaborated with authors to improve the quality of clinical guidelines, technical reports, and policies that standardize care delivery, improve care quality and patient outcomes, and reduce variation and costs.METHODS:
In this article, we describe how the PPI trained informaticians apply a variety of tools and techniques to these guidance documents, eliminating ambiguity in clinical recommendations and allowing guideline recommendations to be implemented by practicing clinicians and electronic health record (EHR) developers more easily.RESULTS:
Since its inception, the PPI has participated in the development of 45 published and 27 in-progress clinical practice guidelines, policy statements, technical and clinical reports, and other projects endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics. The partnership has trained informaticians to apply a variety of tools and techniques to eliminate ambiguity or lack of decidability and can be implemented by practicing clinicians and EHR developers.CONCLUSIONS:
With the increasing use of EHRs in pediatrics, the need for medical societies to improve the clarity, decidability, and actionability of their guidelines has become more important than ever.
