Council Committees

Programme Evaluation Committee (Co-Chair: Karen Day)


Activities: Over the last year we have participated with the AMIA WG on Health IT evaluation to update an international HI evidence bibliography: http://iig.umit.at/efmi/bibliography.htm.  Our first public statement has came out in the Pulse IT November 2013 edition (p36).  The purpose and operation of the ACHI Program Evaluation Sub-Committee was also the topic of this Pulse IT article.

We were pleased to announce regular bi-annual Health Informatics evidence reviews that the PES will lead.  Karen Day and Chris Bain will lead the review of “Patient-Accessible Healthcare Records”.  We encourage all ACHI Fellows and Members to send us articles or links on this subject matter which they believe demonstrate:

  • high quality research
