Summary |
In 2011, we conducted a qualitative in-depth interview study to explore the role that electronic health records play in shaping perceptions of privacy and disclosure among stigmatized individuals seeking health care. We wanted to understand how the use of health information technology in clinical settings shaped patient-provider interactions. We undertook this study as part of larger, multidisciplinary endeavor to understand the broad privacy and security implications of emergent health information technology in the United States. In the years prior to the study, electronic health records were predicted to have both positive and negative impacts on health care delivery and clinical interactions. However, because of the rapid proliferation of these technologies, few systematic observations or evaluations yet existed to assess and inform their development and implementation, particularly among groups historically avoidant of care. This case provides an account of the methods we utilized to sample and interview a select group of individuals who may have experienced stigma to understand the role that electronic health record use plays in shaping perceptions of privacy, clinical interactions, and disclosure |
