Abstract
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) continues to promote the utilization of electronic health records (EHRs) to support population health management and reduce disparities. However, access to EHRs with capabilities to disaggregate data or generate digital dashboards is not always readily available in rural areas. With funding from CDC's DP-18-1815, the Division of Diabetes and Heart Disease Management (Division) at the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control designed a quality improvement initiative to reduce health disparities for people with hypertension and high blood cholesterol in rural areas. With support from a nonprofit partner, the Division used qualitative evaluation methods to evaluate the extent to which practices were able to disaggregate data and report quality measures.
