Health IT Survey Compendium

The AHRQ Health IT Survey Compendium has been updated, providing a centralized source of health IT surveys that may be used in the evaluation of health IT projects.  Featuring questionnaires, interview guides, and focus group guides, the Survey Compendium contains surveys previously developed and used by health IT researchers that may inform current or future research. The surveys now include information on intellectual property and acceptable use, helping researchers identify instruments which may be used in current projects. Additionally, the survey search has been updated, allowing researchers to filter by survey type, care setting and survey focus.

  • patient safety should trump all other values; corporate concerns about liability and intellectual property ownership may be valid but should not over-ride all other considerations;
  • transparency and a commitment to patient safety should govern vendor contracts;
  • institutions are duty-bound to provide ethics education to purchasers and users, and should commit publicly to standards of corporate conduct; and
  • vendors, system purchasers, and users should encourage and assist in each others’ efforts to adopt best practices.
