ABSTRACT

Primary care providers deal with multiple competing agenda items at each clinical visit with patients.  Pre-visit team meetings, or huddles, are invaluable in patient-centered care, both for agenda setting and identifying needed services for patients. This session will explore how we sought to streamline our pre-visit huddle process by capitalizing on IT advancements in the documentation of preventive care needs for patients.
