Nicholas M. Pajewski,Kristin M. Lenoir,Brian J. Wells,Jeff D. Williamson,Kathryn E. Callahan +4 more
TL;DR: Construction of an eFI from the EHR, within the context of a managed care population, is feasible and can help to identify vulnerable older adults, as well as integrate the eFI with claims-based approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
