Unfortunately, there are many barriers to integrating PRO measures, particularly computer adaptive tests (CATs), within electronic health records (EHRs), thereby limiting access to advances in PRO measures in clinical care settings.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Objective\u2003To address this obstacle, we created and evaluated a software integration of an Application Programming Interface (API) service for administering and scoring Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) measures with the EHR system.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Methods\u2003We created a RESTful API and evaluated the technical feasibility and impact on clinical workflow at three academic medical centers.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003Collaborative teams (i.e., clinical, information technology [IT] and administrative staff) performed these integration efforts addressing issues such as software integration as well as impact on clinical workflow. All centers considered their implementation successful based on the high rate of completed PROMIS assessments (between January 2016 and January 2021) and minimal workflow disruptions.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003These case studies demonstrate not only the feasibility but also the pathway for the integration of PROMIS CATs into the EHR and routine clinical care. All sites utilized diverse teams with support and commitment from institutional leadership, initial implementation in a single clinic, a process for monitoring and optimization, and use of custom software to minimize staff burden and error.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1736464","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,20]],"date-time":"2021-10-20T22:34:16Z","timestamp":1634769256000},"page":"979-983","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Implementing an Application Programming Interface for PROMIS Measures at Three Medical Centers"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Michael","family":"Bass","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Social Science, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois, United States"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Oncken","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri, United States"}]},{"given":"Allison W.","family":"McIntyre","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York, United States"}]},{"given":"Chris","family":"Dasilva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York, United States"}]},{"given":"Joshua","family":"Spuhl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Enterprise Data Warehouse, University of Utah Health System, Salt Lake City, Utah, United States"}]},{"given":"Nan E.","family":"Rothrock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Social Science, Northwestern University, Chicago, Illinois, United States"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,20]]},"reference":[{"issue":"04","key":"ref1","first-page":"254","article-title":"Health status assessment.
