S&I+Framework+Browser+Usability+Test

Thank you for participating in the S&I Browser Usability Focus Groups!

This session will help the S&I Framework to assess how easy to use the S&I Browser is, and how well it meets the needs of public consumers seeking S&I Framework Artifacts. The S&I Framework Browser is the one-stop shop to search and download completed artifacts and other resources produced by the S&I Framework Initiatives. The intention is for members of the healthcare IT community to be able to easily and effectively locate and access the relevant S&I artifacts using the search and download features available in the S&I Browser.

In this session, we will introduce basic navigation and search functionality of the Browser website. Using hypothetical scenarios, we will ask you to navigate through the site on your own, and share your opinions and reactions. You will play the role of a community member of one of the S&I Framework initiatives with artifacts posted to the S&I Browser (Transitions of Care, Lab Results Interface, Providers Directories), and you want to locate the artifacts relevant to your Initiative.

Please be aware that the Browser only stores completed (i.e. consensus approved) artifacts. Initiatives such as Data Segmentation for Privacy and esMD will not have any documents currently posted to the repository at this time. The scenarios we will cover today were designed based on the files available in the Browser as of February 2012.
