User Centric's syndicated research offering consists of employing state-of-the-art user research methods to measure efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction. Clinical users, representative of the market, will perform tasks based on use cases drawn from ONCHIT. Criterion-based measures of learnability and usability will be collected.
Usability is highly correlated with adoption. Applications that are more usable stand a higher chance of success in the marketplace.
The service is fee-based to offset costs, and all subscribing vendors will receive an extensive report on the user performance of their application. In our initial offering, the first ten subscribing vendors will receive the report, and a readout as well as expert advice on how to improve the customer experience with user interface. Health Care Organizations can have access to the report in late 2nd quarter.
The research will be run regularly and be made available to consultants and providers. Set for delivery before ONCHIT provides guidance in the Fall of 2009, solutions providers can opt in to the study before May 15, 2009.
