Description
Despite the utility of frailty measures to identify older adults at risk, frailty instruments are not routinely used to predict risk in clinical settings using electronic health records (EHRs). This study aimed to assess the potential value of EHRs, compared to administrative claims, in providing the necessary data for variables used across various frailty instruments.
Learning Objective: - Describe the status of frailty instruments and underlying data sources
- Explain the potential data sources for frailty instruments and their application in clinical practice and population health management efforts
