Intro to Accounts

Welcome to the EVAL Account Reference Guide

EVAL is designed to be user-friendly, secure, and comprehensive, ensuring that you have complete control over your account. This resource is designed to help you understand and efficiently manage your account. Whether you're an individual creating your own apps or an organization with multiple members creating and sharing apps, learn how to efficiently manage your account, access important features, and personalize your experience.


Use Cases for Creating an Account

Individuals

Use Case: Independent app creation by an individual

Any individual can create and publish apps, add apps to their own library for personal use, and co-create apps with other EVAL users. Individual accounts provide more control and less oversight.

Key Benefits:

  • Maintain Control: Sole owner and administrator of account
  • Creative Ownership: Maintain ownership of apps you create within your account
  • Establish the Mission & Vision: Dictate branding and scope of influence
  • Determine Partnerships: Network and collaborate with other accounts to co-create apps

Organizations

Use Case: Clinics with an Administrator that oversees multiple providers and clinicians

An administrator creates an account and invites members within their organization to the account, each with their own profile, roles, and permissions, ensuring the appropriate access and functionality to collaborate and operate effectively within EVAL

Key Benefits:

  • Enhanced Efficiency and Productivity: Custom decision support apps can streamline healthcare-related processes to reduce waste, automate intelligent workflows to reduce error, and provide the most up-to-date information to ensure clinics can quickly adapt to new requirements and continuously improve their processes.
  • Improved Patient Care and Outcomes: Healthcare apps are an opportunity to elevate the context of care to improve diagnostics, curate treatment plans that meet your population needs and enable shared decision-making that enhances patient outcomes.
  • Cost-Effective Solutions: No-code platforms opens the door for clinicians to co-create and customize apps based on organizational and patient priorities which can lower development costs associated with traditional software development and provide access to scalable solutions that grow with the clinic’s needs.

IT Departments

Use Case: Application Development with Multiple Environments

IT departments can create multiple accounts to manage the different environments (development, test, production) required for building and deploying healthcare apps. Navigate to the IT Deployment Strategy page to learn how to create a strategy to deploy to multiple environments.

Key Benefits:

  • Environment Management: Maintain separate environments for development, testing, and production to ensure stability and security
  • Role-Based Access: Grant access to specific environments based on user roles
  • Version Control: Track changes and updates across different environments to ensure consistency and traceability

Researchers

Use Case: Collaborative Health Research

By collaborating within a citizen developer framework, researchers can harness the collective power of diverse skills and perspectives, leading to the creation of innovative, efficient, and impactful healthcare applications.

Key Benefits:

  • Enhanced Innovation and Creativity: Researches can collaborate on innovative solutions to healthcare challenges and quickly develop and test new healthcare applications, reducing the time from concept to implementation.
  • Improved Efficiency and Productivity: By distributing tasks among multiple collaborators, researchers can focus on their areas of expertise while citizen developers handle technical aspects by creating efficient and effective healthcare solutions without extensive resources.
  • Increased Impact and Reach: Collaboratively create applications that are accessible to a wider audience, including healthcare providers, patients, and other stakeholders, and foster community engagement in the process to ensure that solutions are relevant and user-friendly.
  • Decrease the Time from Bench to Bedside: Researchers can impact the point of care in real time by developing actionable content that informs practice decisions. Create feedback loops across the spectrum of care to collect data, iterate and communicate quickly.
