This qualitative study aimed to understand how early adopting health care organizations (HCOs) implement the documentation of patients' disability status and accommodation needs in the electronic health record (EHR). The authors conducted qualitative interviews with HCOs that had active or past initiatives to implement systematic collection of disability status in the EHR. The interviews elicited participants' current experiences, desired features of a standard EHR build, and challenges and successes. A team-based analysis approach was used to review and summarize quotations to identify themes and categorize text that exemplified identified themes. Themes identified from the interviews included "why" organizations collected disability status; of "what" their EHR build consisted, including who collected, how often data were collected, and what data were collected; and "how" organizations were implementing systematic collection. The main purpose for collection of disability status and accommodation needs was to prepare for patients with disabilities. Due to this priority, participants believed collection should (1) occur prior to patients' clinical encounters, (2) be conducted regularly, (3) use standardized language, and (4) be available in a highly visible location in the EHR. Leadership support to integrate collection into existing workflows was essential for success. Patients with disabilities experience significant disparities in the receipt of equitable health care services. To provide equitable care, HCOs need to systematically collect disability status and accommodation needs in the EHR to ensure that they are prepared to provide equitable care to all patients with disabilities.
