This is an old revision of the document!


  • In 2014, we described the vision of a ‘Green Button’ for using aggregate patient data at the bedside in an article in Health Affairs.
  • In 2015, we outlined the conceptual steps needed in realizing the green button vision, and for bringing cohort studies to the bedside.
  • In 2016, we built a search engine for patient timelines for rapid phenotyping to build cohorts of similar patients.
  • In 2017, we obtained IRB approval and support from a philanthropic foundation for a pilot run of the informatics consult service to realize the vision of the green button. See a 1 minute video on the project.
  • In 2018, we outlined the methods that enable the informatics consult service and wrote a perspective on why a “speciality service” and not a physical button in the EHR is the right approach for realizing our vision.
  • In 2019, we completed the pilot study, and are writing up the learnings from the first 100 consultations we served.
