What is Huey?

1.

Clinician Engagement Platform

A space for clinicians to earn incentives by confirming or updating practice details and completing workforce surveys. Clinicians can now use one platform to inform endless researchers and stakeholders.

2.

Workforce Information Exchange

Researchers can access health workforce information managed by WIM through an online portal, upload surveys and provide incentives to clinicians for their help. A researcher is any organization interested in outreaching to or studying the clinician workforce.

Why does Huey exist?

1.

Valuing Clinician Effort

Clinicians are inundated with requests for information and not always incentivized for their effort.

Huey rewards clinicians for their participation with gift cards and entries into major prize drawings. Who wouldn’t complete a 10-minute survey for an opportunity to win a trip to Alaska?

2.

Data Reliability Gap

Publicly available information is outdated and unreliable.

With Huey information is kept up to date through multiple methods: updates provided by clinicians, manual verification and review by WIM Tracking, and collaborative edits by workforce stakeholders.

3.

Boosting Survey Responses

Researchers receive low survey responses; therefore, public health officials have poor data for decision making.

With Huey researchers have an engaged audience of clinicians to notify about their survey opportunity and offer incentives to each clinician.
