The following is a guest article by Jolie Ritzo, VP of Strategy and Network Engagement at Civitas Networks for Health Health data management in 2024 is both intricate and complex.
This article is copyrighted strictly for Electronic Health Reporter. Welcome to this three-part series examining healthcare interoperability in the United States and the reasons for its slow progress. Illegal copying is prohibited.
My plan was to just go quietly into the night, but looking through the recently-released MeaningfulUse 3 requirements convinced me that I really ought to put this out there. So what about these technologies made them unsuitable for real use? But old-school interoperability just punted on the problem.
Stage 2 meaningfuluse is requiring a deeper level of patient access to their records via view, download and transmit requirements and there is even a requirement for some email messaging between provider and patient. The group’s stated purpose is to enable interoperability across the five founding members’ EHRs.
Federal healthcare organizations, such as CMS, have spent billions of dollars over the years trying to bridge the gap between medical data and quality patient care with interoperability requirements and data integration, the mesh used to try and bridge the gap. Many government rules have been written to address the […].
High-quality, reliable data is crucial to getting most things done in healthcare, especially for healthcare interoperability. We’ve made some great strides in improving interoperability, in no small part due to the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA).
The following is a guest article by Nathan Shepard, SVP of Product at Azalea Health As rural providers look to replace legacy solutions, they’re confronted with several critical decision points. One of the most pressing questions that has far-reaching ramifications is whether they should opt for an on-premises or cloud-based solution.
While the EHR Association has long supported the goals of the proposed rule, called Health Data, Technology, and Interoperability: Certification Program Updates, Algorithm Transparency, and Information Sharing Proposed Rule (HTI-1), we have a number of real concerns about the impact it would have on the industry if finalized as proposed.
This selection focuses on interoperability, the patient matching technology that undergirds aspects of interoperability, and the benefits of these technologies in the development of tools to manage patient journeys in a manner that engages patients, caregivers and providers as partners in care, advancing the quadruple aim.

government introduced the meaningfuluse program as part of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act in 2009, LTPAC organizations – notably nursing homes – and the vulnerable patients they serve have been left behind. Since the U.S. So much to consider here!
Most hospitals are not set up share their records; interoperability is still limited. Several respondents say that government regulations from the MeaningfulUse era, starting in 2009, make it hard to comply without loading each note down with duplicate information. Follow the money.
From an Interoperability perspective one is using the TLS to Mutually Authenticate. This is the concern that is addressed through Interoperability Profiling. This is all that Profiling can address, in that the Interoperability layer defines how the two sides authenticate each other. See other articles for other topics.
Michael sees the persisting lack of interoperability as something that harms the patient, harms the provider, and raises cost. Aprima belongs to CommonWell, has done some FHIR development, and Michael would like to see Congress condition Medicare reimbursement on real interoperability. Inovalon has been around for about 20 years.

Oscar and the Clinic collaborated and created an interoperability solution that yielded better analytics leading to improved ability of clinicians to manage patients and improved patient engagement. Everything doesn’t need to be on the same platform but everything needs to interoperate, communicate, share data. David Harlow.

I have written articles about each of these transitions and more. This first step is critical to Interoperability. Some blog articles I am working on: Direct HISP on FHIR - replacing XCA api with a FHIR api MeaningfulUse means IHE PDQm, MHD, QEDm, and mXDE Reverse MHD Please contact me if you have a topic you would like me to cover.
The transport identified in MeaningfulUse 2 as (b) is NOT a transport, it is a functional specification for a service that converts Direct to/from XDR. This specification shows how interoperability can be achieved when one system is using purely the secure e-mail of “The Direct Project” and another system is using IHE-XDR.

The Trump administration is proposing to use a powerful financial lever to push hospitals into making the patient’s electronic medical record interoperable – that is, readable by other care providers – and easily available to patients to download and organize via an app. Will interoperable truly be interoperable, and how quickly?
