For example, we are considering using AI to support physicians in ophthalmology , such as the prediction of retinal diseases, as well as neurology and radiology. Health Information Exchanges (HIE) seem to be emerging where integration between systems is not available. Responses have been corrected and edited for accuracy and brevity.
Such was the case at the first ever collaborative conference for health information exchange (HIE), interoperability, public health, and health equity. The Civitas Networks for Health 2022 Annual Conference, a Collaboration with the DirectTrust Summit, brought together HIEs, state agencies and interoperability experts nationwide. .
Many smart, dedicated people have relentlessly pursued nationwide healthcare interoperability, and the arrival of TEFCA represents both a major milestone and a significant opportunity for the industry to pause and carefully consider our next steps based on past attempts and current endeavors. And time, money, and talent will all be wasted.
As the next phase in the evolution of interoperability, SDC allows for the secure and near real-time sharing of health data between devices at the point of care, regardless of the manufacturer. Traditionally, we think about interoperability as HIEs (health information exchanges), but in 2024 I expect to see new models emerge.
But despite the availability of FHIR and of APIs from many vendors, interoperability is often described as “difficult and “not frictionless” according to Loyd Bittle, CEO and Founder at Innovar Healthcare. It takes a real expert with the right connections to make interoperability a reality for healthcare organizations.
But establishing an HIE and finding success can be a tremendous challenge for some states to establish in large measure because they require complex and expensive technical infrastructure. Notably, the platform is modular and provides multiple technology solutions for HIE participants. Resources for All States. For instance: .
Interoperability has to be improved and expanded, with data silos broken down and easier cross-system communication. " A key must-have toward that pop health goal, of course, is interoperability. "The problem is at the point of care, and this is where interoperability becomes so significantly important.
The IHE IT-Infrastructure committee continues to produce new and improved specifications for HIEinteroperability. Health IT Vendors should review this supplement and determine if the capabilities within meet their interoperability needs. Cross-Community Patient Discovery (XCPD) Health Data Locator and Revoke Option - Rev.
For example, medical and billing information contained in the designated record set are included, as is any EHI held by EHR software or by a health information network. The expanded definition of EHI now includes virtually any health information tied to an individual that is used in decision making. Accessing Best Practices From your Peers.
Civitas suggests that by leveraging the established infrastructure of Health Information Exchange (HIE) and Health Data Utility (HDU) models, we can develop a robust framework for AI governance in health data management. Collaboration and public-private partnerships are needed to actively involve many stakeholders in decision-making.
Following the announcement of implementation of the Carequality-CommonWell interoperability collaboration, I was fortunate enough to catch up with Micky Tripathi ( @mickytripathi1 ) to discuss this development and put it in context. Micky is bullish on interoperability, both over the near term (the next 12-18 months) and the long term.

For federal agencies and state and regional exchanges, this is an excellent time to demonstrate leadership in interoperability by joining a network that will likely provide a ready on-ramp to TEFCA. State and regional HIEs are critical to our nation’s goal of comprehensive interoperability. The Case for Federal Agencies.

For example, this has been an important effort by DirectTrust when it comes to educating users of how and when direct messaging could be used. The session started with this important question: Technology is not the barrier to interoperability. Really cool example of simple efforts that can have a big impact.
For example with the addition of Disaster to Treatment, the organization could have special handling within their Privacy Policy that authorizes access for Disaster access. I recommend that the Disaster ( DISASTER ) PurpoeOfUse be added to the Treatment.
Kentucky HIE — “They’re doing a good job matching patient data” Working with UK to connect schools with primary care clinics Why telehealth is “sputtering” Dividing & conquering MU Meditech in the hospital & medical group Partnering with Bon Secours on an ACO – “We’re just starting down that path.” McCleese also talks about St.
We talk a lot about sharing data and how it will improve patient outcomes and interoperability, but do we talk enough about how to do it safely? A great example of this is de-identified patient data sets, where we’re able to take a large volume of data and determine trends. So many good answers here!
For example, we all have a favorite gas station based on where we live and what our price and snack preferences are, this is an area where having different choices is great. More clarity will be needed on ‘information blocking exceptions’ so that they are not misused as a barrier to interoperability. The following are their answers.
Ensuring the efficient flow of information is fundamental to advancing interoperability. One example involves collaboration with pharmacies to oversee prescription monitoring, ultimately providing physicians with a more comprehensive insight into their patients’ medication regimens.
For example, the definition of EHI and how it applies to various data isn’t clear and how the 8 exceptions apply is also confusing to many. The organizations do suggest they support HHS’ efforts to “advance health data exchange and interoperability while advancing health equity for all.”
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).
"Telehealth is a great example," he said. " The example of telehealth highlights the importance of advocacy at multiple levels of government to simplify the complex regulations that make it such a challenge to use the technologies that are prevalent in so many other fields of business, he insisted.
An example of calling out SDoH was cited by Dr. Sherri Onyiego, Medical Director for the Texas Market at Equality Health. They also obtain public health data by ZIP code and data from a Health Information Exchange (HIE). We’ll see many examples of these uses in this series. So let’s face SDoH head on.
Increasing healthcare consolidation of hospitals has exacerbated the problem of lack of interoperability. There remain many opportunities for technologies to assist in achieving true interoperability. Examples are Treatment Diaries, patientslikeme , and WEGOHEALTH. From a provider standpoint. Clinical trials.
For example, today PHM is whatever a vendor decides it to be based on their own core competencies. So if analytics is the engine, what is the steering wheel, what are the tires, is HIE the gas tank, or the fueling station? Looking to HIE, as we mentioned in late 2013 , we see a need to redefine this sector.
Another example is only documents covering the last 6 months by specifying a StartTimeFrom and leaving open the stop time. IHE FormatCodes are mandatory In Wisconsin we have Interoperability What is MHD beyond XDS-on-FHIR? Thus one can ask for documents covering treatment prior to 1998.
" Dr. Patrick Ndimubanzi, Honorable Minister of State, Public Health and Primary Health Care, Rwanda Digital Health Innovation in Rwanda Let's explore 5 examples of Digital Health innovation in Rwanda ranging from artificial intelligence and machine learning to blood delivery by drones and telemedicine.
Is this just another HIE? These are just examples and may vary based on the organization’s existing technical infrastructure and requirements. A few features of the CA DxF set it apart from traditional health information exchanges (HIEs) and networks (HINs).
The importance of data and interoperability in digital health As healthcare becomes more digital, it's increasingly important to be able to share data seamlessly between different systems. Expect to hear about the challenges and opportunities of data sharing in healthcare. For: Innovators who want to improve outcomes with data.
Our IExHub will expose FHIR services to the application while an HIE using standard-based SOAP services (IHE ITI) and/or HL7 Version 2 transactions. Here is an overview of the component architecture: Note that SAMHS will be at HIMSS next week, seek out Ken Salyards out at the FHA area of the HIMSS Interoperability Showcase.
Most important, this is not an interoperability problem Nationwide Patient Identity Management, especially in a federation like the USA, is a balance between quality, privacy, and safety. Architectures IHE includes two distinct architectures at the interoperability level. Here are the IHE relevant works on the topic of Patient.
In essence, blockchain could help reshape healthcare interoperability by serving as a next-generation middleware that couples health data with decentralized, distributed, and immutable qualities, according to a new report by IDC Health Insights.
Research by consulting firm McKinsey suggests that across sectors in developed economies, a single digital platform prevails 75% of the time, citing examples of Daimler, Nike, and Unilever. It is all about the data, and who owns it Healthcare IT has been bedeviled by interoperability challenges, as everyone knows.
Intersystems is the latest HIE outfit to leverage their back end capabilities into a singular point of patient access, following the likes of Orion, NoMoreClipboard, RelayHealth/McKesson, Jardogs/Allscripts, and others. The concept of “portal sprawl” driving market appetite for a “portal of portals” was ubiquitous.
If you come from an educational hospital or a medical center that’s inside of the perimeter here in Atlanta, for example, it’s a little bit different on how they deal with their independent providers. I’m going through an HIE implementation right now with a local HIE here in Georgia. It depends on the market.
As this example demonstrates, the issue is not simply a user experience issue; it’s a deeper issue involving the emotional side of dealing with chronic disease, the burden it places on relationships with families. Empathy, listening, taking time to engage are important parts of the process. Lee's work in this regard, and her.
