The growing use of APIs in healthinformation technology innovation for patient care has been a boon to speeding development placed in the hands of providers and patients. Using APIs can help drive interoperability and make data “liquid” and useable. Sidebar on “what is an ‘API?
Public vs. Private Oversight of Mobile Health. mHealth, known for rapid innovation and iteration, has a tendency to buck at the snail’s pace of FDA regulation. This could herald a new age of credibility for mHealth. The group’s stated purpose is to enable interoperability across the five founding members’ EHRs.
At the same time, the technology market presents growing complexity, worsening privacy issues, and interoperability limitations, while not effectively lowering the cost of access or the price of useful devices. At 65, older adults have longer life expectancy than previous generations.
And often considered an important part of health IT initiatives and clinical care services. mHealth is term used to describe the use of wireless and mobile devices to generate, aggregate and disseminate healthinformation. Interoperability. Interoperability is NOT the same thing as healthinformation exchange.
There are hospitals within the same healthcare system in many places with disparate EHRs which do not talk to each other or exchange information. Increasing healthcare consolidation of hospitals has exacerbated the problem of lack of interoperability. From a provider standpoint. Clinical trials.
I'm teaching this week - health informatics to nurses, public health and health administration students. Last week we discussed standards and interoperability; and it reminded me of a story. The memory was triggered by student discussions. One said it must.
Thus you can also send me a question to my gmail address which simply is my name - JohnMoehrke The rules are simple: Topics I'll cover include anything in my banner specific to Healthcare Interoperability Standards HealthInformation Exchange, Document Exchange XDS/XCA/MHD, mHealth, Patient Identity, Provider Directories, FHIR, Consent, Access Control, (..)
The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and the road to our digital health utopia of seamless data interoperability and transparency is littered with rusted hulks of other really great ideas. Ultimately, success in this effort is as much about controlling unit prices as it is about anything else.
Digital health interventions help patients manage their health via computers, smartphones, and even virtual reality , and can be used, for instance, to facilitate targeted communications to individuals through reminders and health promotion messaging in order to stimulate demand for services and broaden access to healthinformation.
Some have called on policymakers to extend HIPAA to cover mHealth apps and other online platforms. In the latest post in our series — “The Health Data Goldilocks Dilemma: Sharing? Why Should Anyone Care About Health Data Interoperability? ; Miller, Jr. and Marielle Gross, MD, MBE, September 9, 2019.
The developed markets are now moving to a new digital health model with increasing adoption of cloud and mobile- based technology in the healthcare system. But integration and interoperability challenges of existing traditional models will make this progress slower. Singapore is now transitioning to a new digital health model.
Security and Privacy As with any Interoperability API dealing with Healthcare information, Security and Privacy are important. IHE doesn’t mandate a specific Security or Privacy model, as that would be Policy. But IHE does encourage the use of ATNA, and IUA.This also described on the FHIR Site on the Security page.
Data needs to be available in a connected hub of records in which patients can grant physicians and insurance providers access to their personal healthinformation. It becomes far more difficult for patients to access and transfer their medical records when switching doctors or insurance providers.

By providing increased visibility of personal health data and access to richer information on patient and consumer health, these advancements are leading us towards a convergence of individuals, new information and insights, technology and increased connectivity to optimise personal health care and outcomes.
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) : the use of connected electronic tools to record personal health and medical data in one location for review by a provider in another location, usually at a different time. Mobile health (mHealth) : health care and public healthinformation provided through mobile devices.
Next week is that proverbial event we all, in the HIT industry, look forward to with some trepidation – HIMSS’14. For an analyst firm such as ours HIMSS provides us a great opportunity to talk with end users, vendors of all stripes and just reconnect with like-minded folks.

Interoperability: Health IT's hardest problem is (finally) at an inflection point. With FHIR 4, Open APIs, Carequality and CommonWell reaching a milestone of sorts and the finalized information blocking rule from Health and Human Services coming, the table is set for notable advancements in healthinformation exchange.
