Integrating the Healthcare EnterpriseAchieving Interoperability through Implementation of Standards Michael H. Zaroukian, MD, PhD, FACP Chief Medical Information Officer Associate Professor of Medicine Michigan State University January 16, 2007
Presentation Objectives • IHE: What? Why? Who? How organized? • Healthcare provider role in developing IHE framework • Why standards are not enough • IHE process for standards adoption and implementation • Benefits, growth, strategies, integration • How to leverage IHE to enable interoperability in • Enterprises • Health information exchanges (HIEs)
IHE: A Framework for Interoperability • A common framework for harmonizing and implementing multiple standards • Application-to-application • System-to-system • Setting-to-setting • Enables seamless health information movement within and between enterprises, regions, nations • Promotes unbiased selection and coordinated use of established healthcare and IT standards to address specific clinical needs
IHE Sponsors • 1997: Founded in Radiology (RSNA) and IT (HIMSS) • Many professional societies (stakeholder representation) • American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) • American College of Cardiology (ACC) • American College of Physicians (ACP) • American College of Clinical Engineering (ACCE) • American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) • American Society for Therapeutic Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) • GMSIH (IT France), JAHIS (IT Japan), SFIL (laboratory) • Healthcare Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) • Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) • And many more….
IHE Participants and Relationships • Participants include: • Users - Clinicians, Staff, Administrators, CIOs, Governments (e.g. NIST, VA). • Vendors - Information Systems and Equipment • e.g., imaging, cardiology, devices • Consultants • Maintains formal liaison with Standards Development Organizations (SDOs): • HL7, DICOM, ISO (Liaison D), others • ISO TC215 (including ANSI) approved IHE Process and Profiles to be published as technical reports • Concerns expressed by some AHIC members not founded

Standards: Necessary…Not Sufficient • Standards are • Foundational - to interoperability and communications • Broad - varying interpretations and implementations • Narrow - may not consider relationships between standards domains • Plentiful - often redundant or disjointed • Focused - standards implementation guides focus only on a single standard IHE provides a standard process for implementing multiple standards
IHE: Connecting Standards to Care • Healthcare professionals work with industry • Coordinate implementation of standards to meet clinical and administrative needs • Clinicians and HIT professionals identify the key interoperability problems they face • Providers and industry work together to develop and make available standards-based solutions • Implementers follow common guidelines in purchasing and integrating effective systems IHE: A forum for agreeing on how to implement standards and processes for making it happen
Testing at Connectathons IHE Demonstrations Develop technical specifications Products with IHE Identify available standards (e.g. HL7, DICOM, IETF, OASIS) Timely access to information Document Use Case Requirements Easy to integrate products Standards Adoption Process
Stakeholder Benefits • Healthcare providers and support staff • Improved workflows • Information whenever and wherever needed • Fewer opportunities for errors • Fewer tedious tasks/repeated work • Improved report turnaround time • Vendors • Align product interoperability with industry consensus • Decreased cost and complexity of interface installation and management • Focus competition on functionality/service space not information transport space • SDOs • Rapid feedback to adjust standards to real-world • Establishment of critical mass and widespread adoption

IHE Implementation Strategy • Leverage established standards to allow rapid deployment and plan for futurePragmatic, Ease of Evolution • Enable architectural freedom (patient vs. provider centric, centralized vs. decentralized, scalable (from office to enterprise to IDN to RHIO) Configurationflexibility • Support breakthrough use cases: variety of care settings, care coordination, public health, PHR, EHRInteroperability for broad constituencies IHE: Offers consistent, standards-based record sharing for EHRs and other information systems
