4 Moderator Brian Ahier Director of Standards and Government Affairs at Medicity A renowned expert on health information technology, specifically health data exchange and analytics, Ahier has provided consulting services to a variety of clients including the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC). He serves on the Interoperability & HIE Workgroup of the HIT Policy Committee which will make recommendations to the ONC that focus on policies that can help address implementation challenges and that promote a business and regulatory environment supportive of widespread information exchange in support of patient and population care. Examples of issues the Workgroup may consider include health information exchange infrastructure, governance, and technology. The Workgroup will also be making recommendations and provide input on the development of the Nationwide Interoperability Roadmap. Follow him on

28 JASON Report Independent group of scientists which advises the United States government on matters of science and technology. Created in 1960 as a way to get a younger generation of scientists involved in advising the government. Administratively run through the MITRE corporation which contracts with the Defense Department Their work is typically classified ONC Convened a Task Force to respond to the report

29 Industry-based Ecosystem Recommendation: A market-based exchange architecture should be defined by industry and government to meet the nation s current and future interoperability needs based on the following key concepts: Coordinated architecture. A loosely couple architecture with sufficient coordination to ensure that a market-driven ecosystem emerges for API-based exchange. Data Sharing Network (DSN). An interoperable data sharing arrangement whose participants have established the legal and business frameworks necessary for data sharing. Conform to the Coordinated Architecture and use the public API. Could include, but is certainly not restricted to, existing networks such as those run by vendors or providers or health information exchange organizations. Public API. A standards-based API that is to be implemented with certain obligations and expectations governing public access to the API. Core Data Services. Fundamental, standards-based data services that implementations of the Public API are expected to provide. Note: Our use of the term "HIE" is generic in nature and refers to general interoperability functions and should not be confused with health information exchange organizations, which are often called "HIEs" or "health information exchanges.

30 Industry-based Ecosystem (continued) The Coordinated Architecture Should not be single, top-down architecture Loosely coupled based on scalable internet principles to accommodate implementation heterogeneity Leverage and build upon existing networks, while encouraging new networks Do not envision that the Coordinated Architecture is necessarily an entity or actual implementation, but rather, standards and principles based on internet principles and building blocks

31 Data Sharing Networks in a Coordinated Architecture Recommendation: The nationwide exchange network should be based on a Coordinated Architecture that "loosely couples" market-based Data Sharing Networks The Data Sharing Networks Data sharing arrangements that provide facilitating policy and infrastructure to support use of Public APIs Within the DSN: Facilitating API-based exchange among entities. This has a technical component (e.g., what technologies are used to identify patients or authenticate users across entities?), and a policy component (e.g., what data or documents are accessible through a Public API, and what are the allowed purposes for data or documents accessed through a Public API?) Across DSNs: Implementing services to be used to bridge across different DSNs, when this is deemed necessary. This will have cross-network technical components (e.g., which standards and protocols are used for different DSNs' patient-matching or authentication technologies to interact with each other?), and policy components (e.g., how are "out of network" entities authorized, and what data or documents are accessible to authorized "out of network" entities?) Clinical and financial systems that expose the Public API will have the ability to exchange data without needing a DSN

32 Panelist Arien Malec VP, Data Platform Product Line, RelayHealth Arien Malec is the VP, Data Platform Product Line for RelayHealth Clinical, the leading cloud-based HIE, patient engagement and identity services platform. He has been with RelayHealth since 2004, where he has also had leadership positions in Product Management and Strategy, and co-developed the key ideas behind the CommonWell Health Alliance. During that time, he served an 18 month leave of absence with the Office of the National Coordinator, where he led the Direct Project and started the Standards and Interoperability Framework, which convened work on key standards included in ONC Edition 2014 certification. He previously had 10 years in Life Sciences clinical informatics for data management and pharmacovigilance. Follow him on

33 Public API as Basic Conduit of Interoperability Recommendation: The Public API" should enable dataand document-level access to clinical and financial systems in accordance with Internetstyle interoperability design principles and patterns. The Coordinated Architecture and Data Sharing Networks create an ecosystem to facilitate use of the Public API. The Public API Comprises two components an implementation of certain technical standards (the API ) an agreement to meet certain obligations governing "public" access to the API What makes an API a Public API is a set of conventions defining public access to the API A Public API does not imply that data is exposed without regard to privacy and security. However, there are legal and business considerations that must be addressed before any given healthcare provider and/or vendor would allow another party to use the API to access information. What is public in a public API is that the means for interfacing to it are uniformly available, it is based on nonproprietary standards, it is tested for conformance to such standards by trusted third parties, and there are welldefined, fairly-applied, business and legal frameworks for using the API.

34 Priority API Services Recommendation: Core Data Services and Profiles should define the minimal data and document types supported by all Public APIs. HITECH should focus initially on Clinician-to- Clinician Exchange and Consumer Access use cases. The Core Data Services Read/write access to both clinical documents (e.g., CCDA, discharge summary, etc.) and discrete clinical data elements (e.g., problems, medications, allergies, etc.) Initial focus areas for the industry: Clinician-to-clinician exchange (including ancillary service providers) Consumer access "Pluggable" apps for consumers and for clinicians Population health and research Administrative transactions

35 Priority API Services (continued) The Core Data Profiles Initial recommended focus of HITECH Tightly specify data elements and formats used in Core Data Services Priority profiles should be developed for Clinician-to- Clinician Exchange and Consumer Access Clinician-to-Clinician Exchange Complement current document-centric approaches that exist in the market today Consumer access Natural extension of View/Download/Transmit and Blue Button Leverage account services already provided by entities hosting patient portals and patient applications Could open wide avenues of growth from mhealth and pluggable app companies who are not tied to legacy software
