Propose phased implementation approach 4. Discuss findings and proposal 5. Receive Governance Body approval on draft implementation plan FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

8 Initial Preparation and Logistics for Sites PMO Integration Lead: Rob Brown (Deloitte) 1. Site Readiness Calls Conducted initial calls with sites to introduce Digital Bridge / PMO and provide sites an opportunity to ask any questions Sites calls completed a developed questionnaire about site readiness in preparation for site implementation 2. Basecamp Maintain Basecamp for the use of standard activities with sites (agenda, meeting minutes, document collaboration and storage, etc.) 3. SharePoint Track and document progress of implementation sites Store de-identified test data 4. Additional Preparation in the Coming Weeks Site Kickoff Calls, Onboarding Guide, and APHL & CSTE Coordination Calls FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 9, 2017

9 Initial Site Coordination Calls The PMO held initial coordination calls 3/2 3/6 with each of the sites: Public Health Agency Health Care Provider EHR Vendor California UC Davis Epic Houston Houston Methodist Epic Kansas Lawrence Memorial Hospital Cerner Massachusetts Partners HealthCare Epic Michigan McLaren Health Center NetSmart (HIE-MiHIN) New York City Institute of Family Health Epic Utah Intermountain Healthcare Cerner FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

10 Agenda: Initial Site Implementation Calls The PMO had 30 minute calls with each site to review the following: 1. Reviewing an abbreviated site readiness form from APHL/CSTE with each site 2. Reviewing new phased approach being proposed to the Digital Bridge Governance Body on March 9 3. Outlining the basic timeline for implementation being tentatively April September 2017) and asking if there were any schedule blockers during that timeframe for each site 4. Providing preliminary information on the Technical Implementation Workgroup plans for coordinating implementation activities as well as operational collaboration tools (i.e. Basecamp for document repository/meeting collaboration, SharePoint for de-identified test data repository) 5. Answering any questions the sites may have FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

11 Findings: Initial Site Implementation Calls Findings 1. The PMO gathered the following overall findings from calls: A. Vendor support for payload of eicr (either 1.0 or 1.1) during the proposed Digital Bridge implementation timeframe (April September 2017) varies Michigan has plans to implement eicr fully during the Digital Bridge implementation Other sites plan to use another CDA document (i.e. Transitions of Care) in place of an eicr until eicr support is fully built into their products B. Limited commitment to to implement optional Reportability Response requirements Michigan plans to implement the requirements Houston has interest but working through vendor support FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

12 Findings (cont d): Initial Site Implementation Calls 2. Several sites asked for clarification of plans from test to production case report exchange 3. Several sites asked for more specific legal and policy guidance on data sharing agreements 4. One site (New York City) asked about the possibility of testing reportable conditions beyond the 5 specific for the Digital Bridge test implementations 5. Several sites have calendar and operational considerations they would like taken into account in phasing assignments: A. Kansas and Utah suggested they be assigned to the same phase due to sharing a vendor (Cerner) and collaborating on many other surveillance projects B. Kansas requested they finish their implementation by July 1 C. Massachusetts requested they be scheduled for July-August due to other system go-lives earlier in the summer FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

13 Proposed Phasing: ecr Implementation Sites Phase 1 (tentatively April - May 2017) Michigan, California Phase 2 (tentatively June July 2017) Kansas, Utah Phase 3 (tentatively August September 2017) Houston, Massachusetts, New York City FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

14 Rationale for Proposed Phasing of ecr Implementation Sites Phase 1 Michigan is currently prepared and willing to implement all requirements for the Digital Bridge, including eicr and Reportability Response California is the site least familiar with Digital Bridge and can help test the completeness and accuracy of the implementation plan Phase 2 Considers Kansas and Utah requests that they be phased together and Kansas request to be done by July 2017 Synergies from sites having common vendor (Cerner) Phase 3 Considers Massachusetts request to be phased in July/August 2017 Synergies from sites having common vendor (Epic) FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

15 Proposed Implementation Timeline Initial Draft Activity Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Identify data sharing and business associate agreements Setup AIMS & RCKMS Infrastructure at individual sites Test planning activities Create test data evaluation plan Configure site specific technical/ staging environments Testing phase Evaluation Defect tracking and resolution Production data cutover FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 9, 2017 Activities for All Sites Activities for Phase 1 Sites Activities for Phase 2 Sites Activities for Phase 3 Sites

16 Discussion: Objectives for ecr implementation Jim Jellison FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017

17 Objectives for ecr Implementation At least one site will demonstrate ecr capacity during implementations 1. EHR implements all codes in Reportable Condition Trigger Codes (RCTC) 2. EHR has capability to update triggers 3. EHR can generate an eicr (1.1) for all conditions, based on all types of triggers 4. EHR is able to send eicr to APHL Informatics Messaging Services (AIMS) Platform 5. AIMS is able to invoke CSTE s Reportable Conditions Knowledge Management System (RCKMS) 6. RCKMS is able to evaluate eicr 1.1 and provide determination of reportability 7. AIMS is able to route Reportability Response (RR) to HC partner 8. AIMS is able to route eicr 1.1 and RR to appropriate PH jurisdiction(s) 9. PHA consumes eicr report and stores report information into surveillance system 10. EHR is able to move forward with the initial implementation in place to a production implementation 11. PH jurisdiction is able to move forward with the initial implementation in place to a production implementation FOR MEETING DISCUSSION USE ONLY 3/9/2017 Version - March 8, 2017 DRAFT - March 8, 2017
