1 White Paper: HIT Standards for HIM Practices Anna Orlova, Lisa Spellman Diana Warner, Harry Rhodes 2014

2 Problem Currently, it is unclear how information management (HIM) practices in healthcare organizations are supported by capabilities of health information systems (HIS) to carry out these practices. It is also unclear if current IHE profiles support necessary HIS capabilities for HIM practices.

3 IHE Universe 1. People Profile Specifiers (vendors, professional associations, HIS implementers) 2. IHE Committees where the Profiles are specified 3. IHE efforts are aimed to data/systems interoperability in the healthcare domains(examples) ITI Radiology Cardiology Other 4. Health Information Systems (HIS) that implement IHE profiles

4 HIM Practices Universe 1. People HIM Professionals (coders, record managers, HIS implementers, HIS users (MDs and other clinicians), data analysts) 2. Healthcare Organizations where HIM activities are performed 3. HIM Practices are aimed to the Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI)(examples) Data coding Clinical documentation (records) management (Data Capture, Data/Record Quality Validation, Record Management (Matching, Maintenance, Compliance, Archiving, Retention, Disposition)) Data use to inform/support clinical practice Data analysis ediscovery 4. Health Information Systems - HIS - that support HIM practices

5 HIM and IHE Universes Amalgamation Health Information Systems should support HIM practices HIM practices should inform IHE Profile Specifiers Health Information Systems built based on the IHE Profiles should support HIM practices

6 HIM and IHE Universes Amalgamation Examples of Current IHE Profiles That Support HIM Practices

7 IHE Universe ITI XDS Profiles Family Cross-Enterprise Document Sharing (XDS) Profiles Family enables a number of healthcare delivery organizations belonging to an XDS Affinity Domain (e.g., a community of care) to cooperate in the care of a patient by sharing clinical records in the form of documents as they proceed with their patients care delivery activities. This profile is based upon ebxml Registry standards and SOAP. It describes the configuration of an ebxml Registry in sufficient detail to support Cross Enterprise Document Sharing.

10 IHE Universe ITI XDW Profile The Cross-Enterprise Document Workflow (XDW) Integration Profile enables participants in a multi-organizational environment to manage and track the tasks related to patient-centric workflows as the systems hosting workflow management applications coordinate their activities for the health professionals and patients they support. XDW builds upon the sharing of health documents provided by other IHE profiles such as XDS, adding the means to associate documents conveying clinical facts to a patient-specific workflow. XDW provides a common interoperability infrastructure upon which a wide range of specific workflow definitions may be supported. It is designed to support the complexity of health services delivery with flexibility to adapt as workflows evolve. Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE).

13 IHE Universe Radiology Domain The Scheduled Workflow (SWF) Integration Profile establishes the continuity and integrity of basic departmental imaging data acquired in an environment where examinations are generally being ordered. It specifies a number of transactions that maintain the consistency of patient and ordering information as well as defining the scheduling and imaging acquisition procedure steps. This profile also makes it possible to determine whether images and other evidence objects associated with a particular performed procedure step have been stored (archived) and are available to enable subsequent workflow steps, such as reporting. It may also provide central coordination of the completion of processing and reporting steps as well as notification of appointments to the Order Placer. Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE).

16 IHE Universe Cardiology Domain The Evidence Documents Profile defines ways for data recorded in the course of carrying out a procedure step, such as observations, measurements, and results (i.e., evidence documents), to be output by devices, such as acquisition systems and other workstations; to be stored and managed by archival systems; and to be retrieved and presented or used by display and reporting systems. This allows detailed non-image information, such as measurements, CAD results, procedure logs, etc. to be made available as input to the process of generating a clinical Report, either as additional evidence for the reporting physician, or in some cases for selected items in the Evidence Document to be included in the report.

19 HIM Universe HIM Universe is Ruled by Information Governance

20 Information Governance (IG) in Healthcare Technology advances devices, telemedicine, mobile, patient generated data Data and information growth Systems* implemented without Governance and without needed rules of the road ** for functioning in digital environment * EHRs, ERPs, other clinical and non-clinical systems **principles, standards, definitions, protocols, guidelines Source: D. Green. Presentation at Health Data Palooza, June 2014

21 Information Governance Recognized as a healthcare imperative, information governance (IG) establishes the policylevel rules, investment priorities and accountabilities for managing the lifecycle of information. For healthcare, like other industries, adopting IG underscores the value of information as an asset essential for advancing the goals and priorities of the organization. In healthcare - information is necessary for safe, quality and effective care of individuals, for reducing per capita costs of healthcare which requires operational excellence, and for improving the health of population(s) Information management and control is an undeniable healthcare imperative.
