Clinical Information System
  • Computer-based system that is designed for
    collecting, storing, manipulating, and making
    available clinical information for healthcare
    delivery process.
  • May be limited to a single area (laboratory
    system, pharmacy system, imaging system, etc.) or
    they may be widespread and include virtually all
    aspects of clinical records (e.g. electronic
    medical records)
  • Provide a clinical data repository that stores
    clinical data such as patients history of
    illness and interactions with care providers.
  • Includes service functions such as Hospital
    Information Systems (HIS), functional systems
    (ADT, scheduling), departmental systems (LIS,
    RIS, PIS), Computerized Physician Order Entry
    systems (CPOE), ePrescribing systems

3
HIT Stimulus target
  • Inclusion of 36.5 b to create nationwide network
    of EHRs
  • Can HIT improve health and health care?
  • Can HIT save 77.8 b each year through universal
    use of HIT?
  • What enables this dream?
  • What is meaningful use of EHR?
  • What are the components?

4
Why is HIT a high priority?
  • Patient safety
  • Increased concerns related to safety of
    prescription drugs
  • New emphasis on eliminating Healthcare Affiliated
    Infections
  • Demand for quality pay related to performance
    and outcomes
  • Cost containment in face of increasing costs of
    healthcare
  • Efficient and effective health care delivery a
    must
  • Health surveillance, biodefense and natural
    disaster increased mandatory reporting
    requirements
  • Accommodating an aging and mobile population
  • Effective management of chronic disease
  • Equal access to care - uninsured
  • Consumer sophistication and knowledge in health
    mobility
  • Increasing importance of multiple uses of data
    translational medicine
  • Movement from illness care to wellness care
  • Practice of medicine that is predictive,
    personalized and pre-emptive

5
Why is HIT a high priority?
  • Resources are becoming limited
  • Decreasing number of providers
  • Smaller hospitals disappearing
  • Long waits for appointments
  • Few walk-in appointments available
  • Changing models for healthcare
  • Consumer driven health care
  • Health savings accounts
  • Shopping mall clinics, Doc in Box clinics
  • Wal-Mart, Google and Microsoft movement into
    healthcare
  • Changes in doctors information gathering skills
  • Increase in options for testing and treatment
  • Limited connectivity among providers with
    multiple providers involved in care
  • The Healthcare Gamble who calls the play?

6
Why is HIT a high priority?
  • Volume of data about a patient has increased
    tremendously over the past decades
  • Increasing number of diagnostic tests
  • Increasing numbers and modality of images
  • Genetic testing
  • Access to data at place and time of decision
    making is critical
  • Informed decision requires data
  • Reusable data is a must
  • From bytes to kilobytes to megabytes to gigabytes
    to terabytes to

7
Why is HIT a high priority?
  • Sources and amount of knowledge have increased
    exponentially over the past decades
  • Amount of new knowledge introduced each year
    would take more than 200 years to assimilate into
    ones practice reading and understanding two
    papers each night
  • Undergraduate and graduate education is based on
    out of date concepts
  • Continuing medical education is inadequate
  • We cant learn fast enough to be effective
  • New knowledge requires new skills and new
    understanding
  • Current model is evidence-based medicine, so we
    need evidence

8
In the past
  • Patients went to their doctors only when they
    were sick.
  • Patients were not permitted to see their own
    records, and most did not want to.
  • Doctors thought patients were not able to
    understand their diseases or treatments, which
    were often not even revealed to the patient.
  • Doctors made all the decisions, usually not
    sharing options for treatment.

9
Now
  • Focus is changing from illness care to wellness,
    prevention, and preemptive care
  • Patient has access to record by law
  • Patient involved in decision-making about
    treatment
  • Google and Internet source of knowledge
  • Patients arrive at doctors office with stack of
    paper
  • TV commercials suggest drugs and say ask your
    provider encouraging consumerism
  • Personal Health Records are becoming more common

10
A Bit of History
  • After almost 50 years of development of the
    electronic medical record, we seem to be
    struggling with many of the same problems today.
  • During that same period, technology has made
    unbelievable progress new drugs, new
    treatments, new tests, communication satellites
    with almost instant world communication,
    transportation advances with rapid and easy world
    travel, creation of a global community.
  • Applications in healthcare have not kept pace
    with the technology.

11
What have we missed?
  • We have designed a system that mimics the paper
    based system we have not taken advantage of
    technology we have not stated or understood the
    problems we want to solve.
  • We have yet to answer the simple question What
    is the purpose of the Electronic Health Record,
    and how can it most effectively be used?
  • Legacy is overpowering. We are dominated by the
    past we have not been bold enough to tempt the
    marketplace with new vision.

12
A meaningful use vision
  • A ubiquitous infrastructure that permits the
    creation of an Electronic Health Record in which
    all relevant data about an individual is
    aggregated across regional, state and national
    boundaries.
  • This EHR serves all sites, views, presentations
    and purposes relating to health and health care.
  • With a single data entry, the EHR meets all data
    reporting requirements as well as health care.
    Its every thing for every body.
  • The EHR becomes an active partner, not just a
    passive data repository.

13
A meaningful use vision
  • Comprehensive data for patient care
  • Integrates data with knowledge for cognitive
    support of both providers and patients
  • Accommodate heterogeneity of many sites of care
  • Empower persons to become involved in the
    healthcare
  • Provide operational value through aggressive
    interaction with patient and provider
  • The vision depends on understanding what problems
    you are trying to solve at the moment and at that
    location.

14
CIS is about
  • Data and data management
  • The right data and only the right data
  • Complete, aggregated, timely, trustworthy,
    unambiguous, reusable, logically accessible
  • Event driven displays, logically driven
  • Knowledge and knowledge management
  • Evidence-based, up-to-date, appropriate,
    integrated into work flow, human and computer
    useable
  • Processes and work flow
  • Effectively and efficiently combines data with
    knowledge to enable optimum human decision-making
  • Monitor decisions and outcomes and provide safety
    checks, feedback and recommendations
  • Integrate data collection, presentation and
    decision support transparently into care delivery
    process

15
Value
  • Data is reusable provides value for multiple
    secondary uses
  • Analysis of patient conditions, treatments,
    outcomes, demographics and environment produce
    new knowledge that is automatically fed back into
    the care process.
  • Models of care are produced that permit
    projections for improved outcomes, reduced costs,
    higher quality.

sites of care? How do we effectively put this
package together?

17
The Current EHR
  • Fragmented patient records
  • Incomplete and unreliable data
  • Record is unstructured location of data varies
    across records
  • Poor user interfaces and inadequate data capture
  • Passive participant in care process
  • Data recorded after the fact
  • Data storage reflects particular application and
    cannot easily be used independently
  • Retrieval similar to paper record
    responsibility is on user to find critical data.
    The needle remains hidden in the hay stack!

18
The Electronic Health Record
  • Architecture designed for fast and varied
    retrieval and presentation independent of
    collection modality anticipates query
  • Purpose is to enhance and enable the care of the
    individual reusability of data is also a goal
  • Content focused on informational value contains
    only data contributing to current and future
    health of person store only what varies with
    patient data warehouse satisfies complete and
    permanent storage for legal, other purposes
  • Structured for unambiguous clarity, understanding
    and interoperability
  • Support common core throughout varied sites of
    care
  • Patient-centric one person, one EHR
  • Rich in functionality varies with site
  • Includes workflow and process management

19
So the EHRS must
  • Support multiple clinical domains and therapeutic
    areas
  • Contain imbedded Decision Support
  • Filter and screen superfluous data present data
    appropriate for circumstances
  • Support both push and pull data interchange
  • Provide data that is reusable
  • Enhance belief of data integrity, sound decision
    support, competent workflow management, and
    provide adequate privacy and security
  • Become a part of the patient care team and
    provide data and give advice supported by
    literature when and where appropriate

20
What we must have
  • Architecture of EHR that can support a variety of
    users and uses.
  • Requires independence of data from application
    set
  • Data must be interoperable it must be
    automatically reusable it must be capable of
    integrating with new data to produce new value
    and understanding.
  • Granularity of data must start at lowest levels
    to permit effective computer analyses and
    understanding
  • Reevaluate patient care and treatment as new data
    enters incorporating old data

21
And more
  • Effective and timely disease management with a
    personalized approach
  • Knowledge driven filters for presentation and
    exchange of data
  • Proactive recommendation of actions for both
    providers and patients
  • Determine factors that impact health including
    social, economic, and environmental situation.
    Focus on reducing impact of negative factors.
  • Influence the way providers practice medicine it
    must change.

22
Structured Data Storage
  • Demographics (including living situation,
    occupation, )
  • Summary Problem List
  • Procedures
  • Studies (laboratory, radiology, diagnostic tests,
    )
  • Therapies (prescription drugs, immunizations,
    blood products, alternative medicines,
    over-the-counter drugs, )
  • Allergies, adverse events, drug reactions
  • Subjective Physical Findings (history, physical
    exam)
  • Encounter (place, date_time, providers, problems,
    procedures, studies, therapies, SP, supplies,
    disposition)
  • Providers involved in care
  • Scheduling
  • Protocols and disease management, trigger event
    flags
  • Patient education record

23
A Mistake to Avoid
Too much is worse than none!

Solution requires intelligent filtering of data
rule-based data interchange
24
EHR
  • Demographics
  • Why important?
  • Includes demographics, living environment,
    occupation, family history, preferences, quality
    and nature of life, stress and pain, geocoding
  • Clinical Data
  • Why important and what content?
  • Includes laboratory tests, diagnostic tests,
    diagnostic images, subjective and physical
    findings, diseases, behavior

25
EHR
  • Treatments
  • Why important?
  • Understand why choices made define expected
    results
  • Outcomes
  • Why important?
  • Feed back to influence treatment and enhance
    knowledge and understanding of disease and
    related factors
  • The EHR must contain everything anyone might need
    as part of the healthcare process.

27
How do we know what we want?
  • Start with defining use cases, story boards or
    scenarios in order to understand actors,
    interactions, required data elements, data flow,
    trigger events, work flow, and decision support
    required.
  • Use cases are created by many groups including
    HITSP, HL7, IHE, CDISC, caBIG, VA, DOD, FDA, CDC,
  • Package as Domain Analysis Model

28
Establish a common base
  • Start with a common Reference Information Model
    on which all data items, entities, acts, roles
    and relationships are defined. ISO/HL7 RIM is a
    global standard. CEN 13606
  • Data models BRIDG, CDISC, caBIG

29
Data elements
  • Fundamental component for data interchange
  • Key attributes include
  • Unique persistent identifier code ISO OIDs,
    UMLS, other ?
  • Precise definition validated by domain experts
  • Single terminology assigned to data element
    derived from controlled vocabulary
  • Data types (HL7/CEN/ISO)
  • Standard units (ISO/HL7)
  • Classifications
  • Defined value set
  • Synonyms
  • Other attributes
  • Centrally maintained globally distributed free
    to users dynamically maintained appropriate
    tools
  • ISO 11179 underlying standard

30
The Terminology Dilemma
  • SNOMED CT (clinical terminology)
  • LOINC (laboratory tests)
  • RxNorm (orderable clinical drug codes and
    formulations, mapped in UMLS)
  • Structured Product Labeling dosing, potential
    interactions, etc.
  • VA NDF-RT (therapeutic classification,
    components, mechanism of action, physiologic
    effect, diseases treated)
  • FDA terminology sets (dosage form, packaging,
    routes, application methods)
  • MedDRA adverse events
  • ICD-9 or ICD-10 for reimbursement and clinical
  • CPT procedures
  • ICPC primary care
  • MEDCIN clinical terminology
  • IEEE medical devices
  • Local terminologies
  • Over 200 different terminologies to choose from.

Mapping is a workable solution but costs extra,
is never synchronized, and loses information.
31
An approach to semantic interoperability
32
Compound data elements
  • Attributes similar to data elements
  • Examples include blood pressure, heart murmur,
    titers
  • Expressed as

    results, body mass index, pulmonary functional
    tests
  • Administrative such as name, address, telephone
  • Extended into data groupings
  • patient admit profile
  • TB screen
  • Well-baby workup
  • Clinical trial component
  • Trigger-driven data transport profiles
  • Data required when a patient is transferred from
    hospital to nursing home
  • Disease Management Profiles

34

What is behind this model?
  • Standards
  • Infrastructure to support aggregation of data
    into a single patient record which requires
  • Infrastructure to support a regional network
  • Infrastructure and linkage of regional networks
    to provide a virtual national network
  • A business case based on supported facts and
    includes a financial model that balances rewards
    with costs
  • A workable process that permits us to reach the
    destination in doable chunks
  • Understanding and creating the necessary linkages
    among stakeholders
  • State efforts blended into a common process that
    will support interoperability among states

55
These views must serve
  • Real-time connectivity to provide appropriate and
    controlled access to aggregated patient data.
  • Disease registries permit the monitoring and
    assurance of high quality care.
  • Research databases are derived for specific
    purposes and for specific periods of time.
  • Reimbursement is derived from clinical data,
    ideally in real time.
  • Accreditation, credentialing and statistical
    reporting are derived products.
  • The data warehouse contains all data for legal
    and archiving purposes.
  • Support consumer driven healthcare
  • Mandatory reporting such as immunizations, HAI,
    etc.

Institutional EHR
  • Presents a provider-centric view of the patients
    record
  • Record contains patient data as well as
    intellectual content from provider of care
    serves multiple purposes may contain notes of
    provider only.
  • Patient should have access to data and be able to
    identify errors and require correction of errors
  • Content is driven by the institutional needs and
    varies from site to site
  • Should contain all data important for patients
    care plus other data required by the institution
  • Constitutes the billing record
  • There is a need to interchange data with other
    sites at which patient receives care
  • EHRS support full functionality for site care and
    management

58
The Inpatient View
  • Deals with acute events and data has mostly
    immediate value for decision making and
    intervention. After intervention occurs, data
    has less value. (Short persistence)
  • Required functionality deals primarily with
    service activities ordering, results review,
    admission and discharge
  • CPOE systems particularly valuable to support
    services
  • Real-time decision support valuable
  • Inpatient version of ePrescribing, unit dose
  • Patient monitoring, medical device component of
    IT support
  • More tolerance for additional time required for
    IT activities
  • Administrative support provides value to
    physicians rounding data
  • Intensive care even more acute. High payoffs for
    decision support very short persistence of data

59
The Inpatient View
  • Presentation of data for direct patient care
  • Ease documentation requirements
  • Evidence-based clinical pathways/guidelines/protoc
    ols
  • Multiple views of data, usually time-oriented
  • Automatic creation of discharge summaries
  • Task and workflow management
  • Automatic linkage to task management
  • Coupled to scheduling for radiology and
    diagnostic tests, e.g.
  • Patient location, patient status
  • Asynchronous communication among healthcare
    providers and workers

60
Outpatient view
  • Data vary over a longer period of time. Data
    have a longer persistence.
  • Trend analyses are important.
  • Outpatient ePrescribing valuable medication
    history key.
  • Focus on prevention and management of chronic
    disease.
  • Primary responsibility, with patient, for the
    patients overall health, i.e., medical home
  • Educational and behavioral modification
  • Depends on integration of data from multiple
    sources
  • Provider overhead for IT critical

61
Shared or Population View
  • A summary record (essential EHR) from all sites
    and sources of care RHIO EHR
  • Linkage of data for new sites of care as well as
    base for population surveillance, research,
    quality, analysis
  • Data arrives as identified data, available as
    de-identified
  • Data source for authorized providers provides
    connectivity
  • Provides
  • Utilization data
  • Accurate and timely statistics about health and
    disease in population
  • Accurate reporting of events, disease and
    outcomes
  • Early discovery of outbreaks, new diseases,
    bioterrorist attacks
  • Immunizations, infectious disease tracking
  • Creation of on-the-fly randomized clinical
    trials
  • With geocodes, permits understanding statistics
    of health, spread of disease

62
Personal Health Record
  • Permitting the patient to view an institutions
    EHR is NOT a PHR
  • PHR has three components
  • Clinical data that will be similar to the summary
    health record plus data that is entered directly
    or by sensor into the PHR. Clinical data is
    downloaded from sites of care. Data may be
    uploaded to site EHRs.
  • Management of a persons health including prompts
    for appointments, medication refills, screening
    tests, immunizations, etc. Decision support
    algorithms suggest what provider should be doing
    in terms of frequency of visit, tests, etc.
  • Access to knowledge that is tailored to a
    persons needs and is driven by clinical data.
  • May be located at a site of care, at a PHR
    provider or on the persons personal computer.
    Backup issues are important.

Regional Center
  • Accommodates 3 to 5 million persons
  • Contains summary, aggregated data
  • Is a local database
  • Available 24/7
  • Contains linkages to other centers so patients
    crossing boundaries of regions can be aggregated
  • De-identified data available for local or global
    queries and analysis

65
Regional Healthcare Information Organizations
Estimate approximately 100 such centers at
implementation cost of 3m each and operational
cost of 1 M.
RHIO
  • Each RHIO provides backup for other RHIOs.
  • MPI identifies home RHIO

66
Regional Health Information Organizations
  • Regional collaboration of multi-stakeholder
    organizations working together to connect
    healthcare communities with the goal of improving
    quality of care, safety and efficiency
  • Typical objectives
  • Develop community-wide health information
    exchange
  • Create healthcare portal with interoperable
    applications
  • Create a training and support infrastructure to
    ensure adoption of applications
  • Engaging payers in programs that align incentives
    appropriately

67
National Healthcare Information Networks (NHIN)
  • To provide a secure, nationwide, interoperable
    health information infrastructure that will
    connect providers, consumers, and others involved
    in supporting health and healthcare.
  • E-health information to follow the consumer, be
    available for clinical decision making, and
    support appropriate use of healthcare information
    beyond direct patient care so as to improve
    health
  • De-identified regional data can be analyzed
    nationally in aggregate. There is a national MPI
    which permits authenticated and authorized access
    to RHIOs for legal health-related purposes.
  • Security and privacy are top priorities.

68
A minimal EHR system
  • Simple design. Minimum system supports
    demographics, lab, meds, brief history and
    physical, appointments, encounters, reimbursement
    and limited decision support.
  • Component design so enhancements can be added as
    desired.
  • EHR contents are interoperable with larger, more
    complex systems.
  • Make systems maintenance free and simple to use.

69
An EHR For All The World
  • Use Service Oriented Architecture approach
    design components that can be easily connected.
  • Determine immediate problems to be solved then
    implement those components to meet those goals.
  • Keep it simple do in manageable chunks grow
    systems as needs expand and new problems can be
    engaged

ePrescribing, billing
71
Creative vision
  • Rather than using technology to identify medical
    errors, use technology to prevent medical errors.
  • Real time analysis of data to direct safe and
    quality care.
  • Dashboard displays at each level to focus on
    priority interventions.
  • Stop errors before they happen
  • Order timely and effective testing for disease
  • Proactive presentation of data with understanding
    of next event.

72
What else do we want?
  • A system that helps not hinders
  • A system that assures patient safety and insures
    quality care
  • A system that supports public health
  • Health surveillance
  • Epidemiology data in my area of care
  • Disease prevalence by region, age , gender, race,
    social status
  • A system that enables transitional medicine
    shorten time from bench top to bedside

73
Why Global?
  • Maximize use of available resources common
    effort and share amplification of productivity
  • Enhances understanding of the problems
  • Share in creation and use of knowledge clinical
    trials should be ubiquitous
  • Funding for research should be global and shared
    cost should not limit availability
  • Mobility of disease disease knows no borders
  • Mobility of people
  • Preserve culture
  • It just makes sense the world is one!

74
What the future must bring
  • An EHR designed to take full advantage of
    technology and embraces new concepts
  • Push technology that delivers what the provider
    needs in form, time, content, and based on the
    next event
  • Dashboard presentations based on closed loop
    systems. Heads-up displays instant awareness.
  • Providers not only accept EHR but change the way
    they practice medicine (a necessity)
  • Connectivity and completeness
  • Enables accessibility wherever the patient is
  • Reusability
  • Establish and track metrics for health outcomes,
    quality of care, performance, access,
    disparities, and efficiency
  • Permits projection for resource requirements for
    health care

75
What does HIT have to do with world health and
world peace?
  • HIT contributes to higher quality of life
  • HIT enables equality of life
  • HIT provides equal access to care and treatment
    based on current knowledge
  • HIT enables education, provides jobs and
    contributes to ability to work thus contributing
    to society
