I discussed the current state of the EHR with Michael Nissenbaum of Aprima. The EHR has always been a data collection tool, a mechanism for data aggregation. Michael sees the persisting lack of interoperability as something that harms the patient, harms the provider, and raises cost. Inovalon has been around for about 20 years.

government introduced the meaningful use program as part of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act in 2009, LTPAC organizations – notably nursing homes – and the vulnerable patients they serve have been left behind. Since the U.S. So much to consider here!

Oscar and the Clinic collaborated and created an interoperability solution that yielded better analytics leading to improved ability of clinicians to manage patients and improved patient engagement. Everything doesn’t need to be on the same platform but everything needs to interoperate, communicate, share data. David Harlow.

The transport identified in Meaningful Use 2 as (b) is NOT a transport, it is a functional specification for a service that converts Direct to/from XDR. This specification shows how interoperability can be achieved when one system is using purely the secure e-mail of “The Direct Project” and another system is using IHE-XDR.

My plan was to just go quietly into the night, but looking through the recently-released Meaningful Use 3 requirements convinced me that I really ought to put this out there. So what about these technologies made them unsuitable for real use? But old-school interoperability just punted on the problem.

This seems to me a reasonable way to identify duplicates, although one can question what happens when an EHR automatically generates text. Most hospitals are not set up share their records; interoperability is still limited. Several respondents pointed out that the primary purpose of EHRs is billing, not treatment.

I have written articles about each of these transitions and more. Up to now we have focused on getting EHR to publish or simply make available the data they have. This first step is critical to Interoperability. The other slide decks further elaborate on this plan. It is driven by delivering Value, not just Volume.
