One issue I ran into is the question of how OAuth at healthcare scale works when an HIE is made up of multiple organizations in a federation. This is important as in an HIE the data returned is not exclusive to that user, but will be used by the whole organization. This is an important part of how HIE scale. The drawback is that consents within an HIE are limited to blinding of external organizations (they can still have user level blinding within their organization). MORE

The following diagram clearly shows Wisconsin leadership This is such an exciting perspective of what the Wisconsin HIE delivers today, and where they are targeting for future support.

Manual HIE Today we have Health Information Exchanges that enable Providers to send Directed Secure E-Mail messages to other Providers. Future is Automated In all of the Manual use of an HIE, there is a conscious effort to take action and use the HIE. What we really want is that the HIE capability, availability of patient data, is automatic. There should be no effort to consciously use the HIE. If the HIE can be useful, the 'system' should just use the HIE. MORE

So I often get frustrated when someone says that the HIE needs to become Patient Centered. There is no other purpose of an HIE besides the Patient. There is nothing in existing HIE that is "Provider-Centered". I truly feel sorry for Providers that are going out-of-their-way to use an HIE for the benefit of their Patient. That is to say that today the Provider gets to interact with the HIE, where as the Patient is just a passenger. MORE

If you’re running an HIE, you’re always hoping to see your participants step up their interoperability game. The thing is, few HIEs go the extra mile to make it happen, in many cases because they just don’t have the resources to tackle the problem. Given this fact, I was interested to see the recent announcement […]. MORE

In the USA there is a project called Patient Unified Lookup System for Emergencies (PULSE). It is an exemplar of functionality that can quickly enable healthcare treatment use-cases that are within the purpose of a Health Information Exchange, yet are also dynamically deployed as necessary. The video gives a good background that is important. I will let the video describe it. MORE

However I think that it is more a growth of a very interesting use-case that drove the very early HIE within Wisconsin, well before the push in the last decade. This gets to the very fact that a HIE is a very useful thing, but it costs money to build, run, manage, and support. This money needs to come from somewhere, so it is a common discussion within HIE organizations on how they can build value that can provide income to support the network. MORE

But lets assert that a good "Privacy by Design" step would be that the Insurance would have HIE like access only with authorization from the Patient. The alternative is that Payers will troll the HIE for Patients that are rich and healthy, so that they can target marketing. The last item on the WISHIN future list is moving to "Shared Responsibility for Managing Care" from "Providers & Payers working Separately". MORE

I think the most useful value-add that an HIE can add is an API that is based on FHIR. This is true of an XDS based HIE, Regional Exchange (XCA), Vendor based EHR, nationwide Exchange, and Direct HISP. At an HIE level: Initially I would focus on enabling Apps to query for and read the data available in the HIE. The HIE would implement the PDQm Supplier actor. Conclusion First step is to add a Document based Query/Retrieve interface to the HIE. MORE

There no network that I know of that provides a view of how the HIE was used to expose the Patient data. The Patient is NOT the center of existing Health Information Exchange. Yet, the Health Information Exchange exists for the sole purpose of treating that Patient. These two factual statements are completely opposite. How can they both be facts? The patient does not feel like the center. It is all about Experience. In agile terms "User Experience". MORE
