Overview Public Health Integration in HIT A Shared Public Health Enterprise Joint Public Health Informatics Taskforce Next Steps Public Health Integration in HIT A Shared Public Health Enterprise Joint Public Health Informatics Taskforce Next Steps

Public Health Integration in HIT “Interoperable health IT will improve individual patient care, but it will also bring many public health benefits including: - Early detection of infectious disease outbreaks around the country; - Improved tracking of chronic disease management; and - Evaluation of health care based on value enabled by the collection of de-identified price and quality information that can be compared.” Department of Health and Human Services, American Health Information Community “Interoperable health IT will improve individual patient care, but it will also bring many public health benefits including: - Early detection of infectious disease outbreaks around the country; - Improved tracking of chronic disease management; and - Evaluation of health care based on value enabled by the collection of de-identified price and quality information that can be compared.” Department of Health and Human Services, American Health Information Community

Public Health Objectives Explore important connections between HIEs and: - Improved population surveillance - Ability of public health to provide and assure quality of care Define specific strategies for overcoming policy and financial barriers that prevent increased participation of public health organizations in HIEs at all levels. Define the scope of work needed to make possible routine population surveillance using clinical data. Explore important connections between HIEs and: - Improved population surveillance - Ability of public health to provide and assure quality of care Define specific strategies for overcoming policy and financial barriers that prevent increased participation of public health organizations in HIEs at all levels. Define the scope of work needed to make possible routine population surveillance using clinical data.

What Public Health Can Offer HIEs/RHIOs Expertise and Experience in: Design/development of integrating health data (child health, NEDSS etc.) Matching and de-duplication Confidentiality, Security, State laws, Privacy and Data sharing policies Data standards: PHIN Data exchange policies and issues Consumer engagement, consenting processes Expertise and Experience in: Design/development of integrating health data (child health, NEDSS etc.) Matching and de-duplication Confidentiality, Security, State laws, Privacy and Data sharing policies Data standards: PHIN Data exchange policies and issues Consumer engagement, consenting processes

What HIEs/RHIOs Can Offer Public Health Increase ability to collect, store, analyze, and report aggregate and individual level data Populate demographic & other public health data sets Promote uniform way to share data with broader set of users: push the standards issue Improve ability to share data between registries Ability to look at person’s health data in combination with other health care data Resources & Cost sharing New Partnerships Increase ability to collect, store, analyze, and report aggregate and individual level data Populate demographic & other public health data sets Promote uniform way to share data with broader set of users: push the standards issue Improve ability to share data between registries Ability to look at person’s health data in combination with other health care data Resources & Cost sharing New Partnerships

What are the Top 3 policy issues? PH agencies and clinical sites are not interconnected Poorly articulated business case for public health benefits Absence of a strong state/local informatics infrastructure - Need to distribute funding to where the work gets done and to those who have the authority to do it - Need to begin to act as if an enterprise exists to build cohesion and momentum - Need to promote training and education PH agencies and clinical sites are not interconnected Poorly articulated business case for public health benefits Absence of a strong state/local informatics infrastructure - Need to distribute funding to where the work gets done and to those who have the authority to do it - Need to begin to act as if an enterprise exists to build cohesion and momentum - Need to promote training and education

What are the Challenges ? Limited Engagement Limited Input Limited Focus Limited Engagement Limited Input Limited Focus

Public Health Participation in Setting the National Agenda Who does Public Health need to engage? - Legislature (Congress) - American Health Information Community - Federal Agencies - Vendors/Private Sector - Standards Development Organizations - Regional Health Information Organizations - Other State Agencies (Medicaid, Insurance, etc.) Who does Public Health need to engage? - Legislature (Congress) - American Health Information Community - Federal Agencies - Vendors/Private Sector - Standards Development Organizations - Regional Health Information Organizations - Other State Agencies (Medicaid, Insurance, etc.)
