CareSpark commitment to IHE- compatible architecture Accommodates both federated and centralized document repositories and clinical data repositories (hybrid model) Utilization of internet between secure nodes via encrypted, dual-authenticated links Centralized audit management, security, and consent policies IHE is promoted and supported by Federal standards bodies which worked to define standardized data sets and formats That CareSpark Will Leverage The IHE Cross- Enterprise Document Exchange (XDS) Profile

Gaps for IHE and CareSpark Patient Consent Identity Management Central Repository for public health improvement Clinical Data Presentation

Patient Consent – CareSpark and IHE CareSpark Consensus: Passive enrollment mechanism Control consent at the patient/provider level Providers help patients manage their consent CareSpark never stores or transfers non-consensual data Questions for IHE: How do IHE solutions accommodate patient consent? How does consent connect to EMPI and IHE network? Is Basic Patient Privacy Consent ready for prime-time use? Are there demonstration projects?

Identity Management – CareSpark and IHE CareSpark Consensus: Develop federated trust network across CareSpark providers Minimize overhead of identity management at CareSpark level Questions for IHE: What is practicality of XUA implementation across Vendor Consortium solutions? Are there demonstration projects we should look to as a reference?

Centralized Repository – CareSpark and IHE CareSpark Consensus: Easy way to report health metrics and monitor public health # of Patients with ICD-9 code of (Diabetes) and having two HgA1c values at least 91 days apart during the 12 months prior to the date of data gathering Reporting and analysis (research, surveillance) Questions for IHE: What part of XDS and/or vendor solutions address this?

Clinical Data Presentation – CareSpark and IHE CareSpark Consensus: Present RHIO data in clinicians native systems (not a separate portal whenever possible) Have physician-centric view of XDS clinical data within providers native EHR systems Integrated with local data Not a big list of other HIE data Questions for IHE: What are vendors doing to make document-centric XDS data usable to physicians? Have directions been defined about document grouping for display?

Why does CareSpark matter? Voluntary commitment to interoperability (local, regional, state, national, international) Participation in NHIN prototype demonstrations, state-level pilots Private-sector, market-driven approach to assure sustainability Attention to outcomes and measurable results

Who are we? CareSpark plans to be RHIO Done Right
