2 How do we achieve interoperable healthcare information systems?
Enable stakeholders to come up with simple, shared solutions to common information exchange challenges Curate a portfolio of standards, services, and policies that accelerate information exchange Accuracy & Compliance Team convened to solve problem We’re going to talk primarily today about enabling stakeholders…through the Nationwide Health Information Network Exchange. Solutions & Usability Enforce compliance with validated information exchange standards, services and policies to assure interoperability between validated systems

6 Patient Scenario A primary care doctor orders a lab test and gets the test back from the lab. She schedules the patient to be seen in the office to discuss the results. Based on the results of the test, the primary care doctor decides to send the patient to a subspecialist. She sends a summary of care record to the subspecialist electronically with a summary of the most recent visit. When the patient sees the subspecialist, it becomes apparent that there is a missing test that was done at a different hospital that would be helpful in taking care of the patient. Rather than repeating the test, the doctor queries the outside hospital for the lab test that she needs.

14 NLM Vocabulary Portfolio
Support maintenance, dissemination, free US use SNOMED CT LOINC Develop, maintain, disseminate, use in services&research RxNorm (in cooperation with FDA, VA, drug information providers) MeSH, NCBI Taxonomy UMLS Metathesaurus (includes all above, HIPAA codes, many more) Create associated products, tools for users, e.g., Vocabulary subsets, mappings, extensions Lexical & mapping tools, browsers, download sites, APIs Provide customer service Documentation, training materials, query response, licensing Contribute to US HIT standards coordination, policy development

15 ONC-NLM Interagency Agreement
Sets priorities for NLM vocabulary work in support of meaningful use, e.g., Additions to SNOMED CT, LOINC, RxNorm High priority subsets and mappings Tools for value set development, maintenance Enhanced APIs Provides additional funding for some activities

16 Problem list Target: SNOMED CT (SCT) Special Challenges for MU:
Migrate from Uncontrolled or Local Vocabulary +/OR ICD-9-CM; Add value to free text notes Implement ICD-10-CM in 2013 Assets available from NLM (US Member of IHTSDO) SCT International Release (in English & Spanish) SCT web browser SCT CORE problem list subset Lexical matching tools for uncontrolled/local vocabularies KP Convergent Medical Terminology (CMT) problem subsets (6 to date, 13,000+) Mappings: SCT to ICD-9-CM (issued with SCT International Release) Frequently used ICD-9-CM to SCT – Trial version, in development SCT to ICD-10-CM (rule-based) 1st 2,000 and viewer – Trial version, Feb 2012 15,000 – June 2012 US extension to SCT, US SCT content request system Download site for all content sets, UMLS-enhanced API access to SCT Vendors (vocabulary services, EHR developers) have relevant value-added products/services

17 Medications, medication allergies
Target: RxNorm Assets available from NLM: RxNorm – monthly - including NDCs, generic names, brand names, active ingredients, UMLS IDs IDs from many commercial drug information providers (available to licensed users of specific products) Many OTCs VA NDF-RT (drug classes)* RxTerms synonyms, dose form classes* Inert ingredients (for allergy lists)– Jan 2012 release* RxNorm – weekly – drugs newly approved by FDA RxNorm Current US Prescribable Subset* RxTerms interface terminology for orders, medication lists RxNav browser, API Most popular “FindRxCUIbyID”, e.g., NDC Also “FindRemapped” – to find new RxCUI, based on one that has been retired Drug information providers & other vendors (vocabulary services, EHR developers) have value-added products/services *added in response to input from HITSC VTF and CQWG

18 Tests and measures Target: LOINC Special challenge for MU:
Get labs to report using LOINC – significant progress here Assets available (from Regenstrief Institute): LOINC (in multiple languages), including Recent expansions in coverage of patient assessment instruments, genetic tests, newborn screening, & public health surveillance tests Clinical measures, imaging tests, document architecture – in addition to lab tests Top Lab Observations & Mapper’s Guide Common Lab Orders Value Set Subsets for Test Panels & Assessment Forms (including CMS survey instruments) RELMA tool - searching (in multiple languages) & mapping Vendors (vocabulary services, EHR & LIS developers) have relevant value-added products/services

19 Public Health Reporting
Targets: LOINC, SNOMED CT Special Challenges for MU: Action required by providers, vendors, & PH entities Existing Specialized Assets: Vocabulary value sets for PH messages (CDC PHIN VADS) Notifiable conditions (CDC/PHIN VADS) CDC working with NLM, Regenstrief, IHTSDO, etc. to: Complete SCT coverage of organisms, conditions, etc. involved Update LOINC to reflect currently recommended tests Newborn screening guide (NLM) (also a subset of above) CDC & NLM in active discussions to avoid duplication of effort, ensure appropriate range of access mechanisms/tools for all affected stakeholders

20 Clinical quality measures value sets
Targets: SNOMED CT, LOINC, RxNorm, ?? Special MU challenges: Developing measures/vocabulary value sets that: Retrieve appropriate sets of patients for denominators/numerators Use vocabulary standards correctly Are maintainable as medical knowledge and standards evolve Are implementable Do not greatly expand data collection burden Identifying: Distribution formats, mechanisms, tools, etc. that will be helpful to implementers

21 Potential Next Steps for HITSC VTF
Set priorities for: 2012 Outreach targets re: available assets Consolidated distribution mechanisms New API features to facilitate access to vocabularies Additional vocabulary subsets/value sets to assist implementers
