HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Context In consumer health, smartphones and tablets are presently being used to access personal health information, often in place of using personal computers. Some Personal Health Records systems (PHR-S) now available are designed solely for use on mobile devices. The HL7 standards for Personal Health Records (PHRs), as written, did not anticipate this change. As such, questions have been raised concerning the adequacy of these standards in providing vendor guidance and in certifying modern PHR systems. Mobile device use by consumers is widespread, in both developed and developing countries. For example, in the United States there are over 320 M mobile phones in use, more than one for everyone in the population*, and over half of new devices sold are smartphones. *mobithinking.com, December 2012 data

HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Problem Overview Background The PHR/Mobile Gap Analysis Sub-group was established to determine the extent of changes needed in the PHR-S Functional Model to accommodate the use of mobile devices (i.e., smartphones, tablets) within the model. Scope Review the recently balloted PHR-S functional model to determine how the introduction of mobile devices as actors within the model may result in changes to the model. Make recommendations to the PHR-S functional model in terms of additional conformance criteria and/or creation of a mobile-specific profile for the PHR-S.

HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Key Finding One The functional aspects of HL7 ’ s Personal Health Record System Functional Model (specifically, Function Names, Statements, Descriptions, and Conformance Criteria) DO NOT need to be modified in any way to accommodate the use of mobile devices and platforms in relation to PHR applications and data. For example: “ The system SHALL capture the PHR Account Holder ’ s demographic information ” applies equally to mobile and desktop-based technology.

HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Key Finding Two Certain PHR-S FM functionality can be tailored to mobile- based PHRs and mobile-based use cases based on Mobile device properties Context of mobile device use Behaviors of individuals using mobile devices For example: Geo-location services can inform a consumer of nearby emergency room services. If a mobile device containing consumer information is lost, remote wipe functionality could also trigger backing up data to a pre- specified location.

HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Recommendation One Create one or more mobile-informed profiles for the PHR-S FM that account for use of mobile devices, including device use within specific contexts. For example: If a mobile device is used in a military theatre, the following PHR-S FM Conformance Criterion might be modified within a functional profile to read (added language in red): The system SHOULD provide the ability for the PHR Account Holder to control access to demographic information. Specifically, demographic information will not be displayed on a mobile device for military personnel who are in active combat zones; in non-combat zones, demographic information may be displayed on a mobile device.

HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Recommendation One Considerations Creation of functional profiles is a critical activity as products can only be certified against HL7 profiles, not functional models. Mobile-informed profiles can help industry deal with common issues in a standardized manner. In the absence of PHR-S mobile functional profiles, vendors using the PHR-S FM to create PHR systems should account for mobile devices as actors when determining product scope. Special care should be given to addressing security controls. For example: Availability and control of location data. Security in relation to device loss or compromise.

HL7 International and Health Level Seven International are registered trademarks of Health Level Seven International, Inc. Reg. U.S. Pat & TM Off Recommendation Two As mobile devices can be actors in many health-related scenarios, expose these findings to other HL7 workgroups where mobile devices are significant system actors for consideration as to how models and methods might be affected. For example: EHR uses of tablets and smartphones by clinicians. Structured data entry where mobile devices are used for data collection. Collection of family history information through structured forms on mobile devices to support Meaningful Use (MU) 2 standards. The appendices to this presentation include lists of mobile device characteristics, contexts of mobile device use, and user behaviors which may affect models and system functionality and are a starting point for examining current HL7 standards.
