1. September, 2005What IHE Delivers 1 Building standards-based regional and national health information networks with IHE eHealth World Interoperability Panel Malaga - May 2006 Charles Parisot GE Healthcare – IHE-Europe & IT Infrastructure Technical Co-chair

2. 2 Standards are critical but alone are not enough Standards offer generality, ambiguity and alternatives Standard Implementation Guides are focused on a single standard Increasing complexity IHE provides a standard process for implementing multiple standards!

3. 3 Connecting standards to care Care providers work with vendors to coordinate the implementation of standards to meet their needs Care providers identify the key interoperability problems they face Care providers identify the key interoperability problems they face Drive industry to develop and make available standards-based solutions Drive industry to develop and make available standards-based solutions Implementers follow common guidelines in purchasing and integrating systems that deliver these solutions Implementers follow common guidelines in purchasing and integrating systems that deliver these solutions IHE the most successful way to establish those standards for how to implement standards ?

4. 4 What is Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise? IHE provides a common framework for passing health information seamlessly: within the healthcare enterprise within the healthcare enterprise across multiple healthcare enterprises across multiple healthcare enterprises for local, regional & national health information networks for local, regional & national health information networks IHE is sponsored by healthcare professional associations: 20 across 14 countries (8 in Europe) endorsed by well over 100 Health IT vendors. IHE drives standards adoption to address specific clinical needs for interoperability

5. 5 Delivery of ready-to-integrate products to benefit healthcare delivery entities of all sizes In clinical use today in practices, enterprises Regional and national projects leveraging IHE Integration Profiles (e.g. XDS): In clinical use: Italy, Spain, UK (radiology) In clinical use: Italy, Spain, UK (radiology) In deployment: Austria, France, Norway, Canada, USA In deployment: Austria, France, Norway, Canada, USA IHE scope, today and expanding radiology, cardiology, laboratory, oncology, eye care, devices radiology, cardiology, laboratory, oncology, eye care, devices enterprise healthcare IT infrastructures enterprise healthcare IT infrastructures cross-enterprise healthcare IT infrastructures cross-enterprise healthcare IT infrastructures Regional and national eHealth information networks Regional and national eHealth information networks IHE Maturity and Acceptance

6. 6 Proven Standards Adoption Process Document Use Case Requirements Identify available standards ( e.g. HL7, DICOM, IETF, OASIS) Develop technical specifications Testing at Connectathons IHE Demonstrations Products with IHE Timely access to information Easy to integrate products

7. 7 Reality, IHE, in action, …. IHE Connectathon Video

8. 8 Achievements and Expanding Scope Over 100 vendors involved world-wide, 5 Technical Frameworks 38 Integration Profiles, Testing at Connectathons Demonstrations at major conferences world-wide

9. 9 IHE Organizational Structure Participants contribute Global Development: Radiology, IT Infrastructure, Cardiology, Lab, etc. Delegates IHE Europe IHE North America IHE Asia/Oceania Regional & National Deployment supervises reports IHE (International) Strategic Development Committee Sponsors Co-Chairs Global Interoperability IHE Domain-related Planning Committee and Technical Committee National Extensions

10. 10 What is IHE NOT? Not a standard, although it leverages them A vendor initiative, although they participate Not a governmental certification authority, but IHE support them with compliance testing Not simply a demonstration project Demos are only one means to the end: Adoption Demos are only one means to the end: Adoption Backed up by documentation, tools, testing, and publication of Technical Frameworks and Product Integration Statements. Backed up by documentation, tools, testing, and publication of Technical Frameworks and Product Integration Statements. IHE, proven for standardizing interoperability

11. 11 IHE Integration Profiles for Health Info Nets What is available and has been added in 2005 and is for 2006 Consistent Time Coordinate time across networked systems Audit Trail & Node Authentication Centralized privacy audit trail and node to node authentication to create a secured domain.
