Structure of the presentation
• existing electronic cooperation in the social sector– the problem– the solution– basic principles– advantages
• towards an electronic cooperation in the health care sector, based on the experience of the social sector– objectives– useful building blocks– Be-Health platform
![Page 3: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Actors in the Belgian social sector• about 2,000 public and private institutions at several
levels (federal, regional, local) dealing with– collection of social security contributions– delivery of social security benefits
• child benefits• unemployment benefits• benefits in case of incapacity for work• re-imbursement of health care costs• holiday pay• old age pensions• guaranteed minimum income
– delivery of supplementary social benefits– delivery of supplementary benefits based on the social security
status of a person
![Page 4: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
4Frank Robben
The problem• a lack of well coordinated service delivery processes and
of a lack of well coordinated information management led to– a huge avoidable administrative burden and related costs for
• the companies• the citizens• the actors in the social sector
– service delivery that didn’t meet the expectations of the companies and the citizens
– suboptimal effectiveness of the social protection– higher possibilities of fraud– suboptimal support of the social policy
![Page 5: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
5Frank Robben
Expectations of citizens and companies• integrated services
– attuned to their concrete situation, and personalized when possible
– delivered at the occasion of events that occur during their life cycle (birth, going to school, starting to work, move, illness, retirement, decease, starting up a company, …)
– across government levels, public services and private bodies
• attuned to their own processes• with minimal costs and minimal administrative burden• if possible, granted automatically• well performing and user-friendly• reliable, secure and permanently available• accessible via a channel chosen by the user (direct contact, phone,
electronic devices, …)• sufficient privacy protection
![Page 6: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
6Frank Robben
The solution• a network between all 2,000 social sector actors with a secure
connection to the internet, the federal MAN, regional extranets, extranets between local authorities and the Belgian interbanking network
• a unique identification key– for every citizen, electronically readable from an electronic social
security card and an electronic identity card
– for every company
• 190 electronic services for mutual information exchange amongst actors in the social sector, defined after process optimization– nearly all direct or indirect (via citizens or companies) paper-based
information exchange between actors in the social sector has been abolished
– in 2006 511 million electronic messages were exchanged amongst actors in the social sector, which saved as many paper exchanges

Derived rights in tax affairs
• a number of people are entitled to an increased refund of the costs for medical care
• moreover, a number of municipalities and provinces grant these persons reductions or even exemptions of the taxes

14Frank Robben
The solution• 41 electronic services for employers, either based on the electronic
exchange of structured messages or via an integrated portal site– 50 social security declaration forms for employers have been abolished
– in the remaining 30 (electronic) declaration forms the number of headings has on average been reduced to a third of the previous number
– declarations are limited to 3 events• immediate declaration of recruitment and discharge (only electronically)
• quarterly declaration of salary and working time (only electronically)
• occurence of a social risk (electronically or on paper)
– in 2006 17.9 million electronic declarations were made by all 220,000 employers, 98 % of which from application to application
– according to a study of the Belgian Planning Bureau, rationalization of the information exchange processes between the employers and the social sector implies an annual saving of administrative costs of more than 1 billion € a year for the companies

17Frank Robben
Declaration of social risks• types of social risks
– child allowances– incapacity for work ((labour) accident, (occupational) disease,
…)– unemployment– old age pension
• 3 possible moments of declaration– start of the social risk– recurrence or continuation of the social risk– end of the social risk
• structure of the declaration– identification data– if necessary, salary and working time data not yet declared via a
quarterly declaration (mini-declaration)– specific data concerning the social risk
![Page 18: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18Frank Robben
The solution• electronic services for citizens
– maximal automatic granting of services based on electronic information exchange between actors in the social sector
– 4 electronic services via an integrated portal• 2 services to apply for social benefits• 2 services for consultation of social benefits
– about 30 new electronic services are foreseen
• an integrated portal site containing– electronic transactions for citizens and employers– information about the entire social security system– harmonized instructions and information model relating to all
electronic transactions– a personal page for each citizen and each company
• an integrated multimodal contact centre supported by a customer relationship management tool
![Page 19: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19Frank Robben
The solution• coordination by the Crossroads Bank for Social Security
– board of directors consists of representatives of the companies, the citizens and the actors in the social sector
– mission• definition of the vision and the strategy on E-government in the social sector
and of the common principles related to information management• definition, implementation and management of an interoperability framework• secure messaging of several types of information (structured data,
documents, images, metadata, …) with business logic and orchestration support
• coordination of business process reengineering• stimulation of service oriented applications• management of a reference directory for
– preventive control on the legitimacy of the information exchange– organisation of the routing of information– automatic communication of changes of information
![Page 20: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20Frank Robben
The solution• reference directory
– directory of available services/information• which information/services are available at any institution depending on the
capacity in which a person/company is registered at each institution
– directory of authorized users and applications• list of users and applications• definition of authentication means and rules• definition of authorization profiles: which kind of information/service can be
accessed, in what situation and for what period of time depending on in which capacity the person/company is registered with the actor that accesses the information/service
– directory of data subjects• which persons/companies have personal files in which institutions for which
periods of time, and in which capacity they are registered
– subscription table• which users/applications want to automatically receive what services in
which situations for which persons/companies in which capacity

22Frank Robben
Basic principles
• information modelling
• unique collection of re-use of information
• management of information
• electronic exchange of information
• protection of information
![Page 23: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23Frank Robben
Information modelling
• information is being modelled in such a way that the model fits in as closely as possible with the real world
• information modelling takes as much account as possible of anticipated use of information
• the information model can be flexibly extended or adapted when the real world or the use of the information changes
![Page 24: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24Frank Robben
Unique collection and re-use of information• information is only collected for well-defined purposes
and is targeted to meet the requirements of these purposes
• all information is collected once, from as near to the authentic source as possible
• information is collected according to the information model and following uniform guidelines
• with the possibility of quality control by the supplier before the transmission of the information
• the collected information is validated once according to established task sharing criteria, by the institution that is most entitled to it or by the institution which has the greatest interest in correctly validating it
• it is then shared and re-used by authorized users
![Page 25: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25Frank Robben
Management of information• a task sharing model is established indicating which
institution stores which information as an authentic source, manages the information and maintains it at the disposal of the authorized users
• information is stored according to the information model• information can be flexibly assembled according to ever
changing legal concepts• every institution has to report probable errors of
information to the institution that is designated to validate the information
![Page 26: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26Frank Robben
Management of information• every institution that has to validate information
according to the agreed task sharing model, has to examine the reported probable errors, to correct them when necessary and to communicate the correct information to every known interested institution
• information is only retained and managed as long as there exists a business need, a legislative or policy requirement, or, preferably anonimized or encoded, when it has historical or archival importance
![Page 27: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27Frank Robben
Electronic exchange of information• once collected and validated, information is stored,
managed and exchanged electronically to avoid transcribing and re-entering it manually
• electronic information exchange can be initiated by– the institution that disposes of information– the institution that needs information– the institution that manages the interoperability framework
(CBSS as service integrator)
• electronic information exchanges take place on the base of a functional and technical interoperability framework that evolves permanently but gradually according to open market standards, and is independent from the methods of information exchange
![Page 28: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28Frank Robben
Electronic exchange of information• available information is used for
– the automatic granting of benefits– prefilling when collecting information– information delivery to the interested parties
![Page 29: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29Frank Robben
Protection of information• security, integrity and confidentiality of government
information is ensured by integrating ICT measures with structural, organizational, physical, personnel screening and other security measures according to agreed policies
• personal information is only used for purposes compatible with the purposes of the collection of the information
• personal information is only accessible to authorized institutions and users according to business needs, legislative or policy requirements
• the access authorization to personal information is granted by an independent institution, designated by Parliament, after having checked whether the access conditions are met
• the access authorizations are public
![Page 30: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30Frank Robben
Protection of information• every actual electronic exchange of personal information
is preventively checked on compliance with the existing access authorizations by an independent institution managing the interoperability framework
• every actual electronic exchange of personal information is logged, to be able to trace possible abuse afterwards
• every time information is used to take a decision, the information used is communicated to the person concerned together with the decision
• every person has right to access and correct his/her own personal data
![Page 31: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31Frank Robben
Advantages• gains in efficiency
– in terms of cost: services are delivered at a lower total cost due to• a unique information collection using a common information model and
administrative instructions• a lesser need to re-encoding of information by stimulating electronic information
exchange• a drastic reduction of the number of contacts between actors in the social sector
on the one hand and companies or citizens on the other• functional task sharing concerning information management, information
validation and application development
– in terms of quantity: more services are delivered• services are available at any time, from anywhere and from several devices• services are delivered in an integrated way according to the logic of the
customer
– in terms of speed: the services are delivered in less time• benefits can be allocated quicker because information is available faster• waiting and travel time is reduced• companies and citizens can directly interact with the competent actors in the
social sector with real time feedback
![Page 32: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32Frank Robben
Advantages• gains in effectiveness: better social protection
– in terms of quality: same services at same total cost in same time, but to a higher quality standard
– in terms of type of services: new types of services, e.g.• push system: automated granting of benefits• active search of non-take-up using datawarehousing techniques• controlled management of own personal information• personalized simulation environments
• better support of social policy
• more efficient combating of fraud
![Page 33: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33Frank Robben
Critical success factors• common vision on electronic service delivery amongst all
actors• support of and access to policymakers at the highest
level• trust of all stakeholders• electronic service delivery as a structural reform process
– process re-engineering within and across actors– back-office integration for unique information collection, re-use of
information and automatic granting of services– integrated and personalized front-office service delivery
• focus on more efficient and effective service delivery, and on cost control
![Page 34: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34Frank Robben
Critical success factors• appropriate balance between efficiency on the one hand
and privacy and security on the other• respect for legal allocation of competences between
actors• co-operation between all actors concerned based on
distribution of tasks rather than centralization of tasks• quick wins combined with long term vision• technical and semantic interoperability• legal framework• adaptability to an ever changing societal and legal
environment• creation of an institution that stimulates and co-ordinates
![Page 35: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35Frank Robben
Critical success factors• need for radical cultural change within government, e.g.
– from hierarchy to participation and team work– meeting the needs of the customer, not the government– empowering rather than serving– rewarding entrepreneurship within government– ex post evaluation on output, not ex ante control of every input
![Page 36: A vision on electronic cooperation in the Belgian health care sector, based on the experience in the social sector, and the role of the Be-Health platform](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649d265503460f949fcad0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

39Frank Robben
Useful building blocks• general use of a patient identification number• minimal content of health care files that can be
communicated electronically• permanent availability and accessibility of the minimal
electronically communicable content of health care files• standardized content, format and methods for the
exchange of electronic care prescriptions• sectoral committee of the Commission for the protection
of privacy (CPP)• user and access management

40Frank Robben
Useful building blocks• secured platform for the electronic exchange of
information about patients, provided care and the results of the provided care, and for the exchange of electronic care prescriptions between all parties associated with the health care delivery system– network– basic services– exchange standards– access channels for the users– independent organization for the management of the exchange
platform

– to avoid unnecessary centralization
– to avoid unnecessary threats to the protection of the privacy
– to avoid multiple similar controls and registration of loggings
• method: division of tasks between the entities associated with the electronic service, including clear agreements on– who is in charge of which authentications, verifications and controls by
which means and who is responsible for this
– how the results of the authentications, verifications and controls can be safely exchanged electronically between the entities concerned
– who keeps which loggings
– how to ensure that in case of an investigation, on one’s own initiative or in response to a complaint, a complete tracing can be realized in order to know which natural person has used which service or transaction concerning which citizen or company, when, through which channel and for which purposes

• authentication of the identity of the person who writes the prescription• verification of the status of the person who writes the prescription • system to ensure that the prescription cannot be modified unnoticeably after
applying the methods to guarantee the integrity and the electronic time stamping
• authentication of the identity, verification of the status of the person who has written the prescription, guaranteeing the integrity and electronic date for each individual prescription
• the time necessary for authenticating the identity, verifying the status and guaranteeing the integrity must not exceed ¼ of a second per prescription
• a person that writes prescriptions must be able to switch between prescription places without overhead
• local validation that the prescription has not been modified after applying the methods to guarantee the integrity and the electronic time stamping

Electronic care prescription in health care institutions
• analysis of required functionalities– functionalities during the processing of the prescription
• the electronic time stamping must be requested immediately after applying the method to guarantee the integrity and must be placed within 30 seconds after the request
– organizational requirements• velocity of replacing an authentication tool when useless• traceability of who has done which processing at which moment for the
creation of a prescription (must be kept during a certain period)• traceability of the content and of the exact date and time of each request and
processing of a request to revoke an authentication tool
– point of special interest• avoid that care institutions have to work with different systems for the
authentication of the identity, the verification of the status, the guarantee of the integrity of documents, electronic time stamping, … for different types of processes

Electronic care prescription in health care institutions
• possible solution– the authentication of the identity and the verification of the status
are performed on the local level using at least a user-id, a password [and something one possesses], on condition that each person that writes prescriptions signs a document that stipulates that he is responsible for everything that is authenticated in terms of identity and status through his user id, his password [and the possessed element]
– the prescriptions are hashed– the hashing results (not the content of the prescription itself !)
receive an electronic time stamp from Be-Health– clear organizational rules concerning the management of user-
id’s, passwords [and the possessed elements], based on the results of Elodis, are incorporated in an royal decree in implementation of article 21 of the royal decree n° 78
– a regulation is being elaborated that indicates under which conditions postscriptions are possible
