What is Interoperability?
5
Current State of Affairs
• Proprietary protocols or variations on “Standard” protocols
• Hard to integrate with collaborating systems– difficult, expensive, and requiring continued
monitoring
• Hard to integrate with competing vendors systems
– difficult, expensive and requiring continuing negotiation for cooperation
• Hard to change from one vendor to another
• Requires careful selection, contracting, collaboration
6
Interoperability
The Goal - Interoperability:The Goal - Interoperability:
The ability of two or more systems or components to exchange and use the information exchanged– Accurately, securely, verifiably– When and where needed
Adapted from HL7, www.hl7.org
– With minimal or no effort, “Plug and Play”With minimal or no effort, “Plug and Play”

What is IHE?
8
Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise International
The IHEThe IHE• An international umbrella organization sponsored
by RSNA, HIMSS and others…• Voluntary, non-profit, operating in public view
– Largely manufacturers, users, regulators
• An initiative by healthcare professionals and industry to improve the way computer systems share information. Systems developed in accordance with IHE Profiles communicate with one another better, are easier to implement, and enable care providers to use information more effectively.
9
What is IHE?
What does IHE Do?What does IHE Do?
• In a nutshell:– IHE identifies Real-World Interoperability problems– Brings people together to design, test and demonstrate
solutions using existing standards.

IHE International
11
What is the IHE?
Value PropositionsValue Propositions
• The IHE supports– Patient safety and reduced medical errors– Effective patient care with information when,
where needed– Efficient organizations, less tedious and
redundant work– Reduced cost
• Development is facilitated now, more in the future• Complexity of interface deployment, management• Regulatory compliance
– Best of breed for the organization– National mandate for electronic medical
records
12
Standards: Necessary…Not Sufficient
• Generally Standards are:– Foundational - to interoperability and
communications– Broad - varying interpretations and
implementations– Narrow - may not consider relationships between
standards domains– Plentiful - often redundant or disjointed– Focused - standards implementation guides
typically focus on a single standard
IHE provides a defined process for IHE provides a defined process for implementingimplementing standards standards
13
IHE: Connecting Standards to Care
• Coordinate implementation of standards to meet clinical and administrative needs– Clinicians and HIT professionals identify the key
interoperability problems they face– Providers and industry work together to develop
and make available standards-based solutions– Implementers are able to follow common
guidelines in purchasing and integrating effective systems
• IHE is not an SDOSDO, but does provide feedback
IHE: A forum for defining needs, implementing IHE: A forum for defining needs, implementing standards and processes for making it happenstandards and processes for making it happen

Two Foundational Domains
• IT Infrastructure Domain– Common foundational profiles
• ADT – including patient identity• CT – consistent time• Document transactions• Security
• Patient Care Coordination Domain– Coordination between specific domains
17
What are Profiles?
• A profile describes the application of a standard(s) to provide specific requirements to accomplish the communication requirements.– Provides an opportunity for users & vendors to
define requirements• Requirements for development • With Conformance Statements, for purchase
• Examples– HL7/DICOM – IHE Radiology– HL7/IEEE 11073 – Patient Care Devices
18
What is the Process?
• Define needs• Set priorities• Develop “profiles” with use cases• Recruit volunteers for each profile to be
developed• Develop the technical solutions• Demonstrate successful implementation
– Connectathons– Showcases
• Publish for public access, comment at various stages

PCD Domain Overview
IHE PCD CharterIHE PCD Charter
The Patient Care Devices Domain is concerned with Use Cases in which at least one actor is a regulated regulated patient care devicepatient care device. The PCD coordinates with other IHE clinical specialty based domains such as medical imaging and laboratory.
22
PCD Domain Overview
• Established in 2005 when the “charter” was awarded to the ACCE
• Jointly sponsored by ACCE and HIMSS as of July 1, 2006
• Technical Framework 2006-7 developed to communicate patient data (asynchronous)

PIV Benefits
PIV will reduce errorsreduce errors by eliminating keystroke errors and by increasing the use of automatic dosage checking facilitated by onboard drug libraries. In addition to the reduction of medication administration errors, this integration may also increase caregiver productivityincrease caregiver productivity and provide more contextual information regarding infusion data.

Why use IHE PCD profiles?
• Simplified standards-based integration of point-of-care device info & services
• Multi-vendor product integration testing @ Connectathons
• Visibility of products with care providers and peer technology organizations in Showcases
• Path to programs such as the U.S. National Health Information Network (NHIN)

Why Should You Care?
68
Why Should You Care?
Significance for Users/PurchasersSignificance for Users/Purchasers
• You Job (CE and IT)– CE and IT must collaborate on
selection, specification, installation, maintenance and support of these systems
– New knowledge and skills are required
69
Why Should You Care?
Significance for Users/PurchasersSignificance for Users/Purchasers
• Clinical implications– Patient safety– Enterprise wide access to the patient’s data– Quality of care– Ability to implement “best of breed”– Workflow improvements
• Financial implications– Rapid changes in technology increase risk– Interoperability reduces risk– Interoperability improves efficiency
70
What Can You Do?
71
What Can You Do?
• Plan, Evaluate, Purchase Conforming Devices
• In continuing discussions with vendors – at all levels– Push IHE, Interoperability
• Refer to lower deployment, maintenance costs– Encourage vendors’ active IHE participation
• Lower development, installation, support costs– Refer to profiles
• Leverage public and objective commitments
• In RFPs– Refer to profiles, Conformance Statements– Use Conformance Statements to “nail down” vendor’s
representations– Adopt very specific language
Raise the Bar!!Raise the Bar!!
72
What Can You Do?
