  2. Vocabulary Test

  3. Motivation for HIE Clinicians have incomplete knowledge of their patients • Relevant patient data not available in 81% of ambulatory visits • 18% of medical errors that lead to ADEs due to missing patient information. Medicare patients see an average of 5.6 different providers each year= 5.6 silos of data

  4. “CARFAX Vehicle History Reports™ are available on all used cars and light trucks model year 1981 or later…” “CARFAX receives information from more than 20,000 data sources including every U.S. and Canadian provincial motor vehicle agency plus many auto auctions, fire and police departments, collision repair facilities, fleet management and rental agencies, and more…”

  5. Healthcare’s Unique Challenges Only industry that is truly ‘life and death’ Constantly changing key factors of; Patient needs Treatment choices Patient mobility Community health environment/challenges An industry where accuracy, flexibility and dynamic (live) information is vital An industry that is inefficient due to variability of care and cost.

  6. Why is government involved? • Reducing costs & Increasing quality of healthcare is an economic issue • Ability to determine health status and track health outcomes is essential to effective public policy • Government is a purchaser, a payer and a provider • Government can be a neutral convener and arbiter of public good

  7. “In Michigan, we will help our health care industry stop depending on your memory and their paper records as databanks. We are going to use technology to vastly improve the system.” - Governor Granholm, 2006 State of the State Address

  8. MiHIN: The History • 2005 – Michigan kicks off a multi stakeholder, all inclusive approach to completing a statewide HIE roadmap • 2006 – The Michigan’s HIE roadmap - MiHIN Conduit to Care - is completed and released • 2006 – Legislation is signed to create the Michigan HIT Commission • 2007 & 2008 – Michigan invests $10 million in regional HIE planning and implementation • 2009 – “ARRA” changed the HIT and HIE world

  17. Technical Architecture Architecture funded by State HIE Cooperative Agreement

  18. Technical Architecture • Benefits • Builds upon sub-state HIEs • “Skinny” set of technologies that can scale up over time • Connects public health reporting and surveillance • Functionality provides value at a low cost • “Behind the scenes” service that allows providers to have multiple HIE choices

  19. Governance • Guiding Principles • Multi-stakeholder collaboration is needed to implement achievable and measurable initiatives • The MiHIN will leverage existing and planned information technology • Those that benefit should participate in paying the cost • Adoption and use of the MiHIN is critical to success • The MiHIN will conform to applicable federal guidelines
