  2. Standards Developing OrganizationsLearning Objectives • Explain why standards related to networking and health information exchange are important in the current environment • Standards development • How standards are developed • Who develops them • How standards are accredited • How standards are selected • Understand different kinds of standards being developed and for what purpose

  3. Why Standards? • Necessary part of everyday life • Enables working together • Avoid chaos • Ubiquitous use

  7. Standards in Health Care • Aggregation of data among different sites of care • Health surveillance • Interoperability Tower of Babel – Brueghel 1563

  8. Interoperability Requires … • Connectivity infrastructure • Land lines • Cable • Wireless • Satellites • Other

  9. Interoperability Requires … • Governance infrastructure • Decisions made and enforced • Data • Standards • Knowledge • Process • Ideally proper decisions made by experts and supported by governments. • Interoperability is difficult without government involvement • Should be a partnership between public and private.

  10. Interoperability DATA TRANSPORT STORAGE APPLICATION Data is understood and reusable throughout the pathways. Profiles define what standards should be used across each of these components. EXCHANGE

  11. Comments About Standards • “What I like most about standards are that there are so many to choose from.” • “There are no standards.” • “We need standards, so let’s make some.”

  12. Government and Standards • Much of the activity for Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) involves standards

  13. Who Is Doing the Thinking About Standards? • The Office of the National Coordinator (ONC), supported by two committees: • Healthcare Information Technology Standards Committee (HITSC) • Healthcare Information Technology Policy Committee (HITPC) • Both are engaged in identifying appropriate standards for HIT

  14. How Are Standards Made? • Government • De facto standards (proprietary) created by a vendor • Ad hoc standards created by industry groups • Consensus standards created by open groups of interested stake holders

  15. Authority For Standards • Government – mandate • Single vendor – market share • Ad hoc – vendor agreement • Consensus • Balanced voting process among categories of participants • Requires over-whelming agreement • Vote by members or countries

  16. Who Creates Standards? • Unfortunately, there are many groups that create standards. The result is competing, conflicting and overlapping standards. The result is inconsistency in what standards are chosen, defeating the purpose of standards. • We refer to a group that creates standards as a Standards Developing Organization (SDO). Some SDOs are international, others are US only.

  17. International SDOs (1/2) • International Standards Organization (ISO) • ISO TC 215 – Healthcare Informatics • European Committee for Standardization (CEN) • Health Level 7 (HL7) International • Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) • Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) • Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC)

  18. International SDOs (2/2) • GS1 • International Healthcare Terminology SDO (IHTSDO) • Joint Initiative Council (JIC)

  19. Related Organizations • World Health Organization (WHO) • Object Management Group (OMG) • Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) • openEHR • World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) • Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) • Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)

  20. US HIT SDOs • ASTM • ASC X12N • National Council for Prescription Drug Programs (NCPDP) • MedBiquitous • American Dental Association • International/US • CDISC, DICOM, HL7, IEEE

  21. Related US Groups • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) • US Tag to ISO TC 215 • National Institute of Standards (NIST) • SDO Charter Organization (SCO) • National Quality Forum (NQF) • Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) • HIT Standards Committee (HITSC) • HIT Policy Committee (HITPC) • National Library of Medicine (NLM)
