  2. Meeting Etiquette • Participants automatically enter the webinar in “listen only” mode. The organizer will then unmute all participants. We ask if you are not speaking to manually mute yourself • NOTE: VoIP participants have the ability to “Mute” themselves by clicking on the green microphone. However, if you would like to speak, only you can unmute yourself. • If you are dialing in using a telephone and NOT using the VoIP you MUST dial the audio pin in order for the organizer to unmute you – if you do not use the audio pin and just push # when prompted the Organizer cannot unmute you

  3. Meeting Etiquette CONTINUED • If you are calling from a telephone, please do not put your phone on hold. If you need to take a call, hang up and dial in again when you have completed your other call • This meeting is being recorded • Another reason to keep your phone or your VoIP on mute when not speaking • Use the “Chat” or “Question” feature for questions, comments and items you would like the moderator or other panelists to know.

  10. Upcoming Meetings

  11. Defining and Refining Our Work • Phase 1: • Proposed Approach • Define settings • Select one small setting such as pharmacy, primary care, etc. and then repeat process for other settings to help them run a bit smoother and perhaps faster. • Define skills needed to support these settings – as related to HealthIT • Map skills to professional roles/titles • Phase 2: Examine what exists to support these roles • Phase 3: Gap Analysis • Phase 4: Final Recommendations

  12. Establishing Definitions for Various Skill Levels • In order to move forward in defining the skills and competencies needed in the acute care setting, it is important that we first define the skill levels needed among acute care professionals. • Please take a moment to review the eight (8) levels of skills we have outlined for both clinical and non-clinical professionals and provide your feedback in the comment form located on the Wiki: http://wiki.siframework.org/Workforce+Development+Work+Group Click the spreadsheet to view the latest definitions

  13. EU UpdateJean Roberts, PhD, FBCS, CITP, CEng Director (Standards) UK Council for HI Professionals

  14. From a pragmatic perspective starting with a pc with real floppy discs to ‘do computing’ for 4 hospitals and a patient catchment that tripled during the holiday season, to running regional Patient Administration Systems and Manpower Planning programmes, through consultancy and academia including a PhD on how things had changed over 30 years. Involvement in global professional activity and European-wide research for that time .. and being a blunt Northerner from Yorkshire I feel able to be a critical friend and lay myself open to being corrected by those who know better than I what is going on ‘now’!

  15. European Perspective – Personally Speaking • AIM: improving workforce opportunities for joint working and increasing workforce mobility • TACTICS: • identify artifacts and initiatives that may contribute to transatlantic convergence and synergy • understand each other’s situations, ways of working and rationale • RISK: two entities divided by language, complexity and scale

  16. Today – ‘rain check’ to share concerns, resolve confusion; improve the way forward • Do we speak the same language? • Are we comparing like with like? • How many constituencies are we addressing • How is the workforce segmented? • Are we any nearer consensus or ‘understanding’? • My role – ‘intelligent vandal’ but with an informal mandate to stimulate progress; happy to be challenged, taking all comments on board for consideration

  17. Do we speak the same language? • Health Informatics, medical informatics, eHealth, biomedical informatics, clinical informatics, HIT, ICT in health, health technology workforce …… • Family physician, General practitioner • Certification, License or Accreditation • Academic education through qualifications (‘to know’) • Training by colleagues or third party (‘to do’) • Curriculum or continuing professional development • Fitness to practice … or … Fitness for purpose • Competence Skills Proficiency Knowledge

  18. By Scientific Domain • AMIA scope • Translational Bioinformatics • Clinical Research Informatics • Clinical Informatics • Consumer Health Informatics • Public Health Informatics • and extending into ‘Operational Informatics’ …

  19. UKCHIP by Function-many (emerging) Constituencies INFORMATICS(IT, IM and Information Science) HEALTH INFORMATICS COMMUNITY Knowledge Management ICT, IT, incl Computer Science / studies Portfolio Programme Project Management Information Management Managing HI Services Clinical Informatics + User Experience Health Records Management Education Training Development Research Note : ALL constituencies have public &private health, academic and commercial existences HEALTH www.ukchip.org

  20. How Are ‘WE’ Recognised? • License, membership, registration, regulation, certification, qualification, experience…. • Pay to play … or … formal entry requirement • Profession (protection of public through fitness to practice) • Learned Society (nurture body of knowledge) • Eclectic mix – (scientific) domain or function

  21. Complexity • Model of health care settings • public / private / mixed economy • Informatics delivered ‘in or for’ the care entity • Informatics competences necessary for all in health care roles (direct patient care, facility management, business monitoring, policy development, research, population analysis … ); it’s the level that varies; also pre-compliance • re EU and US ‘at the same stage’ –operational coverage of applications; demands on workforce

  22. Are we comparing like with like? • Chosen use case – Informatics in Acute setting • Director of ICT : leading team of 35 across a 2-hospital, 700 bed organisation …. Xxx in a shared service across a whole health organisation • To manage individual care efficaciously • To provide decision support for clinicians • Create (performance manage) efficient, effective and business-like workspace • To deploy resources where and how necessary • To enact well-informed health policy • To enable population health • To generate public trust and patient safety
