HL7 Clinical Document Architecture • Health Story Specs are Based on HL7 CDA • Normative HL7 standard since 2000 • Widely implemented • Provides a gentle on-ramp to information exchange • Providesmechanism for inserting evidence-based medicine directly into the process of care • Top down strategy lets you implement once and reuse many times for new scenarios
Why CDA? • Radiology results are a key tool in providing diagnosis • Results need to be: • concise • consistent • precipitate alerts before the report is distributed • Radiology Information System • rich in data • eliminates redundancy • streamlines workflow • CDA benefits • standard for clinical communication • foundation for structuring data
Meaningful Use Stage 2 ONC Standards and Interoperability Framework has indicated intent to recommend CDA and Health Story specifications in meaningful use Stage 2 requirements for clinical documentation
Meaningful Use ≈ Data Reuse patient care quality reporting clinical decision support outcomes analysis research billing/claims adjudication
