Standards are critical but alone are not enough • Standards offer generality, ambiguity and alternatives • Standard Implementation Guides are focused on a single standard • Increasing complexity IHE provides a standard process for implementing multiple standards!
Connecting standards to care • Care providers work with vendors to coordinate the implementation of standards to meet their needs • Care providers identify the key interoperability problems they face • Drive industry to develop and make available standards-based solutions • Implementers follow common guidelines in purchasing and integrating systems that deliver these solutions IHE the most successful way to establish those “standards” for how to implement standards ?
What is Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise? • IHE provides a common framework for passing health information seamlessly: • within the healthcare enterprise • across multiple healthcare enterprises • for local, regional & nationalhealth information networks • IHE is sponsored by healthcare professional associations: 20 across 14 countries (8 in Europe) endorsed by well over 100 Health IT vendors. • IHE drives standards adoption to address specific clinical needs for interoperability
IHE Maturity and Acceptance • Delivery of ready-to-integrate products to benefit healthcare delivery entities of all sizes • In clinical use today in practices, enterprises • Regional and national projects leveraging IHE Integration Profiles (e.g. XDS): • In clinical use: Italy, Spain, UK (radiology) • In deployment: Austria, France, Norway, Canada, USA • IHE scope, today and expanding • radiology, cardiology, laboratory, oncology, eye care, devices • enterprise healthcare IT infrastructures • cross-enterprise healthcare IT infrastructures • Regional and national eHealth information networks
Testing at Connectathons IHE Demonstrations Develop technical specifications Products with IHE Identify available standards (e.g. HL7, DICOM, IETF, OASIS) Document Use Case Requirements Easy to integrate products Timely access to information Proven Standards Adoption Process
Reality, IHE, in action, …. IHE Connectathon Video
Achievements and Expanding Scope Over 100 vendors involved world-wide,5 Technical Frameworks 38 Integration Profiles, Testing at Connectathons Demonstrations at major conferences world-wide

What is IHE NOT? • Not a standard, although it leverages them • A vendor initiative, although they participate • Not a governmental certification authority, but IHE support them with compliance testing • Not simply a demonstration project • Demos are only one means to the end: Adoption • Backed up by documentation, tools, testing, and publication of Technical Frameworks and Product Integration Statements. IHE, proven for standardizing interoperability
