  2. Agenda • Introduction • History and status • Example on our research • IEEE workshop input

  3. Denmark (2006) 14 counties 270 local governments 5.430.000 people 43.560 km2 No. 7

  4. Danish EHR History • 1967 System: Control data 3300 • “in a few years there will be no paper journals…..the data will be digital and assembled in a fraction of a second” • First national strategy 1996-2000 • 13 regional projects and 1 EHR observatory • Denmark wants a EHR • A lot of technical, system, bits and byte talk • Politics

  5. Danish EHR History • Second national strategy 2000-2002 • Focus of EHR in the hospital sector • Focus on data standard • What did we see and hear then?

  9. Danish EHR History • Third national strategy 2003-2007 • Focus on EHR in the primary health sector • and continuous and interconnected healthcare system • “.. seamless data exchange among parties in • the health care service is of vital importance”.

  10. Strategy 2003-2007 vision • “The pivotal point is the patient’s influence on his own treatment and his involvement in self-care. “ “.. citizen must be able to receive and to give relevant and personally customized information.” http://www.sst.dk/publ/Publ2004/National_IT_strategy.pdf pp 17

Concepts / terminology(20) B-EHRsystems(1,2) Integration Platform(8) NQR QI Pilot DGMA B-EHR pilots(3-6) IQR(17) Classifications(22,23) NHCR(14) NPI (15) Pilot NHCR(14) Legal-safetyclarification (7) ”New-DRG” Basic EHRstandard ConvertionNew -> Old (14) XML-EPJmessages(25) HealthCare-portal(18) Old-DRGaccounting Medication-messagesin XML (4) SDN oninternet(26) Primary EHR(21) PKI forHealth professionals (24) GP-systems Medicatio-profile (16) User-management Initiatives of the strategy

  12. Political vision • Relevant and personally customized information. • All Danes have an E-box • Digital signature • 720.000 issued since 2003 • Valid 2 years • I have 3 • 20% of Danes (maybe only 5 – 10 %) • Maybe 1-2% use for HI

  13. Structured EHR Structured EHR with SUP Structured EHR with LHR GEPJ GEPJ compatible GEPJ-light GEPJ-ultra....? Extended Green system Mulitsectional EHR Cross-sectional EHR Multisectional with health codes EHR with SUP EHR with instructions EHR with ...... Danish EHR 2005-2006 • More than 28% of ”Hospital beds” • 50 % of the hospitals has a EHR system • (EHR evaluation report 2005) • 99 % of general practitioner use IT

  14. The regional reform in Denmark 1.1.2007 From 14 counties to 5 regions From 270 to 98 local governments http://www.kl.dk/372656/

  15. Full stop • The Danish health minister (Lars Løkke Rasmussen) make a full stop. • He wants a central control of the EHR implementation • One EHR solution for the healthcare sector • High ambitions • Bad result • Who is to blame?

  16. Danish focus • Diabetes patients • Dermatology • Wound healing topics • E-mail consultation with general practitioner • Medicine profile (sundhed.dk) • Pharmacists • Donor register • One EHR solution

  17. IEEE 2407 vision • Healthcare Information for all by 2015 • Provide a standard of • Consumer tools to stay healthy • Consumer tools to improve health • Improve healthcare information in developing countries

  18. Scientific questions • What do we mean by “All”? • How do we stay healthy? • What improves our health? • How do we communicate with potential consumers of health informatics?

  19. Who do we mean by “All”? • Above 60 years old • Vast population • ~1.2 mill (21%). 1 • Heterogeneous • Income, health, social, mobility. 2 • Gets ill • 42% of all admissions. 3 1: Population statistics January 2006 2: Audun-Olsen, 2001:47 3: Danish statistics, SYG1A and UD1 2004-2006

  20. Our research The study • cross-sectional survey • 2000 Danes over 60 years of age • Postal questionnaire made for the purpose. • 54% responded

  21. Do the elderly use the internet for information about health and disease? • ~45% used the internet • ~20% searched for health information • ~3% searched for health information before consultation with a doctor • Age is a factor • Gender is not a factor • Attitude towards technology is a factor • Economy? • Education level? • State of health?

  22. ICT in developing country's

  23. No smoking 3 days 12 hours 27 minutes Informatics to the test

  24. Literacy level Who can we give tools of health informatics? Example: information on diabetes (thought experiment)

  25. IEEE 2407 working group • Should discuss and define: • Potential and relevant consumers • Level of information complexity • Personalized informatics • Right information • to the right person • at the right time • Usability of distribution technology • Enactment theory
