EU-US eHealth Collaborative Initiative Vision (DRAFT) The vision and roadmap set the framework for progress • Vision • “To support an innovative collaborative community of public- and private-sector entities working toward the shared objective of developing, deploying, and using eHealth science and technology to empower individuals, support care, improve clinical outcomes, enhance patient safety and improve the health of populations.”
Workforce Development Vision (DRAFT) The Workforce Development work group aims to develop a skilled Health IT workforce in the EU and US • Goal of the Workforce Development Work Group: • “To achieve a robust supply of health professionals highly proficient in the use of health IT, assuring healthcare, public health and allied professional work forces have the technology skills needed to enhance their professional experience and performance with eHealth/Health IT”
Workforce Development Roadmap (DRAFT) • Roadmap • From the Memorandum of Understanding, a roadmap was created to help guide the work of the Workforce Development Work Group • The Roadmap contains these major tasks: • Identify Project Champions • Complete analysis of competencies required by the diverse healthcare and eHealth/IT workforce • Identify and map curricula that addresses the competencies identified in the US and EU • Explore new models of education/employer collaboration • Pilot innovative ways to develop a healthcare IT workforce • These tasks were broken down into the following key milestones:

Progress to Date (DRAFT) • To date, we have accomplished the following tasks and subtasks: • Developed classification schema for HIT areas, roles, competencies and levels • Classified competencies, with comprehensive mapping across 14 silos • Categorized healthcare roles into domains, levels and buckets • Created proof of concept competency mapping, including developing competencies, assigning levels, codifying and integrating Bloom’s taxonomy for over 250 Direct Patient Care – Clinical competencies • Begun an HIT curriculum requirement and gap analysis, identifying and mapping both formal and informal educational resources and needs
Current Work Streams (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Roles, Silos, Domains, Subdomains/Buckets, Levels and Competency Areas • Roles: We mapped a variety of roles in acute care, across the European Union and the United States.
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Silos • Silos: We have 14 derivative areas for competencies and curricula, including AHIMA-AMIA, IMIA, US Department of Labor, National Health Service UK (NHS-UK), Cuyahoga Community College, Texas HIT, HIMSS worldwide, and the European e-Competency Framework and others AHIMA/AMIA IMIA DOL NHS-UK Additional UK Resources Cuyahoga CC Scottish Government Cuyahoga CC Texas HIT HealthIT.gov European e-Competence Framework NOS-UK Created Competencies HIMSS worldwide
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • From each silo, hundreds of competencies were reviewed, categorized into domains, and finalized after subject matter expert review and group consensus Identify classification and systematic health-related terminologies for coding and information retrieval. Differentiate data versus information AHIMA/AMIA Understand terminologies used in electronic health records and health information technology pertinent to your role (EB02) Describe the differences between health data and health information (EB01)
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Domains • Domains: We developed 5 domains of HIT settings, including Direct Patient Care, Administration/Finance/Law/ Management, Engineering/Information Systems, Informatics and Research
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Subdomains/Buckets • Buckets: We then broke the domains down, dividing them into subdomains such as Professional/Operational/Managerial; clinical/non-clinical; revenue/compliance, etc. Clinical/ Non-Clinical Professional/ Operational/ Management
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Subdomains/Buckets • Buckets: We broke the domains down, dividing them into subdomains such as Professional/Operational/Managerial; clinical/non-clinical; and revenue/compliance. From these subdomains, we grouped the roles and competency relationships down into buckets.

Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) Competency Levels • Classification Schema: Levels • Levels: We classified the competencies into five levels: Baseline, Basic, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert. To assist us in this effort, we incorporated Bloom’s taxonomy to help determine the appropriate level for a competency.
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Levels • After deciding the competency levels, we applied Bloom’s taxonomy to the competencies, with each level corresponding to a Bloom’s level Competency Level Bloom’s Taxonomy
Current Work Streams (cont’d) (DRAFT) • Classification Schema: Competency Areas • Competency Areas: We broke the competencies down into 20 major areas of concentration
