  2. Interoperability • Knowing What It Is • Knowing Why It’s Important • Knowing What to Do

  3. Interoperability • Ability of two or more systems or components to exchange information and to use the information that has been exchanged. (Source IEEE) • In healthcare, interoperabilityis the ability of different information technology systems and software applications to communicate, to exchange data accurately, effectively, and consistently, and to use the information that has been exchanged.” (Source NAHIT)

  10. Why an Interoperability Strategy? • Key customer and market requirement • Patient Safety • Operational Efficiency • Essential to achieving vision • Care Without Boundaries • Healthcare Transformation and Outcome Goals • Medical Advancement • Improves productivity and efficiency • Single Set of Standards • Common Framework

  12. Considerations • Semantic Interoperability • A large part of our customer world does not have standards, or well-defined implementations • Makes reusability difficult • Need to stop proliferating interfaces • Large vendors encourage and promote standards • Decreases costs of getting to markets • Lowers Maintenance costs • Absorbs the costs when things don’t go well

  13. Siemens Strategy Siemens provides solutions that help improve patient safety and enhance the quality and efficiency of healthcare by enabling the efficient, private, and secure exchange of information across the continuum of care. Care without boundaries!

  14. Siemens Interoperability Strategy • Leadership and Advocacy - Shape and drive the future of interoperability by serving as an industry leader and an active participant in the identification, development, utilization and implementation of key standards required for interoperability • Information Availability - Ensure information is accessible, to all who need it, to perform all of their clinical and administrative workflows. Interoperate across vendor systems.

  15. Siemens Interoperability Strategy • Smart Tooling - Minimize costs and maximize re-use by utilizing a flexible, extensible, and secure solution architecture designed for an ever-evolving healthcare market. • Supporting Services - Support our customers through the entire interoperability process by providing valuable design, networking, implementation, and consulting services.
