  3. IHE Australia Organisational Structure • IHE Australia Sponsors - Health Informatics Society of Australia (HISA) - Health Level Seven (HL7) Australia - Medical Software Industry Association (MSIA) - Royal Australasian College of Radiologists (RANZCR) • Some Australian Supporting IHE members - Health Information Management Association of Australia (HIMAA) - Royal Australian College of Surgeons (RACS) - Australian Diagnostic Imaging Association (ADIA)

  4. IHE Domains • Radiology • Cardiology • Radiation Oncology • IT Infrastructure • Patient Care Coordination • Patient Care devices • Laboratory, Pathology, Eye Care. • Pharmacy • Quality Research and Public Health

  5. IHE Value Proposition • IHE Solutions are Driven by Strategic Healthcare Lead Users that collaborate with Healthcare Vendors • IHE Solutions are Generic, Reusable and Interoperable based on Healthcare Standards: DICOM, HL7, RFC • IHE Solutions Optimize the Clinical Workflows • IHE Deployment process – Connectathon, Integration Statements and Users Success Stories information helps to refine the product “Business Case” • IHE Technical Framework specification describes the Global IHE solutions at a High Level for Planning & Marketing and in details for products Architects and Engineering development

  6. IHE Benefits • Clinical Users • Greater access to consistent information • Fewer errors, fewer tedious tasks • Buyers • Specify/purchase RFP’s integration capabilities easily and Freedom to acquire “Best of Breed” systems • IT Professionals • Faster, more predictable integration projects • Facilitate cooperation of competing vendors • Administrators • Increased throughput - Better scheduling • Reduce Cost

  7. IHE Profile Examples • (XDS/XDS-I) Cross-Enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging • Shares clinical documents, images, diagnostic reports and related information between healthcare enterprises • (PIX) Patient ID Cross-referencing • Cross-index patient IDs across multiple sites • (PDQ) Patient Demographics Query • Query and retrieve a patient’s demographic and visit information • (ATNA) Audit Trail and Node Authentication • Systems Authentication • Audit events management • (BPPC) Basic Patient Privacy and Consent • Patient privacy consents & enforcement

  8. IHE Problem Solution Process • User driven, Vendor led – A standardised process ISO TR28380 • Working with vendors, care providers and standards organizations, IHE: • Distills a clear description of the problem (Users) • Determines the right way to solve it using standards (Vendors)(IHE Profile) • Documents the solution in an implementation guide (IHE Technical Framework) • Coordinates cross-vendor testing of the solution (IHE Connectathon) • Demonstrates vendor implementations (IHE Showcase) Go see the rest of the profiles

  9. IHE Testing Process Users Testing Results Deploy Systems Testing Tools Sponsors:Project Management Team Develop Testing Tools Approves Test Logs Connectathon Product +IntegrationStatement Implement Profile Actors In-House Testing Vendors Sponsors: Exhibits Demonstration IHE Technical Framework (IHE Profile Specifications)

  10. What is a Connectathon? Cross-vendor, live, supervised, structured tests • All participating vendors’ products tested together in the same place/time • Experts from each vendor available for immediate problem resolution… fixes are done in minutes, not months!! • Each vendor tests with multiple trading partners (actual product to actual product) • Testing of real-world clinical scenarios using IHE Integration Profiles
