  1. Concept and Terminology in Denmark Arne Kverneland and Ulrich Andersen National Board of Health Denmark

  2. Different scenarios in IT in Denmark Effective use of IT, degree of ambition Optimistic: Common concept model Common terminology reusable information 4 3 Pessimistic: Different concept models Different terminology No reuse of data ? 2 1 0 1997 2002 2008 National Board of Health

  3. Analysis of IT in a major university hospital: Existing IT is ….. • An obstacle in the daily work • Complicating the key processes • Leads to redundant work • Is not coherent with external demands • booking • billing • reporting National Board of Health

  4. Starting point Professional needs….. • Supporting treatment and care • Ensure quality of data • Increase data re-usability • Easier communication • Make quality improvements possible National Board of Health

  5. Central starting point Patients need….. • Integrated care • seamless care between health care providers • shared care between healthcare providers • continuity of care within the organisation • multidisciplinary co-operation • Understandable information • Expectations/involvement (common goal) • Quality documentation National Board of Health

  7. Background 1994: MEDCOM EDIFACT-messages (35 mill messages per year) 1996-97: Action Plan for EHR – decentralized, pilots Conclusion of the evaluation: “There is need for standards and common terminology” 1999: National Strategy for Information Technology in Hospitals “EHRs shall become the core of IT systems in hospitals” 2003: National Strategy for Information Technology in the Health Care System (2003-2007) “Shared information is the foundation for seamless care and patient involvement” National Board of Health

  9. Major initiatives of the 2003-2007 strategy Move from messaging to shared information… • Development, test & implementation of EHRs • based on The National Basic Conceptual Model for EHR ”The Clinical Processes and its elements” • Common Terminology & Classifications • International & National classification (ICD, NCSP, ICPC, ICF, NANDA, IUPAC…) • SNOMED CT as a referenceterminology National Board of Health

  15. Why the SNOMED Terminology? High cost and delays to develop alternative • Estimated cost to create an alternative: • 4-5 mill. euro to develop a terminology • ½-1 mill. euro per year to maintain and support • End-user costs increase as software vendors must support two competing terminology standards • And development would take 5-10 years, delaying national EHR adoption National Board of Health

  16. SNOMED CT • WHO may play a significant role • Terminology on the e-health agenda • SNOMED Standards Development Organisation [SDO] • All components needed for international conformance, interoperability & maintenance of the principles • National Extensions • All components needed for national, but not international conformance, interoperability & maintenance of the principles National Board of Health

  17. The Danish EHR-project • Modelling and documenting (NBH): • Information model (concepts and relations) • Data logic model (UML notation) • Communication model (XML schemes) • Health Terminologi • Translation of Snomed CT • Establishing National subsets • Mapping to existing classifications • Clinical guidelines • Textual description • Mapping to model & terminology • Building EHR’s (Regions, HC-Copenhagen) • Functonality • Performance • Integration Link: www.sst.dk/Gepj National Board of Health
