Electronic Submission of Medical Documentation (esMD)Digital Identity and Author of Record Sub-Workgroups September 19, 2012
Meeting Etiquette • Please announce your name each time prior to making comments or suggestions during the call • Remember: If you are not speaking keep your phone on mute • Do not put your phone on hold – if you need to take a call, hang up and dial in again when finished with your other call • Hold = Elevator Music = very frustrated speakers and participants • This meeting, like all of our meetings, is being recorded • Another reason to keep your phone on mute when not speaking! • Feel free to use the “Chat” or “Q&A” feature for questions or comments From S&I Framework to Participants: Hi everyone: remember to keep your phone on mute NOTE: This meeting is being recorded and will be posted on the esMD Wiki page after the meeting
Announcements • Schedule this week:
September 2012 Proposed Schedule AoR L1 UC E2E Review AoR L1 UC E2E Review AoR L1 UC Consensus AoR L1 UC Consensus
AoR L1 UC Consensus Voting Results • 9 Yes Votes • 2 Abstain Votes
Consensus Voting Round Robin for Committed Members • Yes • A Yes vote does not necessarily mean that the deliverable is the ideal one from the perspective of the Initiative Member, but that it is better to move forward than to block the deliverable • Yes with comments • If a Consensus Process attracts significant comments (through Yes with comment votes), it is expected that the comments be addressed in a future revision of the deliverable. • Formal Objection- with comments • Indicating a path to address the objection in a way that meets the known concerns of other members of the Community of Interest. "Formal Objection" vote without such comments will be considered Abstain votes. • Formal Objection • Should a Consensus Process attract even one "Formal Objection" vote with comments from an Initiative Member, the deliverable must be revised to address the "Formal Objection" vote (unless an exceptional process is declared). • Abstain (decline to vote) 7
esMD Initiative Overview Registration Authority Certificate Authority Provider Directories Gateway Provider Entity Payer Entity esMD UC 1: Provider Registration Contractors / Intermediaries Agent esMD UC 2: Secure eMDR Transmission Provider (Individual or Organization) Payer Payer Internal System esMD AoR Level 1 Digital Identities Bundle Signatures
AoR -- Phased Scope of Work Level 1 – Current Focus • Focus is on signing a bundle of documents prior to transmission to satisfy an eMDR • Define requirements for esMD UC 1 and UC 2 Signature Artifacts • May assist with EHR Certification criteria in the future • Digital signature on aggregated documents (bundle) Level 2 - TBD Digital signature on an individual document • Focus is on signing an individual document prior to sending or at the point of creation by providers • Will inform EHR Certification criteria for signatures on patient documentation Level 3 - TBD • Digital signature to allow traceability of individual contributions to a document • Focus is on signing documents and individual contributions at the point of creation by providers • Will inform EHR Certification criteria for one or multiple signatures on patient documentation
Topics for Digital Identities and AoR Workgroup Effort • Identity proofing • Digital identity management • Encryption • Digital signatures and artifacts • Delegation of Rights • Author of Record
Definitions • Identity (NIST) A set of attributes that uniquely describe a person within a given context. Identity (Proposed) A set of attributes that uniquely describe a person or legal entity within a given context. • Identity Proofing (NIST) The process by which a CSP and a Registration Authority (RA) collect and verify information about a person for the purpose of issuing credentials to that person. Identity Proofing (Proposed) The process by which a CSP and a Registration Authority (RA) collect and verify information about a person or legal entity for the purpose of issuing credentials to that person or legal entity.
Definitions • Digital Signature (NIST) • The result of a cryptographic transformation of data that, when properly implemented, provides a mechanism for verifying origin authentication, data integrity and signatory non-repudiation. • Data Integrity (NIST) • Data integrity is a property whereby data has not been altered in an unauthorized manner since it was created, transmitted or stored. Alteration includes the insertion, deletion and substitution of data. • Non-repudiation (NIST) • Non-repudiation is a service that is used to provide assurance of the integrity and origin of data in such a way that the integrity and origin can be verified by a third party. This service prevents an entity from successfully denying involvement in a previous action. • Delegation of Rights • The ability to delegate rights or authority to another to act in a specific capacity on behalf of the grantor of the right. Must include the digital identity of the grantor, the digital identity of the grantee, the rights granted, duration of grant in a format that is usable in transaction and AoR signature events and is verifiable by a third party for non-repudiation purposes.
esMD Requirements * Required if the action of the responsible party is being represented by a third party
Scope for AoR (L1) Out of Scope Interactions between: • Payer and Payer Contractors • Provider and Agent • Payer or Payer Contractor and Gateway Transaction level encryption Document level signatures and individual contribution signatures Defining delegation of rights within and between Providers and other authors • In Scope • Identify Proofing as part of Non-Repudiation of Actor Identity • Digital Credential Management required for Non-Repudiation Actions (Signingand Delegation), Data Integrity and Encryption • Digital Signatures and Signature Artifacts for Identity and Non-Repudiation • Digital Credentials and Artifacts for Non-Repudiation of Delegation as required by UC1 and AoR L1 • Data Integrity requirement actions and artifacts • Encryption of PHI requirements • Interactions with External Provider Directories
User Story / Workflow • Overall User Story Components • All Actors obtain and maintain a non-repudiation digital identity • Provider registers for esMD (see UC1)* • Payer requests documentation (see UC2)* • Provider submits digitally signed document (bundle) to address request by payer • Payer validates the digital credentials, signature artifacts and, where appropriate, delegation of rights *User Stories for UC 1 and 2 have already been defined. Workgroup will help define bullets 1) and 4)
