Clinical Research Under HL7 FHIR

Thursday, March 89:40 – 10:10 am

While healthcare is rapidly adapting to the digital era, the basic systems and processes for conducting clinical studies to assess new medical treatments are still largely based on the legacy of

a separate, paper-based, parallel process. These legacy systems collect data on Case Report Forms which are then transformed into a series of multiple datasets that bear little resemblance to how primary healthcare data is typically represented. Given the priorities of the FDA to incorporate real-world evidence from EHRs and to use electronic source documents to feed clinical trials, together with the industry pressure to reduce cost and time to market while improving care, and the opportunities now provided by HL7 FHIR APIs, it’s time for the research industry to adapt their processes to be more closely aligned with the world of digital healthcare. This presentation will examine the opportunities and recent progress on using HL7 FHIR to improve biopharmaceutical processes related to research and drug safety.

Wayne Kubick: Chief Technology Officer, HL7 International

Consolidated Clinical Document Architecture (C-CDA®)

Tuesday, March 6 Thursday, March 812:20 – 12:50 pm 1:40 – 2:10 pm

The C-CDA Implementation Guides has been around for over six years supporting interoperability between healthcare providers, payers and patients. It has progressed from Version 1 to Version 2.1 and is now implemented in every certified EHR in the United States. This presentation will highlight a number of projects and activities undertaken over the last year to improve the semantic interoperability of this standard.

Da Vinci: The Art of Value-Based Care

Tuesday, March 6 Thursday, March 89:40 – 10:10 am 3:00 – 3:30 pm

Come hear about the new HL7 FHIR-focused Da Vinci Project. This emerging private-sector led initiative responds to the need to establish a rapid multi-stakeholder process for addressing value-based care use cases that could be implemented on a national basis. The objective is to reduce the development and deployment of unique solutions between trading partners (e.g. a payer and provider). To promote interoperability across value based care stakeholders, the industry needs common:

• Standards (FHIR),• Implementation guides, and• Reference implementation to guide the rapid development and deployment of interoperable solutions on a national scale.

Da Vinci is assembling payers, providers, health IT vendors, HL7 and relevant government agencies to:

• Identify specific value-based care use cases that are amenable to national solutions using FHIR APIs.• Rapidly develop implementation guides and reference implementations, and field test them to validate readiness and efficacy.

Getting the Most Out of Your Data Using HL7 Clinical Decision Support Standards

Tuesday, March 64:20 – 4:50 pm

The use of health information technology (HIT) standards for encoding data, representing knowledge and delivering knowledge- based interventions can help facilitate implementation of clinical decision support (CDS). The presenters, who are co-chairs of the HL7 CDS Work Group, will survey the standards developed by

this group, including formalisms for accessing and representing clinical knowledge and data models to support these standards. The Arden Syntax is a standard language for representing medical knowledge in the form of medical logic modules (MLMs). Various patient data models will be reviewed, including the Virtual Medical Record (VMR), the Quality Improvement and Clinical Knowledge model (QUICK), and HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) as they pertain to clinical decision support. The Clinical Quality Language (CQL), which is a standard expression language for CDS and clinical quality measurement (CQM), also will be discussed, as will its relationship with the Healthcare Quality Measure Format (HQMF). Infobuttons are context-sensitive links from EMRs to knowledge resources. The HL7 FHIR Clinical Reasoning module (part of STU3) provides resources and operations to enable the representation, distribution, and evaluation of clinical knowledge artifacts such as clinical decision support rules, quality measures, order sets, and protocols. The latest versions of these standards will be described at a high level, showing how they can be used to implement CDS.

HL7 FHIR Bulk Data API

Tuesday, March 61:00 – 1:30 pm

Healthcare organizations have many reasons for bulk-data export, such as populating a data warehouse for operational or clinical analytics, leveraging population health and decision support tools from external vendors, and submitting data to regulatory agencies. Today, bulk export is often accomplished with proprietary pipelines, and data transfer operations frequently involve an engineering and field mapping project. Learn about an exciting new effort by SMART and HL7 to bring the HL7 FHIR standard to bear on these challenges of bulk-data export.

Next Generation Clinical Quality Measures – An Update from NCQA

Tuesday, March 62:20 – 2:50 pm

Current nationally reported clinical quality measures are often perceived as burdensome and costly to implement. Factors that contribute to this perception are the lack of alignment of measures across the healthcare system, inefficient data collection, and questions about the accuracy and reliability of the reported rates. NCQA plans to address these challenges through a multi-faceted approach that includes creating and distributing digital measure packages that are machine and human-readable using Clinical Quality Language (CQL) and Quality Data Model (QDM). During this briefing, NCQA’s Ben Hamlin and Anne Marie Smith will provide an overview of the initiatives underway.

The Clinical Information Interoperability Council: An Effort to Standardize Health Data Across All of Healthcare

Tuesday, March 61:40 – 2:10 pm

The HL7 Clinical Information Model Initiative (CIMI) is creating logical models to support interoperability using HL7 FHIR and other standards. However, CIMI can represent more than one logical model for a particular kind of data. For CIMI models to lead to truly interoperable systems there will need to be agreement among system developers about which models are preferred for interoperability.

The Clinical Information Interoperability Council (CIIC) was initiated in July of 2017 to create a forum for expert clinicians to establish a set of preferred models for interoperability. The goal is to create a free-for-use model repository of detailed clinical models that can be used by developers to create interoperable software. There are three important questions where clinical experts can provide guidance: 1) What data should be collected in a given clinical situation; 2) What is the preferred logical structure of the data; and 3) What are the computable definitions of clinical terms that are referenced in the models. This presentation will describe CIIC’s current activities, future plans, and how people can join and participate.

The HL7 CIMI Work Group: Creating Detailed Clinical Models to Support HL7 FHIR Interoperability

Tuesday, March 6 Wednesday, March 711:40 – 12:10 pm 9:40 – 10:10 am

The HL7 FHIR standard is widely regarded as the best approach for creating truly interoperable healthcare services. The structure of data within the payload of an HL7 FHIR service is defined by resource definitions. To get to very explicit definitions that support truly interoperable services, implementers are allowed to create HL7 FHIR profiles. It is important that developers have the freedom to create HL7 FHIR profiles so they can guarantee that their use cases can be satisfied. At the same time, this freedom poses a potential threat to interoperability. If everyone exercises their right to make profiles and the profiles they create are different, then there is no guarantee of interoperability. Cardiologists, gastroenterologists, pediatricians and obstetricians could all make different profiles for the same clinical findings, which could in turn be different from profiles produced for sharing public health data, which could be different still from profiles created for clinical quality reporting. The goal of the HL7 CIMI group is to create computable logical models that can be used to algorithmically produce HL7 FHIR profiles to support true interoperability of HL7 FHIR services.

What’s Next for Healthcare?

Wednesday, March 73:40 – 4:10 pm

Almost anything and everything that relates to healthcare is changing. Many of these changes relate to new and developing technologies, to new roles for the stakeholders involved in the delivery of healthcare, to the delivery of care in new settings, to changing and aging populations, and to shifts in responsibilities. Computers and robots will replace humans for many of the tasks, including decision making. New types of data will become a key part of decision making – behavioral, genomic, social and environmental will be added to clinical data. Population health will engage all sectors of the world around us – individuals, families, neighborhoods, communities, regions, countries and the global society. Patients will play an increasingly important role in taking responsibility of their own health and decision making. What impact will these changes have on standards development and interoperability?
