The Journey• Volunteering for the Vancouver 2010 Games

• Mobilization of the digital health community

• Expanding the team:

– Rio 2016 leadership

– IOC advisors

– Interoperability experts

• 2017: a year of study, consultation, and stakeholder discussions

The Olympic Opportunity

• Obligations of a host city bid

• Bid process and guidance

• Demands on local health care systems to support:

– Athletes

– Olympic “family”

– Volunteers

– Spectators

• IOC requirement: every 2 years, build a ”health system”, integrate it with the existing infrastructure, operate it with volunteers, dismantle it after 6 weeks, provide analytics, leave a legacy behind

What is OHI?• A Digital Health initiative, by the digital health industry

• Primary sponsors: HIMSS and SNOMED International

• A facilitated and managed specification and process to advance the seamless exchange and use of health information, using established international standards, to support an integrated medical services infrastructure at each Olympic Games

• OHI leverages multiple vendor solutions to connect pre-Games person-specific healthcare information with information generated at Games time by Olympic and host city service providers

• OHI leaves a legacy that promotes the globalization of digital health

Importance of Digital Health at the Olympics

• Today, digital health is considered an essential component of every

healthcare system worldwide

• Information flow following patient flow throughout the system –

leads to improvements in quality, reduction in medical errors, lower

cost of service

• Real-time information integrated with the patient’s health record

can facilitate active anti-doping surveillance and public health

monitoring

• Digital health relies on the collaboration of stakeholders from

across the health care ecosystem, supported by many different

systems from many different vendors

14

Myths and Truths• OHI seeks to create an environment that will enable healthcare information to flow alongside a

patient moving through the continuum of care at the Olympic Games (sports venues, polyclinics, tertiary referral hospitals, testing labs, pharmacies, etc.). The OHI team is a combination of healthcare interoperability experts and Olympic Games leaders, who are seeking only to “facilitate” the establishment of an interoperable health information ecosystem.

• We are not “selling” anything. There is no commercial “company” or “product” involved with OHI.

• OHI is not seeking any funding from Olympic stakeholders. Through the Foundation, we are 100% funded by the global digital health industry

• OHI looks to establish a digital health legacy for each of the cities hosting the Games, as well as participating countries.

• OHI does not seek to change anything about existing choices for EMR solutions to support the Olympic sites, national teams, or host city hospitals… only to help enable them to exchange information with each other and with other systems, using established international standards.

• OHI is very careful to ensure the Olympic brand is maintained and that it doesn't threaten the currentbusiness relationships and sponsor categories

15

OHI Benefits• To the Games:

o More integrated healthcare, better health, less cost, higher quality, etc.

• To the World:

o Digital Health legacy

o Demonstration of innovation and best practice

o Opportunities for developed and developing countries

• To the Digital Health Community:

o Very visible global demonstration of the use of international standards

o Valuable implementation feedback from a truly international implementation community

o Digital health visibility on the world stage
