September, 2005What IHE Delivers 1 Presented by Charles Parisot, IHE Europe IT Infrastructure Planning Committee co-Chair eHealth interoperability ad hoc group January 17, 2007 Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) Approach and Patient Summary

2 Agenda IHE, a proven multi-stakeholder process IHE, what can be leveraged IHE Medical Summaries, a solid base, potential for European national extensions

3 What is Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise? It implements a methodology which enables users and suppliers to work together to obtain clinical interoperability IHE tailors existing standards to fit the IT requirements for specific clinical tasks The IHE Technical Framework document specifies clinical tasks and how to use profiles of existing standards to support them Annual test sessions enable suppliers to test their application software for conformance with the IHE Technical Framework Purchasers can buy systems that are known to interoperate

19 Agenda IHE, a proven multi-stakeholder process IHE, what can be leveraged IHE Medical Summaries, a solid base, potential for European national extensions

20 Medical Summaries EU Stakeholder group study (Rossi Mori) has confirmed There is a significant variety of medical summaries (in use or in plan) across the European countries. Some of the differences are: There is a significant variety of medical summaries (in use or in plan) across the European countries. Some of the differences are: scope/use case driven scope/use case driven due to national specificities due to national specificities from the technical standard used from the technical standard used IHE Patient Care Coordination: Is well engaged with the scope/use case driven differences Is well engaged with the scope/use case driven differences Plan to address national specificities based on the stakeholder WG analysis, and the interest of the countries Plan to address national specificities based on the stakeholder WG analysis, and the interest of the countries 2007 is the year IHE-Europe has set to finalize a family of patient summaries for several European countries with a common core is the year IHE-Europe has set to finalize a family of patient summaries for several European countries with a common core.

24 In Conclusion IHE is a user & vendor driven initiative. IHE is dedicated to interoperability of IT systems in healthcare with proven methodology. IHE Integration and Content Profiles are already used in Europe and world-wide. IHE is experienced with patient summaries. IHE ready to engage in fostering a consistent family of patient summary documents and a sharing infrastructure between countries and regions in Europe.
