3 What is HL7? Health Level Seven (HL7) is an ANSI accredited Standards Developing Organization (SDO), and develops the HL7 standard for Interoperability in Healthcare domain HL7 is an ISO certified standard (v2.7 & v3) It is an Open Standard accepted by the majority of healthcare solution suppliers Allows for data exchange between applications of different suppliers flexibility on solutions to be selected and adopted Is adopted by Governments as part of their strategic policy related to ICT in Healthcare But is not enough to solve the interoperability problems of the healthcare domain! 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 3

The need for interoperability Interoperability of ehealth systems should never be taken as given Quality and efficiency of care are prerequisites for affordable care.

11 The need for interoperability Interoperability of ehealth systems should never be taken as given Quality and efficiency of care are prerequisites for affordable care. Quality is never granted for free and needs to be proven. Efficiency requires sharing and reuse of clinical data Interoperable services are standards based data exchange services with defined content. 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 11

12 Antilope Background, purpose, outcome Digital Agenda and ehealth action plan European Projects: EpSOS: specifications of the cross border exchange of medical data EHR-Q TN : Quality Labelling and Certification of EHR systems HITCH (Healthcare Interoperability testing and Conformance Harmonisation): ehealth Interoperability roadmap 2012 eeif: ehealth Interoperability Framework Antilope: Thematic Network 30/09/2014 3η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 12

13 Antilope, Background, purpose, outcome HITCH: 1. There is a need for a widely accepted quality guide for interoperability testing based on existing quality standards. 2. An organized collaboration is needed to reduce the fragmentation and lack of maturity in interoperability test tools and test plans in specific areas. 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 13

14 Antilope, Background, purpose, outcome Antilope: a thematic network: Develop documentation and educational materials related to existing standards and profiles for ehealth interoperability mentioned in the eeif report and: Drive adaption and improve the standard development process Define QA testing guidelines for interoperability Propose a labelling and certification process (EU level and national level) 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 14

20 Functions A certification or quality label process requires: A Certification/Label Scheme Owner: a party that sets the Certification or a quality label program or system; A label/certification Body: a party that issues the quality label or certificate on the basis of the conformity assessment performed by a conformity assessment body; A Conformity Assessment Body: a party that assesses the conformity of products, services and/or suppliers (often called a testing laboratory) 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 20

23 Antilope, Background, purpose, outcome Main benefits: For Healthcare providers A harmonized European market for the ehealth solutions Better integration between solutions Ability to exchange electronically medical data between Regions and Nations For Industry One recognized quality label or certification process in Europe Avoid duplication between the national and regional testing processes Factor and mutualize specifications elements and corresponding testing tools develop a unified market in Europe 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 23

24 Conclusion Sum Up Interoperability of ehealth systems should never be taken as given Quality and efficiency of care are prerequisites for affordable care. Quality is never granted for free and needs to be proven. Efficiency requires sharing and reuse of clinical data ANTILOPE designs a European quality label or certification process that supports ehealth interoperability in Europe and shall operate in harmony with country specific quality label or certification processes. good opportunity for the industry to market their products in Europe within one recognized testing process, avoiding duplicate testing and inconsistencies among different testing processes HL7 Hellas coordinates region 5 (Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Cyprus, Turkey) in ANTILOPE HL7 Hellas can be one of the major links between the Greek Healthcare community and the International Interoperability SDOs 30/09/ η συνάντηση οικοσυστήματος ηλεκτρονικής υγείας 24
