5 1. Introduction to Supporting Organizations

6 INTAP (1) Outline of INTAP INTAP: Interoperability Technology Association for Information Processing - Non-profit organization founded in 1985 to promote OSI and to develop OSI ISP - Now changing its direction to Internet and other areas -Members: Hitachi, NEC, Fujitsu, Toshiba, Mitsubishi, Oki, Matsushita, IBM, Unisys, Sharp, Sumitomo and 20 other companies - Budget: Supported by METI, Member fee (METI:Ministry of Economy,Trade and Industry)

7 INTAP (2) Major Activities Research: - Internet Technology (in general) - Policy-based Network - Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP) - XML (XML signature, Cryptography) - System Management etc. Development: XML Signature, VPN, Security of Information Appliance Open Interface Inventory: WWW for information technology standard

8 INTAP (3) Open Distributed Processing Committee Working Group of INTAP Chaired by Mr. Tanaka, Hitachi Ltd. Topics of interest: RM-ODP (Reference Model for ODP) Modeling Technology of Distributed Systems Model Based Architecture Methodology and Tools for Software Development, etc. J-HI-REM Project Enterprise Viewpoint of Medical Information System

9 JAHIS (1) Founded member companies Has 3 divisions Planning and research Systems technology Accounting and claims

10 JAHIS (2) Major Activities - Standardization: -- Messaging; Lab testing, Medication, Health Examination, Elderly Care and EDI -- Modeling; Healthcare Reference Enterprise Model, Hospital Information Reference Model, Elderly Care Information Model and EDI Information Model - Alliance with: -- MEDIS, INTAP, HL7, ISO/TC215, OMG,JIRA DICOM through JIRA

13 2. Overview of Japanese Healthcare System

14 About Japan (1) Population: 127 million Area: 370 thousands square kilometers Ethnicity: Japanese Language: Japanese Currency: Yen

15 About Japan (2) Life Expectancy at Birth (1999): Male: 77.2 years Female: 84.0 years Causes of Death (1999): Malignant neoplasm 30% Cardiac disease 15% Cerebrovascular disease 14%

16 Classification of Japanese Healthcare Healthcare (narrow sense) Medicine Health-related Social Welfare Health Promotion Disease Prevention Treatment of Disease Disability Long-term care

17 Healthcare-related Laws Medical Service Law Medical Practitioners Law National Health Insurance Law Pharmaceutical Law Law of Long-term Care Insurance

18 Medical System Physicians (1998): 250,000 (20 per million) Hospitals and Clinics (1998): Hospitals (more than 19 beds): 9,300 Clinics (19 beds or less): 90,000 Beds (1998): 1,890,000 National Medical Expenditure (1998): 270 million dollars (7.9% of National Income)

19 Health Insurance System (1) Regulated by National Health Insurance Law Public Insurance System Compulsory Insurance (99%)

20 Health Insurance System (2) Patient Hospital Insurer Examination and Payment Facility

21 3. Summary of RM-ODP

22 ISO/IEC Standards ISO/IEC Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing - Foundation ISO/IEC Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing - Architecture ISO/IEC FCD Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing - Enterprise Viewpoint

23 Features of RM-ODP A Modeling Methodology Consists of 5 Viewpoints Terms are clearly-defined

24 Five Viewpoints Enterprise Viewpoint - Institutional arrangement as contracts Information Viewpoint - Semantics of and relationship among information items Computational Viewpoint - Separation of functions and definition of interfaces among them Engineering Viewpoint - Mechanism to realize above Technical Viewpoint - Choice of technologies

25 Features of Enterprise Viewpoint Top Level Viewpoint of Five Viewpoints Business-oriented Viewpoint A Domain is regarded as a Community A Community has Enterprise Objects Community and Enterprise Objects have their own Roles and Processes Obligation, Prohibition, Permission and Authorization are defined as Policies

27 4. Outline of the Project

28 Organizers INTAP JAHIS MEDIS

29 Primary Objective of the Project by March, 2001 To Develop Preliminary version of J-HI-REM

30 Goals of the Project To describe the Japanese Healthcare System in terms of RM-ODP Enterprise Language To evaluate the usefulness of RM-ODP To standardize Japanese Health Informatics To harmonize with International Standards ISO/TC215, HL7, DICOM, OMG Healthcare DTF etc especially with HL7 RIM To make a guideline for the development of RM-ODP Enterprise Model

31 Scope of the Model Medicine only Middle-size Hospital only c. 300 beds National Health Insurance only Health Medicine Social Welfare Scope

32 Modeling Approach 1. To Analyze Business Flow in Hospitals 2. To Abstract Sub-communities and Enterprise Objects 3. To Abstract Roles, Processes 4. To define Policies

33 Overview of JHIREM Hospital Community consists of Ward, Outpatient, Radiological, Laboratory, Pharmaceutical Accounting and Reception Subcommunities Enterprise Objects are Patients, Physicians, Nurses, Radiological Technologists, Clinical Technologists, Pharmacists, Receptionists and ODP System

34 Hospital Community Hospital Community Ward Dept. Outpatient Dept. Radiological Dept. Laboratory Dept. Pharmaceutical Dept. Accounting Dept. Reception Dept. Dept: Department or Sub-community

35 Enterprise Objects in the Community Hospital Community Patient Physician Nurse Radiological Technologist Pharmacist Clinical Technologist ODP system Receptionist

36 Future Themes To Refine the Enterprise Model To apply to larger hospitals and smaller clinics To extend beyond Medical Field To add Sub-communities such as Surgery department To add Objects such as Medical Records, Medical Equipment and Medication To develop Viewpoints other than the Enterprise Viewpoint To harmonize with HL7 RIM
