Healthcare Information Xchange of New York, Inc. Joel T. Ryba, COO Architecture of Collaboration Views of a Viral, Business Grade Information Sharing Social Network
Overview Business View of Collaboration How it differs from transactional systems Process View of Information Sharing Policies and Events and make data flow IT Views of the Social Network How Abstraction and Standards open communications Success Key success factors for similar products
The view of why we do it Business View
Drivers of the Social Network Goal is to achieve the Triple Aim of Improving the patient experience, Improving the health of populations, and Reducing the per capita cost of health care To do this, we create a single point of truth for all patient data by having all members of the community feed and access this social network Patient experience with this connected community should feel like a single integrated organization The patient now engages a community rather than moving silo to silo Care is continuous rather than broken
Collaboration is Key Being able to have mutual benefit This means constantly answering the question: What s in it for me? (WIIFM) If you don t produce content that I am interested in, then I am not giving you my content that you are interested in You can t force social networking This is a huge difference versus other types of systems that are driven internally by mandate
Rewarding is Key Like all business decisions, it needs to have a financial payback for those doing it, not just for patient care or select stakeholders. You may need to change business models to change behavior. Cost of Quality = Cost of Compliance + Cost of Noncompliance Started with some cost to comply and no cost to not. Lower the cost of compliance by making it easy to do (workflow), cheap to do (standards). Raise the cost of noncompliance primarily though missed revenue (payment reform)
Viral is Key Social Networks depend on actions within the system that introduce other users to the system. Viral Branding Has built HIXNY as users make offline recommendations to peers to join. Viral Action Is our next level of expansion as Hixny Delivered information makes its way from system to system, including to non-participants. Easing signup process for providers and patients will lower the cost of joining.
The view of what we do Process View
What we do Performs two clerical functions File Room Mail Room Combination of the two Surveillance
Consent Model is Key The Consent to Access model (not opt in, not opt out) All data flows into the file room, regardless of consent. Consent is used to pull records from the file room One-to-One messaging no consent is required Subscription set by data supplier Surveillance (aka alerts or notifications) Consent is required Subscription is set be the data recipient
The view of how we do it IT Views
Abstraction is our Technical Value SOA Platform HIE is the middleman Syntactical Interoperability (hear me) Transforms and standardizes messages Adapts to multiple transports Like the Telephone Network Semantic Interoperability (understand me) Common Data Model Terminology service translations
ESB is the platform for SOA Plumbing for SOA Connection interfaces Transformation Security Message routing Business process orchestration Auditing, Monitoring, Logging, Software Factory A central bus connecting everyone though a common data model. Orchestrates business processes based on complex events Conceptual IT Views are implemented as services and orchestrations
Success We made collaboration Viral by answering the question What s in it for me? By changing the cost of quality equation so that sharing information is more valuable than monopolizing it. By standardizing content and events and thus enabling mass customization of business processes above it. SOA/ESB flexibility and extensibility allows us to easily implement our conceptual architecture. Hixny is a success with 70% of our Provider market actively using our healthcare social network.

Connecting Health and Care for the Nation: A 10-Year Vision to Achieve an Interoperable Health IT Infrastructure We view the nationwide health information network as a continually expanding ecosystem of electronic exchange activities and network service providers across the nation that rely on a set of standards, policies, and services to meet electronic exchange needs including the privacy, security, and appropriate use of the information exchanged. http://healthit.gov/sites/default/files/onc10yearinteroperabilityconceptpaper.pdf 90 VITL Summit 14 - The HIE Experience
