  1. A Brief Review of CIMI Plans and Goals Rockville CIMI Meetings September 14, 2012 Stanley M Huff, MD Chief Medical Informatics Officer Kaiser Permanente Standards Summit September 7-8 , 2011 Stanley M. Huff, MD

  2. The Ultimate Value Proposition of CIMI • Sharing of: • Data • Information • Applications • Decision logic • Reports • Knowledge

  3. Strategic Goals • Minimum goal: Be able to share applications, reports, alerts, protocols, and decision support with ALL GE customers • Maximum goal: Be able to share applications, reports, alerts, protocols, and decision support with anyone in the WORLD

  4. From Ben Adida and Josh Mandel

  5. Standard set of detailed clinical data models coupled with… Standard coded terminology Standard API’s (Application Programmer Interfaces) for healthcare related services Open sharing of models, coded terms, and API’s Sharing of decision logic and applications What Is Needed to Create a New Paradigm?

  6. Clinical modeling activities • Netherlands/ISO Standard • CEN 13606 • United Kingdom – NHS • Singapore • Sweden • Australia • openEHR Foundation • Canada • US Veterans Administration • US Department of Defense • Intermountain Healthcare • Mayo Clinic • HL7 • Version 3 RIM, message templates • TermInfo • CDA plus Templates • Detailed Clinical Models • greenCDA • Tolven • NIH/NCI – Common Data Elements, CaBIG • CDISC SHARE • Korea • Brazil

  7. Clinical Information Modeling Initiative Mission Improve the interoperability of healthcare systems through shared implementable clinical information models.

  8. Clinical Information Modeling Initiative Goals • Shared repository of detailed clinical information models • Using a single formalism • Based on a common set of base data types • With formal bindings of the models to standard coded terminologies • Repository is open and models are free for use at no cost

  9. Goal: Models that support multiple contexts • Messages • Services • Decision logic (queries of EHR data) • EHR data storage • Clinical trials data (clinical research) • Normalization of data for secondary use • Creation of data entry screens • Natural Language Processing

  11. Roadmap (some parallel activities) • Choose a single formalism • Choose the initial set of agreed data types • Define strategy for the core reference model and our modeling style and approach • Development of “style” will continue as we begin creating content

  12. Roadmap (continued) • Create an open shared repository of models • Requirements • Find a place to host the repository • Select or develop the model repository software • Create model content in the repository • Start with existing content that participants can contribute • Must engage clinical experts for validation of the models

  13. Roadmap (continued) • Create a process (editorial board?) for curation and management of model content • Resolve and specify IP policies for open sharing of models • Find a way of funding and supporting the repository and modeling activities • Create tools/compilers/transformers to other formalisms • Must support at least ADL, UML/OCL, Semantic Web, HL7 • Create tools/compilers/transformers to create what software developers need • Examples: XML schema, Java classes, CDA templates, greenCDA, RFH, SMART RDF, etc.

  14. Selected Decisions

  15. Decisions (London, Dec 1, 2011) • We agree to create and use a single logical representation (the CIMI core reference model) comprising one or more models as the basis for interoperability across formalisms. • We approve ADL 1.5 as the initial formalism in the repository using OpenEHR Constraint Model noting that modifications are required. • The corresponding Archetype Object Model will be included and adapted as the CIMI UML profile • The CIMI UML profile will be developed concurrently as a set of UML stereotypes, XMI specification and transformations

  16. Decisions (London, Dec 1, 2011) • We will create a workplan to say how we review and update the Constraint Model, reference models and languages including HL7 Clinical Statement Pattern and Entry model of 13606 / OpenEHR. The workplan to be approved in January. • The CIMI information model as described in the UML profile must be consistent with the evolving AOM. We will ensure this consistency by creating a single technical working group.

  17. Definition of “Logical Model” • Models show the structural relationship of the model elements (containment) • Coded elements have explicit binding to allowed coded values • Models are independent of a specific programming language or type of database • Support explicit, unambiguous query statements against data instances

  18. Definition of “Logical Model” (cont) • Models shall specify a single unit of measure (unit normalization) • Models can support inclusion of processing knowledge • Models can support recommend defaults • Models can specify assumed values of attributes (meaning of absence of the item) • Examples can be created for the model

  19. Isosemantic Models Precoordinated Model (CIMI deprecated Model) HematocritManual (LOINC 4545-0) HematocritManualModel 37 % data Post coordinated Model (CIMI preferred Model) Hematocrit (LOINC 20570-8) HematocritModel 37 % data quals Hematocrit Method HematocritMethodModel Manual data

  20. Isosemantic Models • CIMI is committed to isosemantic clinical models in terms of both: • The ability to transform CIMI models into iso-semantic representations in other languages/standards (e.g. OWL, UML, HL7); • The ability to transform CIMI models between iso-semantic representations that use a different split between terminology pre-coordination versus structure.

  21. Isosemantic Models (cont) • Only include isosemantic models in the repository when they are useful • Re-use of transforms by other enterprises • Re-use of transforms by other processes • Lab data transforms • Data normalization for clinical trials or secondary use • Repository requirement • Know which models are part of the same isosemantic family • Transform rules may be reused based on “type of model” • Only difference may be terminology mapping

  22. Terminology • SNOMED CT will be the primary reference terminology • LOINC was also approved as a reference terminology • In the event of overlap, SNOMED CT will be the preferred source • CIMI will propose extension to the reference terminologies when needed concepts do not exist • CIMI will maintain the extensions until they are accepted by the RT organization

  23. Terminology (cont) • The primary version of models will only contain references (pointers) to value sets • We will create tools that read the terminology tables and create versions of the models that contain enumerated value sets

  24. Some Principles • CIMI DOES care about implementation. There must be at least one way to implement the models in a popular technology stack that is in use today. The models should be as easy to implement as possible. • Only use will determine if we are producing anything of value • Approve “Good Enough” RM and DTs • Get practical use ASAP • Change RM and DTs based on use

  25. Pleasanton May 10-12, 2012 • Resolution: The reference model presented by the Reference Model Task Force is endorsed as a starting point and establishes the direction that CIMI wishes to take. We expect that this model will be tested and modified as modeling work continues.

  26. Pleasanton May 10-12, 2012 • Agreed that there must be a computable semantic relationship between elements in a model • A clean relationship condition could be added to the AOM and the reference model. The current lack could be solved pretty easily. There could be consequences for the tooling. This seems like quite a nice addition. It would force modelers to specify a relationship. • (This is not quite finished. We need to see examples in ADL/AOM where the relationship code has been added.)

  27. Data types (new insight) Language/context specific implementation of data types Language independent specification of data types CDL DTs V3 XML DTs Logical Data Types Specification UML DTs Translators Translators ADL DTs Translators CDA DTs OWL DTs LRA DTs SMArt DTs

  28. Goals for Rockville Meeting • Continue modeling work • Approve a proposal for creating an Editorial Board • Decide on what tools to use to make models • Create a team to do an end-to-end proof of concept • Possible targets: FIHR, SMArt, CDA template, HL7 V2, others? • Updates and information sharing: OMG AML RFI, CDL to ADL conversion, finding a parent organization, FIHR, member survey

  29. Conflicts of Interest
