  1. Dr. Peter Marks • Chief of Operations, Infrastructure and Operations Standardize Infrastructure from Desktop to Datacenter (D2D) to deploy the new Electronic Health Record (EHR) 1

  2. DHA Vision • “A joint, integrated, premier system of health, supporting those who serve in the defense of our country.”

  3. Agenda • Why the DHA? Why a new EHR? Why? • Describe and explain the DHA HIT IO and the major integration initiatives. • Express why a standardized infrastructure is important to the deployment of the new EHR. • Compare the upcoming standardization work with the initiatives currently in the MTFs and look for integration opportunities. • Give the initial results of the infrastructure standardization process for the Initial Operating Capability sites in the Pacific North West.

  4. Why did Congress and the Military create the DHA? • Creating a more globally integrated health system – built on our battlefield successes • Driving enterprise-wide shared services; standardized clinical and business processes that produce better health and better health care • Implementing future-oriented strategies to create a better, stronger, more relevant medical force • We are a single healthcare system and we have to support our Warriors and their families in the same manner regardless of physical location or Service affiliation 4

  5. New Department of Defense Electronic Health Record (EHR) • Objective: Support an integrated healthcare environment through standardizing infrastructure technology (IT) infrastructure down to the desktop • Approach • Focus on strategic IT infrastructure initiatives in support of improved clinical care • Identify IT consolidation opportunities and rationalize contracts to save money with one IT provider • Recognize cost savings for critical infrastructure initiatives • Many clinical locations; same IT functionality! 5

  6. The “Why”

  7. Current State Impacts to Healthcare Current State Business Impact Future State • Wasted time for beneficiaries spent completing duplicative tests/images • Potential delay in timely healthcare provision • Increased beneficiary costs due to duplicate tests/images Integrated beneficiary information across the continuum of care Beneficiaries Hospitals cannot share all beneficiary health information • Difficult to manage technical complexity • Disparity of solutions and service levels across the enterprise • Fragmented, non-enterprise healthcare IT solutions Technology Duplicative platforms and system software environments Seamless delivery of standardized enterprise solutions Providers & Staff • Wasted time spent troubleshooting disparate user interfaces • Duplicative user training costs • Frustrated providers and staff • Inability to move freely between hospitals/clinics and must have numerous accounts and log-ons Seamless and integrated user experience

  8. Medical Technical Infrastructure Objectives • Improve the quality of health care by implementing a single IT infrastructure from Desktop to Datacenter (D2D) • Eliminate IT redundancies across the enterprise to maximize effectiveness and achieve financial efficiencies  • Increase IT responsiveness and agility through a centrally managed and maintained technical architecture to support the military medical community • Implement first in the Pacific Northwest to support the EHR deployment and continue to deploy in advance of the program 

  9. Scope of Infrastructure Consolidation Common Email Common Directory • Each of these areas are critical components to: • Clinical integration across the Military Health System • Clinical integration with external partners (VA and Commercial) • Cost Savings • EHR Solution Delivery Common Audio/Video Services MHS Health IT InfrastructureRoadmap Standard Desktop Hosting Infrastructure Common Service Desk Common Network Infrastructure Common Web Strategy

  15. How are we getting there? • Established Working Groups with Service and former TMA representatives to conduct an evaluation of the As-Is environments across cost, schedule, performance, and risk to develop potential solutions Courses of Action (COAs) INPUTS OUTPUTS Cost • Labor • Hardware • Software Build a solution from the ground up? Build Schedule • FOC • IT Roadmap • DHSM Deployment • Key Dependencies Purchase a COTS solution from outside vendor or govt entity that provides solution WG Evaluation Buy Performance • Reliability • Availability • Security Adopt Risk • Joint Governance • Funding • Enterprise Level Agreement Adopt a DoD/MSL capability and expand for the enterprise

  16. Governance • COAs are developed and coordinated through DHA I&O IPT processes • COAs are briefed to DHA I&O Executive Committee for Decision • Infrastructure Decisions are briefed to DHA HIT Leadership for concurrence • Depending on size, cost, and mission impact infrastructure decision are briefed to other MHS governance bodies (MOG, MBOG, MDAG, etc.)

  17. Our Goal: Future State DS/EM Future State Operational Environment Beneficiaries’ tests and images shared Tests/Images Set #1 Tests/Images Set #1 Beneficiary Distance: 17 Miles SAMMC WHASC MTF MTF Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center San Antonio Military Medical Center Account #1 Providers have access to same accounts Provider • 17

  18. What you can expect from I&O • We are focused on MHS Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (not Army, Navy, AF, or TMA solutions) • All current programs are on the table and being evaluated independently • You have representation at the table (reps from all Services and former EI as well as former MTF CIOs) • We are still getting our sea legs (new organization, new EHR, same mission) – but we are getting them quickly • We will admit when “We don’t know” • All great ideas do not originate from the DHHQ - We want your feedback and your ideas • We will get better at communicated to the field - quickly

  19. How can you help? • Let us know what is working and what is not working • We want your feedback and your ideas • Don’t just come with problems – come with solutions • Let us know who yourexperts are • Keep the faith – if the IT community doesn’t believe this will enhance warrior care - who will?

  20. Health Information and Technology (HIT) Pacific NW Site Visit Trip Report 16-20 June 2014 20

  21. Pacific NW Site Visit Objectives Pacific Northwest DHMSM Locations • Objectives • In preparation for the implementation of DHMSM, DHA I/O leadership team conducted a site visit to the Pacific Northwest IOC facilities to ensure our collective preparedness for the new EHR. Facilities visited included: • Madigan Army Medical Center • Naval Hospital Bremerton • Naval Hospital Oak Harbor • Fairchild Air Force Base • To develop a comprehensive understanding of each PNW site our team met with Command Leadership, walked through a site assessment questionnaire, and conducted a tour of the IT operations. Naval Hospital Oak Harbor 3 Fairchild Air Force Base 4 Naval Hospital Bremerton 2 1 Madigan Army Medical Center

  22. Purpose/ Benefits of Visit Purpose Benefits • Set the stage for the need for standard infrastructure across the DoD to support the new iEHR • Gained a sense of the level of standardization at the sites • Captured user, desktop, network, bandwidth, hardware, and software data • Formed relationships with key IT staff; they all want the IOC program to be a success • Met with Command Leadership and presented the “Desktop to Data Center” brief • Met with the CIOs and local IT staff to gain an understanding of their site-specific challenges and pain points • Reviewed and discussed the Site Assessment Questionnaire • Toured the IT Operations, Data Centers
