National Role of HIE’s in Healthcare’s Future: Biomedical INFORMATICS Challenges April 10, 2014 Jan Root, Ph.D. & Matt Hoffman, M.D. UHIN
Payment Reform: A Changing Environment • Top Three HIT priorities to Accomplish this transition1: • Population Health: determine individuals at high financial risk (poor health which can be impacted positively) • Health Information Exchange: track patients’ risk in real time (know about the heart attack ASAP) • Analytics for Care Pathways: create real-time risk reduction care strategies (implement effective care strategies to improve health outcomes at lowest cost) 1: KLAS Report: Accountable Care Timing 2013, November 2013
Why is HIE rated #2 in Importance? • Patients seek care from many healthcare systems in any one market • The shared-risk partnership needs real-time clinical data to effectively manage risk • Claim data is not timely enough & lacks clinical depth cHIE Shared Patients Data 1 1 cHIE Data, October 2013
What does the cHIe do? • Collect Data and Use it cHIE
