1. Winning Trust, Minimizing IT
Resources: Key to Forming
RHIOs
The SEMRHIO Experience
Mark Singh MD, President, Clinicore
Kathleen Sullivan MPH, CEO, Salient Health
2. Introduction
• Hospitals: Greater demand for electronic
data delivery: EMRs interfaces, Portals
• Physicians: Clinical data from multiple
disparate sources
• RHIOs: a solution
– Significant Barriers: Trust/Security, Cost
• Hospital buy-in: Need to overcome these barriers
3. Our Experience in forming SEMRHIO
• South Eastern Massachusetts Regional Healthcare
Information Organization
Milton Hospital
Jordan Hospital
Quincy Medical Center
4. Overcoming Barriers
• Developed a model:
– Gain Trust
– Minimize Hospital IT infrastructure
• lower cost of entry
• Won Approval from Hospital Leadership
– SEMRHIO
5. Problems Addressed
• Need to support EMR adoption, electronic data
delivery, interfaces to hospital systems
– Immediate problem which needs a solution within
next 2-3 years
• Health care delivery is distributed through out
community
– Challenge to have the appropriate data available in
order to provide safe patient care
– Trying to keep; up with fax machines: tough
6. EMR Adoption
• More doctors implementing EMRs
• Hospitals being asked to provide
interfaces
– Need to serve small and large practices
– Can this this be done more efficiently by
hospitals as a “group”: RHIO?
7. Care Delivered at Multiple Sites
Patient
Doctor’s offices
Imaging Hospital
Labs
Center Surgi-center
8. Clinical Data is spread out
• When taking care of a patient, need to
have access to data from all the other
sites
– Care delivered in Physician's offices (multiple
specialists, PCP)
– Hospitals/Emergency Rooms
– Nursing Homes
9. Need to Solve:
• How do we deliver clinical data
electronically?
• How to consolidate clinical data set in real
from disparate healthcare entities in order
to care for patients?
10. Solving these Problems
• RHIO seems to makes sense:
– multi-stakeholder organization
– Allow shared costs of common IT
infrastructure
• Economies of scale
– Framework for data sharing among competing
organizations
11. RHIO: Challenges and Barriers
• Perceived Negatives regarding RHIOs
– Too costly, Lack of sustainability models
– Too many security and trust issues among
Competing entities.
• uncomfortable with concept of “Sharing” clinical
data
12. “California RHIO closes amid cost,
privacy concerns”
The closure of the Santa Barbara Co. Care Data
Exchange
eHealth SmartBrief | 07/11/2007
13. Given these significant barriers,
how do we get community
based, independent, competing
hospitals to form a RHIO?
14. Need to Address Potential Barriers
• Cost and Security issues:
– Lack of IT Infrastructure and Resources
• Hospitals have more immediate pressing issues:
– i.e., CPOE , eMAR
– Trust among disparate organizations
15. Trust in Forming a RHIO
• Issue of Architecture, business process
– When thinking about RHIOs, we consider
classic approach for RHIO architectures
– Classic Model is a “federated”, “Pull” based
architecture using a Record Locator Service
(RLS)
16. “PULL” based Model
Pull Based RHIO Model

17. Pull Model
Complicates Trust issues
• Pull may work very well in a multi-site, single-
organization
• Has problems in a multi-organizational setting-
Problematic
– Introduces new Trust issues
– Each hospital (source) needs to determine what data
each user can access
– Model opens up a “can of worms”
– Can be a “show stopper” in forming RHIOs
18. “Best to automate an existing
business process and trust
relationship”
“The RHIO experience in Massachusetts”
John Halamka D. MD, CEO MA-SHARE

19. How do we build Trust ?
Use an existing Trust relationship
Use an existing Business Process

22. Proposed Model
• Adopt conservative approach: Don’t change the
current arrangement
– Hospital to send data to the legal recipient (“ordering”,
“primary” doctors) via RHIO (instead of fax/mail)
• Once received by doctor, ownership of data
goes to doctor
• Data sharing among doctors: “…for treatment,
payment, and healthcare operations” per HIPAA
guidelines.

24. IT Infrastructure Issues
• Hospitals wanted to commit minimal
resources
• Major Component of the RHIO: Hospital
Information System (HIS) Integration
– Need for HL7 Interface Engine
– Involved increased cost and complexity
26. Is there an easier solution?
– Studied other possibilities
• Extract desired data in near-real time, delimited
text format, using HIS query /reporting utility
• Proposed Model:
– Local: Extract hospital data using existing the HIS
query/reporting utility
– Central: Conversion to HL7 centrally using BizTalk.
28. Advantages of Hosted Services
Model
• Move infrastructure to the other side of the
“Cloud”.
– Simplify/minimize onsite infrastructure
– Existing Local IT staff able to manage onsite
needs without additional training needed
– Centralize interface management
– Allow hospitals to share in economies of scale
29. Hosted Services
• Evolving Model: SOA ,SaaS
• Trend towards Hosted services
– i.e., Salesforce.com, Google, Postini
– Hosted email
– Many Hospitals outsource their IT
infrastructure and support: e.g., Perot systems
30. Hosted Integration
• Minimizing IT resources
• There was also a desire by hospitals to commit
minimal resources
• Reluctance to install additional software/hardware locally.
• We studied the existing hospital IT infrastructure and
developed a centralized “Hosted-Integration” model using
BizTalk server.
• This was a “zero” local foot print implementation model which
did not require any additional software/hardware locally, and
was implemented using basic IT personal.
31. The Process
• Extract data from HIS use existing built-in
reporting/query utility
• Hosted BizTalk integration server
– BizTalk receive data at input ports
– Delimited data mapped to HL7 2.x,
• The disparate data is mapped to a standard terminology.
• Final data is stored in SQL 2005 for delivery to the
recipient physicians.
35. Clinical Results Viewer
• Labs
• Radiology
• Clinical Reports
An “EMR-Lite” client
application to view
the data was built
using .NET and
Microsoft’s
“Composite
Application Block”.
36. Clinical Events Viewer
Keeps track of
patient events:
-Hospital, ER
admissions
discharges
- Bed Census
37. Conclusion:
• By using a “push” model and a BizTalk based
“Hosted-Integration-Services” model:
– Able to gain trust and minimize hospital IT resources
• Demonstrated how:
– competing community hospitals can succeed in
winning approval for forming a RHIO by their hospital
leadership.
