Why are we talking about data interoperability?

Advancements in modern medicine have opened doors for targeted treatments from specialized institutions. While this availability of options benefits the patient, it also creates fragmented records of medical history, spread across multiple medical facilities that do not talk to each other.  A solution to address this challenge is the creation of Electronic Health Record (EHR) that facilitates data exchange.

The EHR advantage
The EHR advantage
  • Standardized record keeping.
  • Significant reduction in administrative efforts.
  • Comprehensive information thus elevating standards of patient care.
  • Facilitation of remote patient monitoring and care delivery.
Barriers to interoperability
Barriers to interoperability
  • Technical constraints.
  • Lack of proprietary standards and inconsistent data formats.
  • Financial constraints due to high costs of implementation.
  • Privacy constraints and need for developing secure data-sharing protocols.

Current initiatives driving interoperability

Interoperability requires technical effort to build common standards and a legislative push to incentivize this effort.  Go through the white paper to get a contextual view of how multiple entities are coming together to achieve this goal:

US initiatives

  • CommonWell Health Alliance & Carequality

  • Gravity project

 

Advances of the European Union

  • European Health Data Space (EHDS)

  • International Patient Summary (IPS)

 

Global collaboration

  • FHIR standard & SNOMED CT
    Global Digital Health Partnership (GDHP) & OpenEHR
