09:00 NHS CfH: Care Record Sumary & Entries
Speaker: Dr Ken Lunn

NHS Connecting for Health has adopted HL7 V3 as a core standard for electronic communications for the National Programme. This includes a broad range of clinical applications including demographics, access control, electronic prescribing, and detailed clinical information exchange. We publish a localisation of the V3 standard, which suppliers use to define their interactions in a heterogeneous network of applications. Our current implementations involve the broadest HL7 V3 implementation worldwide, and in some areas the highest number of messages of a particular type. As well as applying the HL7 V3 standard, we are proactive in extending it, participating in HL7 working group meetings and sponsoring projects to further develop the standard. We also have taken a proactive stance with HL7 V3 tooling and have been the main instigators of the HL7 Tooling Collaborative.

9.45 Canadian V3 Experiences: ePrescription, Claims & Disease Management
Speaker: Mr Marc Koehn

Canada’s health jurisdictions are aggressively pursuing e-health initiatives to help improve the delivery of health care to their citizens.  Many of the associated initiatives are sustained by investments from Canada Health Infoway Inc., an independent, not-for-profit organization whose Members are Canada's 14 federal, provincial and territorial Deputy Ministers of Health.  These initiatives are also shaped greatly by a common architecture framework, namely Infoway’s Electronic Health Record Solution (EHRS) blueprint, and compatible data communication standards.  This unique business arrangement is beginning to bear fruit and may offer lessons for other jurisdictions seeking to accelerate their e-health agendas.

The presentation will briefly outline Canada’s constitutionally driven health delivery system.  It will then provide an overview of Infoway’s EHRS Blueprint, its key investment programs and, more specifically, the strategy of using contemporary messaging and nomenclature standards to drive EHR developments.  Given that so many initiatives are still under development, the presentation will attempt to take stock of progress to date and will surface key challenges and lessons learned.

08:30 HL7 V3 and SOA
Speaker: Dr Dan Russler
VP Clinical Informatics, Oracle

Solutions based on the HL7 Reference Information Model (RIM-based) have been specified by multiple governments internationally. These government specifications will be described and selected implementations will be reviewed. Implementations that illustrate the opportunities for success and for difficult issues as a result of these government decisions, including transition strategies from HL7 V2-based solutions to RIM-based solutions will be discussed.

09:15 CDA & CCD Specification & Implementation
Dr Bob Dolin, Kaiser Permanante

CDA has been the most successfully HL7 V3 standard artefact and has wide international implmentations since its inception.  CDA Release 2 is a major step forward in addressing structured and complex clinical information exchange needs.  The recently released Continuity of Care Document (CCD) implementation guide, which is based on CDA R2, is another significant step forward which will propel further the adoption and implementation of CDA.  Dr Bob Dolin is one of the chief CDA architect.  He will present a history of CDA and the recent development of CCD implementation guide.  He will also share with us the experiences of CDA implementations, discuss relevant key issues and paths forward.
