A Use Case RoadMap: Driving Policies & Standards (HIMSS19)

February 11, 2019 | Orlando, FL  HIMSS19 Innovation and Conference Center – W230A

1:15pm – 2:15pm

Interoperability requires an alignment of policies, standards, and technologies.  Harmonization across these components is more easily achieved when specific value propositions are identified and stakeholders are in concurrence.  Therefore, much progress is driven incrementally – often leveraging a use case-driven approach. This session explores the near-term use case roadmap for industry consortia and the implications for care delivery and value-based initiatives.

PULSE: A Health IT Disaster ResponsePlatform (HIMSS19)

February 12, 2019 | Orlando, FL  HIMSS19 Innovation and Conference Center – W230A

10:30am – 11:30am

When disaster strikes and families are relocated to shelters in their community or even further afield, prescription refills and other healthcare needs become more challenging. The Sequoia Project is leading the Patient Unified Lookup System for Emergencies (PULSE), a nationwide health IT disaster response platform that can be deployed at the city, county or state level to authenticate disaster healthcare volunteer providers. It was conceived by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC) and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) following experiences in Hurricanes Katrina and Sandy. Well-meaning physicians and providers flocked to shelters to help, but the shelters could not confirm medical credentials of the volunteers, and the volunteers could not access evacuee health records. Learn how your community can leverage health IT and existing connectivity in your disaster planning.
