User can create a patient
User searches for resources by code, date, profile(?)
Terminology Server plugged in to validate and assist in selecting values (see clinFHIR as an example)
User can create resources based on a profile

Simple Data Security

User can only see their data
User can only modify their data

Advanced Data Security

Role level access to data
Group level access to data
Location based access to data

Bulk Data Loader and Generator

User can load and build sharable data sets

Enterprise Quality Data Set #content #data

Data set representative of one or more actual enterprise EHRs

Reference Applications

Bilirubin Chart Application

App provides advice based on current threshold
App gets live updates when new values arrive in the underlying EHR
OpenCDS Uses (U of U)
- Application makes a call to Decision Support and gets immediate feedback
CDS Hooks Use Cases
- When user opens app, if one of the following conditions is met, a CDS Hooks Card is shown:
  - Patient doesn't have TcB or a TSB observation for patient after a certain time limit
  - Bili Count Values exceed a certain threshold

Bilirubin Monitor

Monitor sends alerts based on decision support rules
Uses rules published in a Knowledge Management system

Care Coordination Scheduler

Allows a Care Coordinator (FHIR - Practitioner) to manage schedules for a Patient
- Phase 1: HRI-452 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Clinical Data Models and Definitions

Logical Models

Tools to help developers create applications that are based on logical clinical models and accepted medical terminology concepts.

Structural Models (Profiles)

Validation of data based on profiles
- Need to engage Graham, James, and Tom on finalizing specification for validation rules and error handling.
- Validation can potentially happen client side, server side or by third party.
- Validation constraints (e.g. profiles) can be provided by client, server or third party
Visual Tools to create data based on a profile

FHIR Subscription (aka "Trigger") Support #feature

Pattern Matching
- Supporting the FHIR "search" framework / query language in a reactive sense
(Re)action
- Websocket
- REST hook - posting an event payload to a specific endpoint
- External communication - email, sms
- FHIR message - publishing an event (or invoking an operation?)

CDS Hooks Support

Build in support for CDS Hooks into FHIR Starter (or whatever Mock-EHR HSPC ends up using in the sandbox).

EHR Event Models #content

Support for a common set of logical Clinical and Administrative events generated by the EHR. E.g. ADT

Communication

Alerts & Notifications

Common way to raise alerts and notifications from an app/svc external of the EHR

Terminology Management

Terminology Support

Coding resolution to retrieve concepts and their descriptions
Resolve relationships between concepts
Resolve valuesets

Terminology Server

Exposing the terminology capabilities as a service

Terminology Authoring Tool

Enable the creation, maintenance and versioning of coded concepts, terms, valuesets and mappings

Conformance Testing Tools & Framework

Tools to test the conformance of applications, knowledge, and services against the HSPC specification. It still needs to be determined what it means to be an HSPC compliant application.

Integration Libraries

Client Integration

Java - integration library for the rapid development of Java applications
Android -
C# -
Python -

EHR Platform Integration Libraries

Epic, Cerner, Athena, etc..

HSPC Marketplace

Marketplace for Application, Platform, and Knowledge Asset Developers to showcase and sell their HSPC compliant items.

Knowledge Management Frameworks & Tools

Tools for the versioning, storage, and runtime retrieval of:

Profiles
CDS Rules
Workflows
etc.
