QUEENSLAND HEALTH HOSPITAL DEPARTMENTS

An increasing number of Queensland Health hospital departments are setup with Medical Objects. A number of the departments are for inbound referrals only, some are for outbound discharge summaries only, and some can provide both services. The following table details whether they are inbound/outbound/or both. To find the departments on the Medical Objects provider lookup, simply search ‘Qhealth’ in the name search.

If you are interested in receiving Discharge Summaries electronically you can download the STS Connection form and return it to the STS team. Details are on the form.

Note – To Receive Discharge Summaries electronically, Medical Objects will need to import your Medicare PKI Site Certificate (Location Certificate) into the download client. Instructions for doing so can be found at this link.

If you are unsure if you already have your PKI certificate installed in the Medical Objects software please call 07 5456 6000 and we can assist in getting it installed. You should have a copy of your PKI CD that was provided by Medicare, as well as the corresponding PIC Passphrase to allow the install to take place.

If you do not have a PKI location certificate you can apply for one on the Medicare PKI Homepage or call 1800 700 199

Introduction

This project is a part of the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Greenfield Incubation initiative. Its official name is “Enhanced Clinical Decision Support for CPRS” (initiative number 209).

Project submitted by Dr. Clayton Curtis (Boston VAMC and CHIO). Development work was contracted to HP Enterprise Services, with subcontracts to Medexter and Medical Objects.

The Purpose (Mission)

Improvement of patient care through greater and more effective clinical decision support at the point of care.

Benefits to VA/VHA:

This proposal would be a first of its kind effort to enable VA’s Electronic Health Record (EHR) to use a standards-based Clinical Decision Support (CDS) framework to support complex decision support needs of clinicians at the point of care.
In 3 meetings in 2008, senior clinicians from VHA met to develop a set of guiding principles and desired characteristics for the EHR. In the summary report (available on the VHA intranet), the term decision support appears multiple times.
VA is better positioned than almost any other health care organization to take advantage of CDS. VA goals for quality, safety, and efficiency are tightly linked to decisions clinicians make while sitting at computers.
Beyond the direct impact on quality, safety, and efficiency, this proof of concept sets the stage for more sophisticated use of CDS in the future.

Objectives

The over-all objective of the project is to successfully link a standards-based decision support framework to VHA’s CPRS/VistA, with replication of the current clinical reminder capability and generation of a patient “report card” as initial applications demonstrating the technical innovation. Because the framework will include rules with both “logic” and “action” components (unlike the current clinical reminder system), it will also be possible to demonstrate other forms of integration with CPRS, such as recommending additions to the problem list based on data, chaining screening and evaluation reminders, etc. In addition, it will be possible to demonstrate uses of the framework for non-traditional applications, such as a patient report card. The major technical components of this project are the introduction of the ARDEN standard for encoding clinical logic in Medical Logic Modules (MLM) and development of an interface to Medical Domain Web Services (MDWS) for data services: the virtual Medical Record (vMR) interface to be accessed by HL7 GELLO interface.

The vMR is a simplified view of the HL7 V3 RIM (Reference Information Model).GELLO cannot alter a medical record but can perform complex logic in order to make a decision about a patients care. It can be used to provide standards based data access for other advanced decision support applications.

Medical-Objects produced the first GELLO compiler in clinical use and uses GELLO for Guidelines (using GLIF or Guideline Interchange Format) and for constraints, validation and calculated fields in Archetyped data entry.

It is also used to create complex data series for graphing or statistical analysis.In our initial deployment the GELLO engine can abstract HL7 V2 data to produce a vMR that is RIM compliant. It can be integrated into any system that can provide structured data through the abstract vMR interface. It integrates seemlessly with the HL7 based Medical-Objects EHR servers and has full support for SNOMED-CT expressions using canonical forms to compare different SNOMED-CT pre and post co-ordinated concepts. It also has LOINC and ICD-10 support.Medical-Objects use of GELLO v.1 and development of Revision 2 represents the cutting edge of Clinical Decision support capabilities using a standards based, cross platform, high performance GELLO engine.
