The adoption of health information systems and the integration of healthcare data and systems into efficient cross-institutional collaboration workflows of stakeholders (e.g., medical providers such as physicians, hospitals, clinics, labs, etc.) is a challenging problem for the healthcare domain. This chapter studies the way that well-established software engineering concepts and architectural styles can be employed to satisfy requirements of the healthcare domain and ease health information exchange (HIE) between stakeholders. Towards this goal, this chapter proposes a hybrid HIE architecture (HHIEA) that leverages the studied styles that include service-oriented architecture, grid computing, publish/subscribe paradigm, and data warehousing to allow the health information systems of stakeholders to be integrated to facilitate collaboration among medical providers. To demonstrate the feasibility and utility of the HHIEA, a realistic regional healthcare scenario is introduced that illustrates the interactions of stakeholders across an integrated collection of health information systems.

Technical Platform

MomConnect is a national initiative coordinated by the South African National Department of Health that sends text-based mobile phone messages free of charge to pregnant women who voluntarily register at any public healthcare facility in South Africa. We describe the system design and architecture of the MomConnect technical platform, planned as a nationally scalable and extensible initiative. It uses a health information exchange that can connect any standards-compliant electronic front-end application to any standards-compliant electronic back-end database. The implementation of the MomConnect technical platform, in turn, is a national reference application for electronic interoperability in line with the South African National Health Normative Standards Framework. The use of open content and messaging standards enables the architecture to include any application adhering to the selected standards. Its national implementation at scale demonstrates both the use of this technology and a key objective of global health information systems, which is to achieve implementation scale. The system’s limited clinical information, initially, allowed the architecture to focus on the base standards and profiles for interoperability in a resource-constrained environment with limited connectivity and infrastructural capacity. Maintenance of the system requires mobilisation of national resources. Future work aims to use the standard interfaces to include data from additional applications as well as to extend and interface the framework with other public health information systems in South Africa. The development of this platform has also shown the benefits of interoperability at both an organisational and technical level in South Africa.

Risk Management Framework

Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI) sejak tahun 2015 telah menggunakan teknologi cloud computing sebagai pengganti infrastruktur data center yang mengalami kerusakan. Teknologi ini merupakan hal baru bagi LIPI. Setiap penerapan teknologi baru, organisasi dihadapkan berbagai peluang dan risiko yang dapat mempengaruhi kinerja organisasi tersebut baik positif maupun negatif. Terlebih cloud computing merupakan salah satu skema outsourcing TIK sehingga manajemen risiko yang tepat harus dilaksanakan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah melakukan manajemen risiko terhadap penggunaan teknologi cloud computing menggunakan framework yang tepat sehingga manfaat dari teknologi tersebut dapat diperoleh secara maksimal. Penelitian ini menggunakan framework NIST SP800-37 revision 1 Guide for Applying the Risk Management Framework to Federal Information Systems. Pemilihan framework ini karena sudah banyak diterima berbagai institusi baik pemerintah maupun profesional. Selain itu framework ini telah diadaptasi untuk bisa menyesuaikan dengan lingkungan cloud. Enam tahapan dalam framework ini hanya dapat dilaksanakan sampai tahapan ketiga karena keterbatasan penelitian. Hasil dari penelitian yang telah terlaksana sampai tahap ketiga adalah tersusunnya dokumen rencana keamanan yang merupakan bagian dari proses manajemen risiko. Diharapkan dokumen rencana keamanan yang berisi kategorisasi sistem informasi, tipe informasi, dan kontrol keamanan yang terpilih dapat diimplementasikan sehingga keamanan lingkunga cloud dapat terjamin.

Abstract:Patient care management provided by healthcare organizations is complex, involving many different care providers. The information exchange between providers concerns a varying and considerable number of actors and a high transmission load. Based on models, used to characterize specific features of work processes, we propose a new method able to analyze and represent clinical communications inside hospitals. Software has been developed, providing tools for storing and retrieving information resulting from clinical communications. The method, together with data collected in actual situations, may constitute useful tools for health information systems developers.
