HLN Presents at AMIA 2017 on RCKMS

BY Noam Arzt ON November 13, 2017
Clinical Decision Support (CDS) | EHR/PHR | Electronic Case Reporting (eCR) | Events | HIE & Interoperability | Meaningful Use | Open Source | Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)

On November 8, 2017, Dr. Noam Arzt, President of HLN, participated in a panel discussion titled, “Advancing Electronic Case Reporting (eCR) to Enable Public Health Disease Control and Emergency Response: Getting Into the Technical Weeds.” Along with his colleagues from the University of Utah, the Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL), and CGI Federal, this session discussed details of the current national implementation of electronic case reporting (eCR) including its sponsorship by the Digital Bridge project. Specifically, Dr. Arzt presented on various models of deployment for the clinical decision support (CDS) component of eCR, referred to as the Reportable Condition Knowledge Management System (RCKMS).

Dr. Arzt suggested in this talk that while there are strong reasons why a centralized decision support service is recommended at this time (and is in fact being deployed), other more decentralized CDS options are possible, including replication of the centrally-deployed software at a local site or incorporation of the national CDS rules themselves into a local CDS product (for instance, by using CQL). Given the diversity of systems in the US and the varying timetables for implementation, likely all these strategies will be enabled over time. The most important thing is for all these deployment strategies to rely on a single, consistent set of rules developed by public health and compliant with state and local jurisdiction law and policy.
