Direct
FHIR is a new standard that defines a web API and related specifications for health data exchange. Direct is an existing federal standard that is widely used in the USA for the exchange of healthcare data. Within the Direct community, Direct Trust provides scalable security and a trust framework through legal contracts, formal policies, accreditation, and a PKI-based trust authority. Because there is such expenditure involved in planning, setting up and maintaining trusted distribution networks, there is strong incentive to leverage existing networks as much as possible. Therefore, this track will explore two possible models of leveraging DirectTrust’s trust framework.
They are:
- Sending FHIR resources within a Direct Message as an attachment
- Utilizing DirectTrust certificates with the FHIR RESTful API to enable trust relationships to scale
Pre-Requisites
For all levels of testing the required pre-requisite is the fundamental requirement that all FHIR servers SHALL support the capabilities interaction.
In addition for track 1, participants will need a Direct implementation that can send / receive direct messages with attachments.
Track Administration
- Coordinator: Luis Mass, EMR Direct
- Coordinator: Calvin Beebe, Mayo Clinic - cbeebe@mayo.edu
- Management & Communications: Dr. David Kibbe - DirectTrust President and CEO - david.kibbe@directtrust.org
Expected participants
- Luis Mass – EMR Direct
- Bruce Schreiber – MaxMD
- Don Jorgenson - Inpriva
- Jim Fisher — MedAllies
- Michael Mall
Scenarios
The following scenarios will be exercised within the track:
- Sending FHIR resources within a Direct Message as an attachment
- Tasks will be documented after approval of use case
- Utilizing Direct Trust certificates with the FHIR RESTful API to enable trust relationships to scale
- Tasks will be documented after approval of use case
Use Cases for Scenario 1
- By law every patient has a right to receive their medical record. To support this, Stage 3 of the CMS Meaningful Use program is further expanding how a patient can gain electronic access to their health information. In addition to view/download/transmit through patient portals, the measure can be fulfilled by patients retrieving their record within 24 hours of its availability via ONC-certified API in a third party application.
- MaxMD developed the DirectOnFHIR™ solution demonstrated below for a patient to query their medical record simply by sending a Direct Message to a Direct Address associated with a FHIR interface. Therefore any hospital or provider organization utilizing a FHIR enabled EHR can meet the MU3 requirement by implementing the DirectOnFHIR™ solution and providing Direct Addresses to their patients. Consolidation of login credentials from multiple patient portals to a singular Direct Address with a familiar mail interface could help overcome adoption challenges.
- Applications for this patient and consumer Direct Messaging extend use cases beyond the new Stage 3 measure. Patient Direct Addresses also open up a secure and scalable channel for chronic disease management, medication reminders, and most importantly it empowers patients to manage their health electronically.
