Return to: Care Coordination Service

Contents

Business Purpose of the Specification

Presently in the Health Care industry, a patient may be under concurrent treatment by a variety of physicians and specialists, and each of these maintains a “plan” that suits their perspectives, purposes, and time horizons. Without mechanism to positively coordinate these plans, gaps and overlaps emerge, leading to compromised quality and efficiency of care. These stakes are especially high in cases of chronic conditions (or multiple chronic conditions, such as Diabetes plus Cardiovascular disease).

The purpose of the HSSP Care Coordination Service (CCS) is to support collaborative planning and execution of operational health care around a “coordinating” care plan that is live and shared among a multi-disciplinary care team. The care team may be dynamically managed to consist of members from either the same or different organizations (e.g. primary care clinic, home care, allied health professionals, hospital, skilled nursing facility, etc.)

There exist standards from HL7 and IHE by which specialty or episodic “plans of care” may be exchanged as CDA documents or sections therein, but there is no standard structure or service that unifies them or directly supports the collaboration, reconciliation, consolidation, and sharing of the “cleaned-up” or reorganized plan.

As regards this sharing, the CCS will allow changes made or proposed by one participant to be immediately viewable by all, and will even support concurrent editing by multiple authors. With that foundation, the CCS allows a primary provider (for example) to raise a controlled discussion around a specified topic,for some selected plan items, or for the plan as a whole. Even a Clinical Decision Support System may participate as a first-class team member, contributing to discussions or raising new discussions.

The CCS should allow for greatly increased manageability of care plans.

Business Capabilities

Capabilities express "abilit[ies] that an organization, person or system possesses" [1]. Capabilities are independent of business process and business rules; capabilities express the "what" rather than the "how".

The Care Coordination Service (CCS) capabilities comprise the core of the normative content of the HL7 SOA Service Functional Model (SFM) based on the Health Services Specification Program (HSSP) methodology.

These capabilities naturally fall into logical groupings which we'll also represent as UML interfaces in the informative part of the HL7 SOA SFM. The logical groupings will be referred to as capability sets in this document.

As a rule the capabilities are independent from organizational policies and business rules. This decoupling allows the CCS capabilities to be combined to support various business processes and organizational policies. This is key for realizing care coordination services through the continuum of care.

The HL7 CCS service functional model (SFM) specifies business service capabilities to support collaboration on care coordination activities. These business service capabilities are intentionally expressed in terms of the HL7 patient care domain analysis models. A follow up effort by this group in collaboration with OMG will focus on the development of a technical specification which will define services, messages and network communications interactions.

Care Collaboration - Care Team Capability Set

Invite to Collaboration Participants

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here

An invitation is a request from one individual to another to participate as a collaborator in care coordination activities for one patient. Participants join the the Care Team via an invitation based process which results in organically growing the patient's care team. Instead of making a phone call and sending faxes a licensed independent practitioner, a nurse or a physician, would send an invitation to collaborate. This invitation is the first step to initiate interactions with new care team members for referrals, transitions of care, consultations, etc.

  • A patient can directly invite providers and care givers to join his or her care team (as the patient is the primary member of the care team).
  • An invitation may be sent from any existing care team participant to new care team member.
  • The patient's delegated steward of their care plan, a licensed independent practitioner (LIP) such as a PCP, nurse manager or other professional care plan facilitators will typically serve as the "seed" of the collaboration forest as they invite other providers to collaborate in care coordination activities.

Policies and rules regarding who is entitled to send and receive invitations for collaboration and the corresponding level of visibility into patient care activities will continue to be dictated by existing processes (e.g. policies that allow a provider to fax clinical information to a specialist or have a phone conversation about my health conditions).

Precondition

The invitation placer must be an existing member of the patient's care team. This may include the following roles as defined in the HL7 Care Plan model:

  • Patient
  • Provider
  • Care Giver
  • Support Member

Inputs

  • Role and Person details for initiating collaborator
  • Patient details
  • New collaborator Role and Person details
  • Collaboration Reason (e.g referral, care transition)
  • Link to Care Plan, Plan of Care

Outputs

none

Postconditions

New collaborator receives a secure message with request for collaboration

Exception Conditions

New collaborator not vetted by external policy checks

Outstanding Issues

Discuss role of treatment plan

Respond to Collaboration Invitation

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here

An invitation response results in the addition of a new care team participant upon acceptance. The recipient of the invitation may also reject the invitation or delegate to a colleague.

Allowed response types are:

  • Accept request for collaboration
  • Delegate request for collaboration to another participant
  • Delegate request but choose to stay in the collaboration loop (e.g. supervising provider)
  • Reject request for collaboration


Preconditions

A collaboration invitation has been initiated by an active member of the care team and received in the form of a secure message containing a unique invitation token.

Inputs

  • Invitation Token
  • Response Type (Accept, Reject, Delegate_Completely, Accept_And_Delegate)
  • Invitation recipient Role and Person details
  • [if response type is delegation] New Collaborator Role and Person Details

Outputs

none

Postconditions

Invited participant becomes a new member of the care team with access to patient care context.

Exception Conditions

  • Invitation has been recalled by placer
  • Invitation has expired due to inaction
  • Invitation can not be delegated

Find Collaborator Relationships

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here

Care coordinators are collaborators working towards the patient's health goals and execution of care plan and plans of care. Their relationships form a social graph used to support collaboration in care coordination activities. This capability supports awareness of the patient's circle of care for all participants of the care team and is the foundation for effective and meaningful communications to support transitions, follow up, closing the loop, etc. This capability helps to identify who is involved and what their role in care is.

These relationships grow organically as the care team sends invitations to collaborate on care coordination activities. For example, an invitation from a licensed independent practitioner (LIP) to a cardiologist results in two new relationship links from the new provider to the patient and between the existing and new providers.

Note: The contents of social graph may be filtered based on policies and business rules. For example, it may not be desirable for certain team members to discover that a patient is seeing a mental health provider.

Care Collaboration - Care Team Conversation Capability Set

Care Team Conversation Thread

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here

Conversation is the heart of collaboration. Any member of the care team may initiate a conversation with another member of the care team at any time in order to coordinate care. By default the conversation is private to the participants involved. Organizational policies and business rules may determine if a conversation is visible beyond the direct participants.

The CCS conversation model:

  • Captures the free form text, natural language, content of business interactions
  • May capture structured observations resulting from question/answer electronic form interactions.
  • Links to the semantic structured context pertaining to the conversation (clinical statements)

A conversation may simply consist of free text such as a questions from a patient to his or her provider. A conversation may also pertain to a some aspect of the care plan such as: a communication about a specific health goal, health concern, health risk, intervention outcome, associated plan and goal reviews or some diagnostic observation about the patient. The semantic links put the conversation in context.

Conversations will naturally form threads containing multiple communications about some topic.

Care team communications may also have optional multimedia support (attached photograph of video clip)


Preconditions

The receiving individual is in an active care team member for the associated patient.

Inputs

  • Patient
  • Scoping care plan, plan of care or treatment plan
  • Communication free form text content
  • Link to structured semantic context (e.g. Plan, HealthGoal, HealthConcern, Outcomes, Team Member, Reviews, ...)

Invite New Conversation Participants

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here

As a default conversations are private to the original participants. The invitation concept allows new participants to join the conversation.

An invitation may be sent by a conversation participant to a member who was not involved in the original thread. The invitation enables the new participant to follow the existing conversation thread and also respond to specific communication entries.

Preconditions

  • Invitation placer must be a participant in the existing conversation.
  • New conversation participant must already be a member of the care team

Inputs

  • Link to existing conversation
  • Role and Person details of the invitation placer
  • Role and Person details of invited participant(s)

Consolidation/Reconciliation Capability Set

These capabilities operate on multiple plans that are present in the same workspace.

Consolidate Plans Capability

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here


Produce a plan that is the superset of all plan items from the specified original plans.

Unlike the reconciliation capability, this capability actually creates a new resulting plan. As a safety precaution, the consolidation function does not overwrite any of its sources. The new plan may, as a separate operation, be made to overwrite one of the source plans.

Preconditions

Two or more plans have been included in the working set

Inputs

Reference to a working set that contains to two or more plans (the plans need not be structured yet)

Multi-level Override option (to allow consolidation even of plans at multiple levels). If this is not set then the server will consolidate items only of the same level (CPs with CPs, POCs with POCs, TPs with TPs)

Outputs

Reference to the newly created plan

Postconditions

A new plan has been created (but not activated). The original plans are not affected. The content of the new plan is the union of all plan items of the original plans.

Exception Conditions

Specified plans must be of same level (care plan, plan of care, or treatment plan) but override was not requested

Get Reconciliation Work List Capability

Capability Status

2-26-2012

Proposed

Reviewers Here

Given a set of plans or plan items, sort the items by item type (e.g. problems, interventions) and flag those item sets that are suspected as being redundant. This resulting structure could then be the basis for letting the user select the items to remove or to generate proposed removals.

The plans or plan items of concern could be at different levels or at the same level. For example, two "plans of care" are including medication for the same period for the same condition. As another example, a "care plan" and a "plan of care" show the same type of redundancy, but the POC has not been included under the CP.

Note that the CCS server, in order to avoid "false negatives" (falsely concluding that items are not redundant), must utilize terminology assets in order to detect whether an item A "covers" item B even if their concept codes are different (for example Tylenol and Acetaminophen are equivalent and hence to be suspected as redundant)

Preconditions

Plans of interest are in the working set, even if POCs are not yet linked under PCs

Inputs

Selections of the content to be considered (plan items or entire plans)

Outputs

An ordered collection of Sets of plan items (goals, barriers, interventions, etc.) with flags on items suspected as being redundant. For example, if the input plan items consisted of problems and goals, then the output would contain two major sets (problems and goals) with each major set listing nonredundant items of its type as well as "redundancy" groups for its type. In a "problems and medications" reconciliation, the medications major group might look like the following

Medications: (major group)

Ibuprofen (from POC a)

Redundant Group 1

    Tylenol         (from POC b)
    Acetaminophen   (from POC a)

Accolate (from POC b)

Postconditions

no effects (the reconciliation work list is delivered as output, but it is not presumed to be stored)

Exception Conditions

None

Included in Profiles

edit here

Outstanding Issues

Should this operation "provide the option" to generate proposed item removals? How would it know which items are the keepers. Perhaps at the workspace level the user (the client app) can set precedence rules (the "pecking order" to control what carries).

To Do: See HL7 Medication Statement Service (MSS) Profile, balloted in Sep 2012 for DSTU. The CCS output for this capability will be aligned with the MSS structure, but generalized so that reconciliation worksheets for other plan structures (e.g. problems) are supported.
