China Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 20104 |Why eHealth?l Health systems unable to deliver high-quality, affordable services with universal accessl Increasing time and effort needed for acquiring information and data as well as for administration and documentationl Critical health information buried in thick medical files and unsystematic data storage and retrieval systeml Specialisation & Sub-specialisationl New Diseasesl Increasing support to eHealththe next breakthrough in health systems improvement China Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 20105 |Global Cellular SubscriptionsChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 20106 |mHealth Apps: 9,000Phone Apps: 400,000 +Tablets: 12 million +Smartphones: 90 millionFeature Phones: 4.4 billionMobile Subscriptions: 5.3 billionHospitals: 270,000Midwives: 1.9 million +Hospital Beds: 20.9 millionHealth Workers: 40 million+ Households: 1.7 billion Population: 6.7 billion2010 Key Global StatisticsSource: mHealth AllianceChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 20107 |Scope of eHealth Services and Applicationse-e-LearningLearningTraining Coursee-Surveillancee-Surveillance eHealtheHealth GovernanceGovernancePatientsNursesSocietyWebsitesEmergenciesDisastersHealth ProfessionalsResearchJournalsHISIHRChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 20108 |WHOs Responsel Adoption of the World Health Assembly Resolution on eHealth (WHA58.21) in 2005 by WHO Member Statesl The eHealth resolution gave legitimacy to the concept itself but also defined: the scope of eHealth the potential stakeholders the role of governments and the private sector the need for legal, ethical and regulatory frameworks for its implementationl Catalyzed recognition of the role of eHealth in: strengthening health systems improving health services reaching out to remote communities enhancing the capacity of health workforce health promotionChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 20109 |eHealth Global Uptakel WHO Global Observatory of eHealth and the eHealth Intelligence Report: http:/www.who.int/goe/ehir/en/ l First Global eHealth survey, 2005: Benchmarking Comparison between countries Hard data and evidence on progress made.l Second Global eHealth survey, 2009: More in-depth analysis Included eight thematic areas: mHealth, Telemedicine, Management of patient information, Legal and ethical frameworks for eHealth, eHealth policies, eHealth foundation actions, eLearning and country profiles.China Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201010 |Most Commonly Reported mHealth Initiatives in GOel 50% in emergency/disaster situationsl 50% in health call centre or healthcare telephone helplinel 45% for surveillance programsl 40% for voice/text messages to achieve treatment compliancel A number of countries highlighted using mHealth for HIV/AIDS and maternal health servicesChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201011 |eHealth Value StackTime/Maturity of ServicesBenefits to Participants/providersInformationInteractionTransactionIntegrationTransformationCommunication SystemsHealth and wellness content; messagingInformation SystemsBi-directional communicationManagement SystemsIdentity, security, audit; payments; health systems managementDecision Support SystemsEnhanced health, clinical and administrative decision-makingExpert SystemsIntelligent cross-platform solutionsSource: mHealth AllianceChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201012 |The Grand Challenges to eHealthlOrganizational and governance challengeslTechnical challengeslFinancial challengeslLegal and ethical challengeslLocal challenges based on differences in healthcare systems, culture, economy, regulations, policies, ICT infrastructure, and human resourcesChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201013 |Global and National Governance of eHealthl Code of ethicsl Multi-sectoral coordinationl Human resources development l Standardizationl Interoperabilityl Charters and frameworksl Collaboration and partnershipsChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201014 |Awareness and Accessamong eHealth End UserslValue of ICT in health not fully recognizedleHealth typically not high on national health prioritieslEvaluation of eHealth has concentrated mainly on pilot projectslThere is often a communications gap between health and ICT professionals lChina is a unique exceptionwith strong political will and excellent leadership to continue maximizing health outcomes with increasing use of eHealth solutionslChinas world-class eHealth solutions and outstanding experience should be shared with the rest of the worldChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201015 |Technical Competenciesof Health Professionals lHealthcare professionals usually do not receive ICT training. Their understanding of it comes late in their career. lICT professionals are mainly hardware and software engineers with little orientation on biomedical applications. lThere is a need for in-service training and continuous education are missing in the area of health informatics. lThis is challenged by having very few specialized health informatics programmes.lPromote peer-to-peer learning and sharing within and between countries:China Health Informatics Society (CHIS)International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA): http:/www.imia-medinfo.orgChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201016 |Standardization and Systems Interoperability ChallengeslFragmented efforts to develop eHealth applications in the absence of adequate governance, standards and national plans resulted in development of eHealth systems that cannot exchange data.lThese systems are mainly standalone and disintegrated, lacking unified coding schemes, following different or no standards which resulted in total lack of interoperability between them.China Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201017 |WHO eHealth Standardization Coordination Group (eHSCG)l Platform to promote stronger coordination amongst the key players in all technical areas of eHealth standardization.l Place for exchange of information on standards: Identify areas where further standardization is required Provide guidance for implementations and case studies Consider the requirements for appropriate development paths for health profiles of existing standards Support activities to increase user awareness of the existing standards, and case studiesl eHealth Standards List: http:/www.who.int/ehscg/resources/en/ehscg_standards_list.pdf China Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201018 |Two Examples:HL7 and SDMX-HDl Health Level 7 (HL7) Data exchange/messaging standard primarily for patient-based transactional systems within a health system EMR, Laboratory, Rx, Billing, Immunization, maternal health, othersl Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange Health Domain (SDMX-HD) Intended to be part of national HIS and M&E infrastructure strengthening strategy, facilitating seamless flow of information from facility to district, national, and international levels Contains a data structure definition (DSD), which defines concepts, dimensions, attributes, code-lists and other artefacts necessary to describe the structure of data Defines attributes of a data items, which reduces the negotiation required to exchange data between information systemsChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201019 |China Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201020 |Public Health Informatics Innovationsl Communication among geographically dispersed health workers and consumersl Strengthening and streamlining data collectionl Implementing standards and promoting interoperabilityl Disease prevention via electronic health records and improved lab systemsl Data collection for research and evaluationChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201021 |WHO Collaborating Centre for Health Informaticsl Work planning and application submission/review process underway now to establish the Chinese Centre for Health Statistics and Information (CHSI) as a new WHO Collaborating Centrel Areas of focus may include: Improving vital statistics and monitoring & evaluation systems Building capacity in health informatics Developing and implementing standards Evaluating eHealth solutions and demonstrating success Sharing and learning from experience in Chinal The rest of the world is eager to learn more from ChinaChina Health Informatics Society Annual Conference | December 8-9, 201022 |Can eHealth Save Livesand Improve Health?Yesl Could be directly, could be indirectly, to the individual and to the society.
