Agenda• Introduction• Goal of Pilot• DAF Capabilities to Be Piloted • Pilot Approach• Standards and Technologies Under Consideration• Ecosystem• Defining Success• Logistics
Introduction• Lincoln Peak is the technology company that developed PopMedNet. We host
and support a number of PopMedNet based networks including:– PCORI’s PCORnet comparative effectiveness research network– FDA Sentinel post-market surveillance network– NIH Collaboratory basic research network– MDPHnet public health network for State of Massachusetts– CDRN’s using PopMedNet for the their local networks
• The PopMedNet is a distributed research network platform that:– Enables large scale research amongst institutions without comingling provider data – Contains a granular and comprehensive authorization system that allows for a distributed
governance approach to policy implementation – Adaptable / Interoperable with analytic tools and data sources
• Lincoln Peak has worked with ONC on a number of pilots.• Pilot Leads
• Bruce Swan, Lincoln Peak CTO, Engagement Manager: [email protected]• Bill Clark, Lincoln Peak Senior Architect/Developer: [email protected]• Dean Corriveau, Lincoln Peak Senior Architect/Developer: [email protected]
Goal of Pilot• Design and implement DAF/FHIR capabilities described in the DAF Phase 3
initiative for PCORnet in a pilot environment using PopMedNet as the reference application.
• As developers of distributed research networking technology, Lincoln Peak is seeks to:– Provide low cost and efficient ways to onboard DataMarts to the distributed research
networks it supports. – Minimize the latency between data refreshes to support “rapid cycle” research.
• DAF/FHIR promises to provide a path to achieve this goal. Support of DAF/FHIR by EHR providers:– Lowers the effort and costs for data providers to prepare “research ready” data resources
required to participate in networks. – By standardizing the steps to create, harmonize, and validate data sources around common
data models and potentially allow more direct access to the sources of data
DAF Capabilities to Be Piloted• Lincoln Peak will intends to work with the DAF/FHIR team to design and
implement FHIR interfaces to support C2-C6.
Capability Description:
C1Standardize data extraction mechanism from clinical data sources to populate data marts.
C2 Standardize metadata about data marts, CDRN’s, PPRN’s and data sources.
C3 Standardize Query Distribution mechanism.
C4 Standardize Query Results for returning aggregate data.
C5 Standardize Query Results for returning de-identified or identified patient data.
C6 Standardize Query Structure and Queries for identifying cohorts/populations.
Pilot Approach• Lincoln Peak will work with ONC and participating PCORI CDRN representatives
to:– Extend and leverage the FHIR standards developed in DAF Phase 1 and 2 for use in accessing
data from multiple organizations within PopMedNet. – Uniquely qualified to assist the project team as the architects and developers of PopMedNet,
the distributed research application used to power PCORI, – Design and implement DAF capabilities using PopMedNet as the reference implementation.
• Lincoln Peak uses an Agile approach to software development. As such, – We will focus on achieving a successful end-to-end test implementation of sending queries to
FHIR enabled DataMarts as quickly as possible. – This may result in an iterative approach in developing the capabilities declared in the initiative
and/or re-prioritizing the order we execute them.
Standards & Technologies Under Consideration• Lincoln Peak plans to address C2-C6 and will design and integrate these
capabilities into a current version of PopMedNet that may deployed to PCORnet.
• Leverage existing FHIR resources and API.
• Seek support and review in developing new FHIR resources and API extensions to ensure compliance with style and objectives of FHIR standards.
• As developers of PopMedNet and members of the PCORnet DSSNI task force, Lincoln Peak works with the coordinating center and individual CDRNs to address issues that surface within the networks as well as their own PopMedNet instances.
• Lincoln Peak provides assistance to a number of the CDRN’s including pSCANNER, Capricorn, and PORTAL.
• Lincoln Peak uses a continuous integration process to manage PopMedNet source and deploy builds. Additionally, Lincoln Peak uses JIRA within an Agile environment to track user stories and defects. These resources are available to support the pilot project
.
Ecosystem
• We will outline our deliverables in a design document and presentation we will present to the team.
• Given our Agile approach to developing software, we advise an incremental approach to addressing the goals and capabilities identified for the pilot.
• We believe an end-to-end test of each capability would be desirable.
• In our role on the DAF/FHIR pilot, we will work with PCORI CDRN participants to address their concerns and answer questions they may have in supporting DAF/FHIR as it relates to PopMedNet and their use of DataMart client application in the network.
• As part of our proposal to work on the pilot, we will work with team members to document the APIs and processes used to implement the DAF/capabilities.
Defining Success
• We’ll overlap the design tasks with implementation of each capability. The project will be separated into two phases, with C2, C3, and C4 in Phase 1 and C5 & C6 in Phase 2.
• Timeline• February – Project orientation, develop high level design/approach• March – Design C2 - C4, start implementation tasks• April – Complete implementation C2 - C4, design C5-C6• May – Complete C5-C6, integration testing• June to July — Deployment and Pilot support

• On September 23, 2015, Health Level Seven® International (HL7®) published Release 2 of the HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) Draft Standard for Trial Use (DSTU). Additionally, we are pleased to announce that the DAF FHIR Implementation Guide, a US-realm specific implementation guide, has also been published!! The DAF FHIR IG identifies and recommends standards for the interoperable representation and transmission of data using the notion of a Query Stack which modularizes the various layers of the Data Access Framework.
DAF Document Metadata Based Access IG (IHE)• On September 24, 2015, the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE)
Patient Care Coordination (PCC) Technical Committee published The Data Access Framework (DAF) Document Metadata Based Access Implementation Guide. This US National Extension provides requirements and guidance on accessing clinical documents created during clinical workflows. The guide accomplishes this using RESTful resources based on HL7 FHIR® and the more traditional SOAP based IHE Profiles.
