Overview

C4.11
Data access – Going global


Details

Day two will see standards and interoperability stream come together with senior leaders in CXIO and International Policy Forum sessions to focus on the significant global initiative – International Patient Summary (IPS). The IPS is an electronic record extract containing essential healthcare information to support ‘unplanned, cross border care’, but not limited to that. We have all been in situation overseas where this happens or potentially happens. Look at the work that has been completed to date, the policy imperatives, ties to citizen centric services and other relevant topics. This day will go from strategic overview into more detailed discussion on the IPS.

Learning outcomes:
  • Understand what is meant by IPS and International Patient Access
  • Understand what the core components are of the IPS
  • Understand the global policy position on the IPS
  • Understand what a Core FHIR Implementation Guide and its relationship is to an IPS
  • Understand how different countries are progressing with implementing the IPS
  • Understand where to go for more resources to get started.

  • The International Patient Summary (IPS) is a standard for sharing essential health information and supported by global programs for digital health, such as the Global Digital Health Partnership (GDHP). The IPS was also endorsed by the G7 and G20 as key focus for interoperability. The IPS is a Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) document standard and establishes how structured data can be shared worldwide using controlled vocabularies and terminologies such as LOINC and SNOMED CT.

    Supported by CSIRO, HL7 Australia, HL7 International, SNOMED International, and IHE Australia you will meet the experts and the ability to ask the questions direct to those in the know.

    Buy a one-day, two-day, or full conference delegate pass to get yourself there. There is plenty on offer. You will be challenged by choice.
