3 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 Introduction The PA ehealth Partnership Authority, hereafter referred to as the Authority, conducted a survey in October and November of 2013 in order to determine the current environment for Health Information Organization (HIO)* efforts within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This survey refreshes information gathered in similar surveys completed in 2011 and The previous survey results gave all stakeholders a clear picture of what HIO activities were already underway and planned in the Commonwealth and helped facilitate the development of the Authority s strategic and operational plans. This year 14 organizations were invited to participate. The list of participants was based on last year s list and input from the Authority staff and stakeholders. Eleven organizations responded. Two of last year s responding organizations did not participate this year, but two new HIOs did participate. The results of the survey are included in this document, with one of the new HIOs choosing not to be identified. This HIO is hereafter referred to as HIO A. The survey consisted of 276 questions covering the following five categories: Operations and Technology Communications, Outreach and Research Finance Legal Hospital Engagement Each section of this report begins with a table summarizing the results. An increase in 2013 to 2014 results is shown in green in the rates columns. A decrease in 2013 to 2014 results is shown in red in the rates columns. If the 2013 to 2014 results are the same, then the results are shown in black. Certain portions of the information gathered are of a proprietary nature and therefore have been omitted from this report. * There has been considerable confusion resulting from the fact that the acronym HIE (Health Information Exchange) can be used both as a verb and as a noun. In an effort to alleviate this confusion in the future, the Authority has adopted a standard of using ehie to describe the activity while using the term health information organization (HIO) to describe organizations. The Authority will apply this convention in this and all future reports, but will not adjust previously published reports. Page 3 of 20

5 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 Key Findings 1. For a third year in a row, all responding HIOs are supporting exchange of discharge summaries and provider-to-provider clinical messaging. Other strongly adopted functions include longitudinal medical records and order/lab results delivery. 2. The least adopted functions appear to be those already supported by EMR systems such as computerized physician order entry and e-prescribing. 3. While push (including DIRECT) methods are becoming more popular for many use cases, query-based exchange is also increasing. 4. There is a clear increase in the adoption of standards for structure and vocabulary across Pennsylvania s HIOs. 5. All provider types included in the survey will be served by at least two HIOs by the end of 2014 and at least six HIOs by the end of All responding HIOs plan to offer services to hospitals, primary care practices and specialty practices. 7. There was a very large increase in the number of primary care practices participating in HIE (2,205 now, up from 476 in 2012), but a large drop in the number of specialists reported.* 8. Most other provider types show steady or slightly increased participation. 9. As of this survey, there is at least one HIO providing service in every county in the Commonwealth, with planned coverage by at least three in every county. 10. At least six HIOs now plan coverage in each of the areas surrounding Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Harrisburg. 11. Planned interstate connection is increasing and all HIOs plan to connect with other PA HIOs. 12. Adoption of business associate agreements and data use and reciprocal support agreements is increasing. 13. The leading legal issues of concern to HIOs remain monitoring for internal compliance and release of super protected information. Readiness of EHRs to handle date segmentation is a rapidly rising concern. 14. The most common sources of planned HIO sustainability funding remain hospital participant fees, payer participant fees, and state grants. 15. A little over half of responding HIOs have a sustainability plan in place. 16. There is an upward trend for communication material that is aimed at patients. * Some year-to-year changes are of sufficient magnitude that they beg the question of the reason for the change. The Authority will conduct further inquiry in these cases and publish our findings in a supplement to this report. Page 5 of 20

7 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 HIO Function Findings The functions most frequently adopted include: o Discharge summaries o Longitudinal medical records o Master patient index o Order/Lab result delivery o Provider to provider clinical messaging o Role based access control For a third year in a row, 100% of the responding HIOs reported that they currently have the ability or are working on the ability to exchange discharge summaries and provider-to-provider clinical messages. The functions least frequently adopted include: o Computerized physician order entry/lab o Enrollment/eligibility verification o eprescribing These low areas of adoption suggest that HIOs are focusing less on areas that can already be handled by electronic health record (EHR) systems. The five HIOs that reported the highest number of functional use cases were Lancaster General (21), (19), Highmark (17), KeyHIE (17) and (17). Most changes in year-to-year rates are accounted for in the change in the population of HIOs participating in the survey. Those functions with the most significant declines include: Active care coordination Quality/safety analysis and reporting Page 7 of 20

Legend DIRECT Push (other than DIRECT) Query Both push and query No answer or not applicable D P Q B Page 8 of 20
9 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 Participants were given the following choices: DIRECT Push via the DIRECT protocol, frequently via a HISP. Push - other than DIRECT Data is pushed from one provider to another either manually or via some automated process (i.e. scheduled or event-based). Query Allows the user to pull data on demand from the HIO. Both push and query A combination of push and query methods. Note that HIOs did not provide this data for every use case they identified as planned or currently provided in Table 1. Note that non-answers and answers of not applicable are both left blank in the summary table. Delivery Methods Findings The following table shows the summary of the delivery method findings for those HIOs who responded both last year and this year (HIO A and excluded): Delivery Method 2012 Total 2013 Total Total % Change DIRECT % Push (other than DIRECT) % Query % Both push and query % Push and DIRECT have supplanted query as the preferred delivery method for many use cases. This is partially due to more robust reporting in this section of the survey this year, but also likely due to the relative maturity of the technology and the fact that it is a relatively lowcost option accessible to smaller practices. The decrease in query is offset by an increase in both push and query. Eight of 11 participants plan to offer some level of query functionality, up from only seven of eleven last year. Page 9 of 20
10 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 Structure and Vocabulary Standards For the 2013 survey, the Authority s technical staff was asked for their input regarding the current standards being used in the industry compared to the baseline of what was asked in the 2012 survey. After careful consideration, it was decided that the Authority would keep the same questions as the previous year. The following table summarizes the collected data. Blanks in Table 3 indicate either no response was provided or a reply of not applicable.

A few notable points are: CCD, HL7, ICD-9/10 and LOINC are being used by all the HIOs responding to the question. The overall level of adoption has increased for each category. The change in the overall landscape suggests that there is greater cohesion in the state and more uniformity in the marketplace. Page 10 of 20
11 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 Participating Providers The HIOs were asked with which types of providers they are currently connecting and which types they planned for future connections. If the HIOs planned connection in the future, then they were asked to specify which year that was projected to start. Table 4 shows the results. Rates include both those currently connected and those planned to connect.

All the HIOs are planning expansion of participant categories. Based on this information, the least-served provider types by the end of 2014 will be ambulatory surgery centers and independent imaging centers. Page 11 of 20
12 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2014 Summary of Providers Actively Signed Up For each provider type that was listed in the survey, the HIOs were asked to list how many active providers they had signed up. When reviewing the data in Table 5, it is important to note that the number of participants is based on only some of the respondents filling in this portion of the survey. Table HIO Survey Results Totals by Participant Type Participant Type 2012 Totals 2013 Totals Ambulance/EMS services 3 2 Ambulatory surgery centers 2 2 Community clinical/fqhc 1 2 Home health 2 28 Hospitals 1,329 1,344 Independent imaging centers 1 1 Independent reference laboratories 1 0 Long-term care facilities* Mental health/substance abuse facilities 0 8 Other diagnostic service centers 0 3 Outpatient cancer treatment centers 2 7 Payer 2 1 Physical therapy/occupational therapy practices 0 1 Primary care physician practices* 476 2,205 Rehab centers 3 4 Specialist physician practices* 1, Urgent care centers 2 1 Findings for Providers Actively Signed Up The number of hospitals is based on 44 hospitals being reported from the HIOs and Lancaster General having access to 1,300 hospitals via EPIC s Care program. There was a significant increase in the total number of primary care practices, but a significant drop in the total number of specialists. The Authority will follow up to better understand this change and provide an update in a supplement to this report. The other major year-to-year change is the increase in participation by longterm care facilities and home health providers. Page 12 of 20

16 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2013 Health Information Organization Survey Service Coverage Area Findings In 2012, two HIEs planned to operate statewide. One of these no longer exists, but two others, and Lancaster General, have joined Highmark in intentions for statewide coverage. One other, KeyHIE, continues to plan to operate in most, but not all counties. All responding HIOs are intending to expand their geographic area of coverage, except Lancaster General, which is already active statewide. Last year all counties in the state were covered by at least two HIOs. This year all the counties in the state will have at least three HIOs from which to choose. The densest HIO planned coverage continues to be in the area around Philadelphia, with six to nine HIOs covering each county in the region. Additional pockets of overlap by at least six planned HIOs have emerged in the areas near Harrisburg and Pittsburgh. Page 16 of 20

All HIOs are either currently exchanging with other HIOs or plan to connect with other PA HIOs. Lancaster General s current connections are based on access to EPIC s Care program. The program allows Lancaster General to exchange data with any other EPIC Care Program participant nationwide. Other Operational Questions Each survey respondent was asked a series of operational questions to help understand their intention and direction. A few interesting items of note were: Four of the HIOs currently operate a HISP and three additional HIOs plan to operate a HISP. Of the four HIOs that operate a HISP, only one is currently certified with the Authority and one is currently in the process of certifying. With the exception of Saint Luke s, all the other HIOs are planning to create functionality to support non-electronic practices. Page 17 of 20
18 PA ehealth Partnership Authority February 2013 Health Information Organization Survey Legal - Consent Management, Individually Identifiable Information and Legal Agreements Responders were asked specific questions regarding the legal framework surrounding their HIO operations. Due to the sensitivity of this information, the answers are shown only in aggregate this year. The following summarizes answers for the key questions that were asked. The majority of the responding HIOs use both business associate agreements (BAA) and data use and reciprocal support agreements (DURSA). These are used as templates to establish the legal framework that governs medical information within their organization. The adoption of these instruments has increased since % percent of HIOs replied that they have the ability to audit what person was looking at specific information within a medical record, and produce logs that are periodically audited. While 55% of HIOs stated that patients have the ability to decide how their data is being used, almost none provide patients with the ability to invoke specific restrictions on how much of their information is made available for medical records sharing. A total of 64% of the respondents have patient-facing information to tell them how their data is used and disclosed. Page 18 of 20

Despite fewer HIOs planning to leverage hospitals and payors for sustainability funding compared with last year, the most common sources of planned sustainability funding remain hospital participant fees, payer participant fees, and state grants. Only a little over half of the HIOs have a sustainability plan in place. The decrease in the number of HIOs who have a sustainability plan is due to the new HIOs in the market place. Page 19 of 20
