Abstract The lack of data is ot a problem today. The advet of Electroic Health Records (EHR) ad regulatios such as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has resulted i billios of terabytes of data for payers ad providers. Makig effective use of this data however ca be a huge challege. The data deluge has opeed up may challeges related to orgaizig, maagig, ad sharig healthcare data across the care cotiuum. Much of the critical iformatio is fragmeted ad spread across differet departmets ad systems i multiple formats. This makes it difficult to itegrate cliical data with fiacial ad operatioal data to gai a holistic picture. Trasitioig to data-cetric healthcare requires a strog focus o buildig the foudatio for a robust iformatio maagemet ifrastructure. Data models serve as blueprits to idetify the structures ecessary to desig a operatioal data store, data ware house, or data marts. They also facilitate data services, itegratio, ad exchage as well as developmet of aalytics platforms that cater to the uique eeds of the healthcare eviromet. They eable the extractio of actioable itelligece from data to improve stakeholder outcomes through a more cost efficiet ad higher quality healthcare delivery system. This white paper reviews three idustry leadig data models from IBM, Oracle, ad Teradata, that ca be used by payers, providers, ad Pharmacy Beefit Maagemet (PBM) compaies i their data modelig iitiatives. These models have bee reviewed i the cotext of the Federal Health Architecture (FHA), the Federal Health Iformatio Maagemet (FHIM) model, ad the Domai-Drive Desig (DDD) cocept. Choosig the right data model ca help healthcare orgaizatios obtai deeper strategic ad operatioal isights to realize data drive healthcare improvemets ad further their cost optimizatio efforts.

Desigig data models: A blueprit for healthcare itelligece Today, there is a compellig eed to use the available healthcare data i better ways to drive superior patiet ad busiess outcomes. However, the iformatio flow i the healthcare ecosystem is turig icreasigly complex, as show i Figure 1. The growig flood of ustructured iformatio further complicates the matter, makig extractio ad maagemet of iformatio a top priority.

With icreasig emphasis o providig itegrated ad persoalized care, healthcare data models have become key to drivig efficiet data exchage ad iteroperability across the healthcare commuity ad govermet healthcare programs (see figure 2). Several idustry stadards support the overarchig visio of creatig a iteroperable ecosystem to improve the exchage of health data amog stakeholders. The Federal Health Architecture (FHA) started i 2004 is oe such iitiative. It ecompasses stakeholders such as the federal govermet, private sector healthcare providers, ad others. The FHA is curretly maaged by the Office of the Natioal Coordiator for Health IT (ONC) withi the Departmet of Health ad Huma Services (HHS). FHA aims to improve access to ad quality of care while reducig overall healthcare costs by focusig o the followig1: Supportig federal efforts to deploy stadardized health IT systems ad measure health IT stadard adoptio. Esurig that federal agecies ca seamlessly exchage health data amog themselves as well as with the state, local, ad tribal govermets, ad private-sector parters. Providig guidace to federal agecies o how best to maage ad maitai health IT ivestmets. The Federal Health Iformatio Model: A stadard for supportig healthcare iteroperability The Federal Health Iformatio Model (FHIM) is a iformatio model of healthcare data developed for the FHA parter agecies. The FHIM seeks to support health iteroperability by harmoizig iformatio from federal parters ad stadards developmet orgaizatios (SDOs) ito a uified, logical, health iformatio model. This logical model uses the HL7 Referece Iformatio Model (RIM) as its referece poit. It is desiged to support multiple Office of Iteroperability ad Stadards iitiatives, icludig CONNECT ad the Stadards ad Iteroperability (S&I) Framework2. The FHIM is a Iformatio model ad ot a data model. Usually, data models are meat to be implemeted, whereas iformatio models are higher level specificatios. A iformatio model is like a buildig blueprit. It defies metadata types that are stored i a repository database ad used by tools ad applicatios. The FHIM is desiged to eable meaigful iformatio exchage amog the parter agecies as well as exterally, with the broader health commuity. Its key features iclude: Itegratio with Model Drive Health Tools (MDHT) to support a Model Drive Architecture (MDA) approach for the developmet of health iformatio exchage iteroperability specificatios. Use of the Uified Modelig Laguage (UML) - that describes the health-related iformatio eeded by the FHA federal parter orgaizatios - for model developmet A sematic iformatio base for iformatio exchage, traceability, ad aligmet with idustry iformatio models ad stadards. Suitability as a Logical Iformatio Model to guide the eterprise architecture of the federal parter orgaizatios. 1] Healthit.gov, Federal Health Architecture, accessed, Jue 2015, https://www.healthit.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/fact-sheets/federal-health-architecture.pdf 2] Healthit.gov, Federal Health Architecture, accessed, Jue 2015, https://www.healthit.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/fact-sheets/federal-health-architecture.pdf 7
Domai Drive Desig: A best practice for emphasizig core domai cocepts A domai is a sphere of kowledge, ifluece or activity. With respect to FHIM, it is a subject area i healthcare such as allergies, vitals, or orders. Domai-Drive Desig (DDD) is a coceptual model of a domai of iterest that describes the various etities, their attributes, roles ad relatioships. Data models ecompass etities ad their relatioships, while domai models idetify how these etities iteract with each other to make these actios a itegral part of etities behavioral specificatios. It also describes the costraits that gover the itegrity of the model elemets comprisig that problem domai. As a approach to developig software for complex eeds, DDD places the project's primary focus o the core domai ad domai logic. It supports collaboratio betwee techical ad domai experts to get closer to the coceptual heart of the busiess challege i this case - providig health iformatio isights. I the followig sectio, we look at three idustry-leadig data models that eable the seamless flow of iformatio betwee stakeholders i the healthcare ecosystem to deliver patiet-cetric ad accoutable care.

As opposed to proprietary eterprise data models, pre-built idustry models ca help reduce the time ad resources required to build a proprietary eterprise data model. The IBM Healthcare Data Model facilitates ehaced data goverace ad stadardizatio to defie a corporate set of stadard best practices related to healthcare data. It also offers service lie aalytics. Healthcare orgaizatios lookig for a sigle vedor solutio ca leverage Oracle s Healthcare Data Model. It eables data miig ad supports forecastig to predict ad maage healthcare outcomes. The Teradata Healthcare Model is a party cetric model, which itegrates the fiacial etities such as claims ad paymets. It supports seamless itegratio ad provides icreased flexibility for aalysis. All of these models offer predictable implemetatio, reduced deploymet risks ad faster time to value, while eablig a cost efficiet ad higher quality healthcare delivery system. Turig the data oslaught ito competitive advatage Deliverig high quality healthcare is a iformatio itesive effort, ad orgaizatios must evolve their data maagemet approach to match the chagig ad complex eeds of the idustry. Moreover, with healthcare data growig i volume, velocity, ad variety, the ability to leverage Big Data to derive isights has become a importat competitive differetiator. The chose data model must therefore be robust eough to support the curret eeds while beig scalable to address future requiremets. Healthcare orgaizatios that idetify the right data model for their uique eeds will gai a truly comprehesive approach to healthcare itelligece, resultig i competitive advatage. 13
