Why is it Important to Act Globally? Contagious/infectious diseases do not recognize regional or international borders; they always find a way to sneak in ; The world population and individuals mobility are on the increase; Although knowledge generation is not homogeneous throughout the Regions, good and creative examples come from everywhere; Collaboration and experience exchange are crucial if redundant work is to be avoided; Global Health Information Standards are essential if systems across the world are to interoperate; Global collaboration is essential. Are we ready to face an outbreak of a pandemic disease? What are the ehealth requirements for facing such an outbreak? When will we be ready? 5
Important Global Ongoing Activities IMIA WHO Collaboration (http://wp.me/pvcus-v5) WHO has provided the vehicle, guidance and methods IMIA has provided coordination and knowledge The project has counted on funding from PEPFAR and IDRC 6
Other Preliminary Work IMIA JIC Collaboration Joint Initiative on SDO Global Health Informatics Standardization Current participants are ISO/TC215, HL7, CEN/TC251, CDISC, IHSTDO and GS1 It is difficult for emerging countries to take part in the standards World; IMIA believes we can leverage countries participation via IMIA Working Groups, especially those on Education, Health Informatics for Development and Standards; This is an initiative that can change the World of ehealth. 7

Strong Conviction It is impossible to deliver services to thousands and millions of people using craft production methods; Industrial production processes must be used if we are to provide millions of people with good health services; ehealth can: improve quality, reduce costs, optimize the use of resources, and extend the reach of health services 10
Self-Assigned Mission Here To discuss ways by which HIS can be useful, long lasting, flexible and moreover SUSTAINABLE. Pla n D o Maturity Level Ac Incremental and iterative! t Che ck 11
Why the concern with Architectures for ehealth? The vast majority of emerging and resource-impoverished countries: Do not have national ehealth policies; Have vertical health information systems for diseases such as AIDS, Malaria and TB, often donor-funded; Lack proper Human Resources for Health Informatics; Do not have access to standards; Do not appreciate the complexity of national ehealth infrastructure.

Enterprise-Wide ehealth PC Units Evidences Medical Centers Suppliers Hospitals The Cloud Clients Labs & Diag Centers FHP Team s Management & Operation Datacenter The HC Enterprise Interoperability with External Systemas 13
Interoperability of HIS No single Health Information System can encompass all the requirements of a Health Enterprise; Diversity is Good! Some things will always happen outside the reach of the Health Enterprise and its HIS; Therefore, HISes need to Interoperate : Interoperability is the ability of two or more systems to exchange information and to use the information that has been exchanged (IEEE); The only way to interoperate is by sticking to standards. 14

SIGA Saúde São Paulo City Health Information System SIGA Saúde is São Paulo City Integrated and Distributed System for Managing the Public Health Care System. It was conceived in 2003 and development began in 2004. The system belongs to São Paulo City, which is willing to share it with other cities, states and countries. Uses free-software & open-code concepts. 19

Key Identification within the Country Identify People Uniquely Individuals, patients, health workers Identify Health Workers Uniquely All types of workers and their profiles Identify Health Organizations Uniquely Who they are and what they do What they have (equipment) Identify Relationships Among Them Who works where and when and in which role National Registries: Can organize the Referral and CounterReferral Model, and provide answers to who attended whom and where 21
SIGA Saúde Figures, 2011 17 MM registered users 1.5 MM primary care scheduling / month 200 MM specialized care consultations / month Over 2 MM prescriptions attended over the counter / month 70,000 scheduling requests processed / day 35,000 authorizations of high cost & complexity procedures / month 30% reduction in the waiting time for specialized consultations & procedures Medication available at local pharmacies - supply chain control. 22

Major Challenges Technical Difficulties Labs don t know much about standards LOINC is a comprehensive and thus complex terminology Project Complexity SP City Dept of Health hires the Clinical Lab Services, with the condition that Clinical Labs hired Zilics to develop the system, but The Dept of Health is responsible for managing the project, however They are NOT experts on the subject, and They rely on Prodam (the Datacenter Company), which, in turn Rely on Zilics, which is paid by the Clinical Labs, which work at different paces Governance is the Major Issue WHO s going to take care of LOINC in Brazil? And HOW? LOINC is NOT an ISO Standard! How to avoid having N versions of LOINC in Brazil? Solution under study: SBIS as the Coordinating Body for that effort. 42
