Presentation from Daniel Bennett, eCitizen Foundation: tinyurl.com/kantarawgv2
Meaningful use - give Ray Campbell credit advising us to provide meaningful use, needed in the short-term, looking to resolve stimulus documents, we need to relate this project to providers.

eCitizen Foundation propose that this pilot will seek to solve where and how patient identity, control of accounts and transaction authentication exist in an open architecture. Consistent with the principles of technical and vendor neutrality, this solution will enable an open and competitive marketplace.

The patient requesting their health information may seek:

  • Diagnostic test results,
  • Problem list,
  • Medication lists,
  • Allergies,
  • Other health information

In the case of test results, Phase One of our collaboration could focus upon the graphing of results over time with data visualization tools. The particular information to be included in the use case will be determined in Phase One.

Proposed Collaboration and Work Plan
On February 25, 2010, the Healthcare Identity Assurance Work Group approved agreeing to work together on a joint proposal to have eCitizen Foundation design and conduct phase one of a pilot project to demonstrate an open architecture for patient identity.

Phase One:
eCitizen and Kantara jointly develop steering committee.
Steering committee create a proposal and "pitch" to funders.
Requirements and Constraints Gathering ($15,000)
Design/Build Working Model and Project Demo ($20,000)
Report and Video of Project and Pilot Plan ($05,000)

Phase Two:
Proposal for Pilot
Recruit participants and complete Pilot

Open architecture, Identity in an open, reusable way.

How are the permissions gathered? NHIN supports exchange of XML file of consumer preferences between HIEs, this has not been implemented by anyone. We model authentication and exchange.

Patient has portal with Health provider, they can access records, go somewhere else, want to link back to their original healthcare provider. The identity issues are already solved, the providers have provided credential management. How does the person make a link to the other location. Patient has info uploaded. There is a service authenticating the service, how do you link them at that portal to the health provider?

3. # Funding Steering Committee

ACTION20100318-01: Rick Moore proposed to form a funding steering committee to draft a proposed proposal to come to the WG. John Fraser will prepare a proposal for review and approval on next call.

  • Purpose for the group to develop a workplan, timeline, deliverables for the project. HIA WG leadership will recruit a committee, the initial committee are comprised of co-chairs, Daza Greenwood, Daniel Bennett, a Board of Trustees (BoT) representative plus key volunteers who are willing to make calls to request funding. With eCitzen Foundation & Kantara Initiative BoT approval, the HIA WG funding steering committee will begin pitching the workplan for external funding.
  • Note, proposal and funding needs to go through the Board of Trustees for any funding issues.
  • Daza would like to recommend including David Temoshok of GSA to collaborate on the project to provide scope and input.
