3. Discussion with e Citizen Foundation about leading our effort to build our Citizen Portal as per our Charter

Daza Greenwood & Daniel Bennett from e Citizen Foundation presented an additional recap of their service and outlined a proposal.  

A HIE to HIE connection level is used. Providing a service over NHIN who have their own PKI & SAML is incorportated.  We wouldn't try to reinvent and look at IAF as a model. They use the BLT (Business, Legal and Technology) methodology to make sure this works which includes encryption.

The focus is on the patient, consumer and eCitizen level.  We assume the B2B model is unchangeable and exists already in a software package.   Use open public integrated architecture, elements that require higher level of assurance, we have enough tools to go back to GSA, etc. to consider incorporating as a new model.

Can we support various models of authentication?  If we do it correctly we can build a framework that can be added.  We are liable to the architecture working seamlessly and that it actually works.  We need to design with privacy and security in mind (goes beyond authentication, including storage and data incription).

We need to make sure the architecture can support multiple services and start with level 3.  If we don't architect as a privacy patient system, we will run into trouble.  We would like HIE stakeholders, e.g. CVS and Walgreens to advise.

In order to engage eCitizens, we need to raise funds for the project, and ask for volunteers.

ACTION2010-0204-01: Leadership to firm up use cases and send to list serve.  Continue the discussion regarding implications on the next call, Feb. 18.

Budget for this new project is $15-20,000.  Consider this and brainstorm for next call what we come up with in terms of recruitment for the component and fundraising ideas.
