This is a place to capture implementation notes concerning the projects that the OpenHIE and DUC Communities are hearing about. The information is captured based upon the information that was understood at the time of capture. We know it is not perfect, but the intent is to help provide an idea of what is going on in the field. We welcome your additions/ changes / updates. You must be logged into add to or update the log and revisions are being tracked. The projects may be sorted by clicking on the column headings. OpenIMIS linked with the payment system and medical report systems. Also linkage with DHIS2 and dashboards. Community-based micro UHC OpenIMIS linked to EMRs. Components include a TERMINOLOGY SERVICE (OCL), Have a CLIENT REGISTRY(OpenCR),rINTEROPERABILITY LAYER.

SNOMED CT INTEROPERABILITY LAYER EMRs connect to a central repository through an INTEROPERABILITY LAYER. Have CLIENT REGISTRY TERMINOLOGY SERVICE (OCL) and a SHR. For matching the team is using a probabilistic algorithm and using multiple mixture of attributes with different weighting. - Have documented the interoperability standards that they are planning to use for imaging and other standards. - Using a CLIENT REGISTRY and all of the EMRs are connected to the interoperability layer. - also using a shared health record - have a TERMINOLOGY SERVICE Using OpenHIM ( INTEROPERABILITY LAYER) to connect with Lab systems and had to integrate the the sample tracking component that links the data to a central lab where people can log in and get their results Created an OpenHIM mediator (INTEROPERABILITY LAYER) PMCT / Product CatalogPRODUCT CATALOG TERMINOLOGY SERVICE Health FACILITY REGISTRY NATIONAL NATIONAL NATIONAL Master Patient Index (DDE) Patient Matching PILOTThe initial scale for the pilot is for a specific EMR to a central repository.

A national identifier is not used for health. There is an id number generated by the system and given to the patient. The ministry would like to be able to connect all of the facilities together. One challenge is that many patients are nomadic.
Use Cases: Continuity of care and Public health management. Currently have "online" facilities that can push data to the central repository in real time. Approximately have progressed to have 20% online. Also have "offline" facilities that share data, but not in realtime.
