The OpenHIM is an interoperability layer that facilitates OpenHIE workflows. It allows easy configuration and setting up of channels and endpoints that allow systems to connect and exchange information. The use of mediators allows implementer/developers to add logic and custom flows to the channels. This is the current reference technology for the IOL community of OpenHIE.

Connectathon offering:

The OpenHIM will be setup and available for teams to create their own channels and the Jembi team be avaiable to advise of how mediators and additions can be made

HEARTH is Jembi's HL7 FHIR server that serves as an SHR on many of Jembi's internal projects. This FHIR server allows for FHIR resource management and has been used in multiple ways to manage more than just patient health data; such as patient management, facility mangement etc.

Connectathon offering:

HEARTH will be setup and available for teams to leverage and engage with the endpoints that include the storage and retrieval of FHIR resources from the tool

OpenCRVS is an open offering to countries who are looking for a means to better manage Cival Registration and Vital Statiscs (CRVS) needs. The Plan and Jembi team have developed a first version/prototype of the tool based on the OpenHIE architecture and have modeled interfaces to other systems using FHIR.

Connectathon offering:

OpenCRVS will be available for teams to discuss how best to leverage data as well as how to create CRVS event notifications (such as birth notifications) from other health systems

CQF Ruler: (https://github.com/DBCG/cqf-ruler/wiki) is an implementation of HL7 FHIR's Clinical Reasoning(http://hl7.org/fhir/clinicalreasoning-module.html) module. It provides support for evaluation of quality measures specified using Clinical Quality Language (http://cql.hl7.org/2018May/), as well as decision support evaluation using CDS Hooks (http://cds-hooks.hl7.org/ballots/2018May/).

Connectathon Offering:

The Measure (http://hl7.org/fhir/measure.html) and MeasureReport (http://hl7.org/fhir/measurereport.html) resources in FHIR have been updated to support public health reporting and will be available for development and testing use throughout the connectathon.

DHIS2 is a tool for health information collection, management, analysis and reporting. It is the current reference software for the HMIS component within the openHIE architecture.

Connectathon offering:

A sandbox instance of the latest version of DHIS2 software will be available on the cloud specifically for use within the connectathon/hackathon.

The MEDIC CR (Client Registry) is a master patient index (MPI) which is used to cross reference patient identities from a variety of assigning authority domains. The version on offer is a recent refactoring to the new SanteMPI branding and includes several updates over the published GitHub version. Unfortunately SanteMPI Version 2.0 is not currently available for testing (so no FHIR DSTU3).

Connectathon offering:

Version 1.3 has been sandboxed and configured with four assigning authorities which may be distributed by interested parties at the connect-a-thon. The assigning authorities are: VENDOR_1, VENDOR_2, VENDOR_3, and VENDOR_4. To register patients sending devices match the assigning authority name and sending facilities are : FACILITY_1, FACILITY_2, etc. respectively.

For example: VENDOR_1 would send

MSH|^~\&|VENDOR_1|FACILITY_1|...
...
PID|||RJ-439^^^VENDOR_1|... 

If you would like to receive ADT or v3 notifications (ITI-10/ITI-46) please contact Justin Fyfe (justin.fyfe1@mohawkcollege.ca) with your public IP address and port number. ITI-10 allows a remote server to be notified whenever a master record is created/updated or merged in either HL7 v2 (ITI-10) or HL7 v3 (ITI-46).

If you are running an IHE ATNA compliant audit repository and would like the MPI to send either IETF RFC-3881 or DICOM format audits please contact Justin Fyfe (justin.fyfe1@mohawkcollege.ca) with your public IP address and whether you prefer UDP, TCP or STCP audits and whether your repository supports RFC-3881 or DICOM formatted audits.

Another note: The security settings on this MPI do not allow blanket "give me everything" queries on the FHIR interface. Queries must have at least one query parameter or else the server will reject the message.

OpenLMIS is an electronic logistics management information system that manages and automates logistics processes at over 10,000 health facilities across 9 country implementations in Africa. In the OpenHIE landscape, key areas of interoperability are: Facility Master Data, Product Master Data, and pushing data out to HMIS and third-party reporting/dashboard/analytics tools.

Connectathon offering:

OpenLMIS is available at a demo site in the cloud with a documented REST JSON API. This demo site is available for teams to log in and access the APIs to demonstrate integrations. A few members of the OpenLMIS Community will be on-hand at the Connect-a-Thon to answer questions and discuss interoperability scenarios.

openIMIS is an open-source MIS designed to facilitate the move towards Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by supporting the management of various types of social health protection schemes, including management of policies - financial information but also included medical supplies and services -, insurees - incl. Enrollment and renewals - and claims.

Connectathon offering:

A connectathon instance with dummy data will be available to analyse and potentially develop integrations with OpenHIE registries and other systems. Examples: export facility data information contained in openIMIS

Apelon’s Distributed Terminology System (DTS), is an industry leading open-source healthcare terminology management platform. DTS has been designed to meet emerging enterprise requirements for creating, maintaining, and deploying terminologies with local enhancements into enterprise, regional, and national distributed application environments.

DTS’s functionality, capabilities, and ease-of-use is why DTS is the preferred platform for the comprehensive management of both standard and local/proprietary terminologies. As an open source solution, DTS provides significant cost, integration and adoption advantages compared to proprietary solutions. Available professional support and subscription content services allow implementers to leverage an open source product, making customizations to the source code without restriction, while also having access to optional Apelon services for implementation guidance, trouble shooting and standard terminology preparation.

Exemplary OHIE community implementations include the Philippines Health Information Exchange and the Rwanda Health Enterprise Architecture (RHEA)

DTS continues to include updated support for HL7's FHIR Terminology Service. With Apelon's incorporation of these features, users and organizations can continue to leverage the FHIR Standard in their own Terminology applications.

Connectathon offering:

A FHIR (STU v3.0.1) Terminology Service with the HL7 content included in the FHIR specification and many international standards such as ICD-10.

NOTE: Though freely available and publicly accessible, user registration is required. If you plan to use the service during the OHIE Connectathon, please send a request to support@apelon.com for a user/pass. Due to the timezone difference between Arusha and the US Eastern seaboard, it is recommended that requests for user accounts be done as soon as possible and in advance of the Connectathon.

Additional information can be found at www.apelondts.org or by contacting info@apelon.com.

To access the FHIR Terminology Service, use this base URL: http://fhir.ext.apelon.com:7080/dtsserverws/fhir

To access an introductory Demo page that describes the FHIR operations supported and provides sample queries, please see the following webpage:
