SOCI2017 - Day One - Introducing the National Interoperability Collaborative and the HIMSS-SOCI Guidance Document and Action PlanDaniel Stein, President, SOC Institute,
Margo Edmunds, PhD, Vice President, Evidence Generation and Translation, AcademyHealth,
Thomas M. Leary, MA, CAE, FHIMSS, Vice President, Government Relations, HIMSS North America
During this session, we framed the Symposium’s purpose and core themes through discussion of the new Kresge-enabled work on a National Interoperability Collaborative, as well as the Interoperability Guidance Document and Action Plan that SOC is preparing for/with HIMSS. The focus was on showing how the two initiatives intertwine – and on how to leverage existing and new tools/models to better address critical public health crises (e.g. opioids, water contamination, natural disasters, etc.). Our goal is to advance the way organizations and systems can improve early detection, prevention and early intervention to coordinate and respond to public health-related emergencies.

Introduction by Professor Phillip Leaf, JHU Bloomberg School of Public Health. Presentation on the New Jersey Drug Monitoring Initiative (Fusion Center). This session offered an overview of the NJ Drug Monitoring Initiative, which takes a holistic approach against heroin and opioid use/abuse though better information sharing. Leveraging strategic partnerships, improved use of intelligence, policy development, investigative support, outreach and training, the state is impacting both the demand and supply side of the crisis. Discussions addressed the benefits of increased information sharing by public health and human services.

With possible changes impending in healthcare and social service policy, including to the Affordable Care Act, states may play a much more integral role in determining strategy and policy on these critical issues. Should the opportunity arise to create something different in the United States, how could we take advantage of it? Other nations have succeeded in achieving better health outcomes at a lower cost than has the U.S. This discussion explored international best practices and how they might apply to states in our country today. Topics included social care integration, interoperability, and how technology is transforming social services and care.

SOCI2017 - Day Two - Silicon Valley Regional Data Trust: A Unique Three County Data-Sharing InitiativeRichard Gold, SOC Institute Senior Consultant
Silicon Valley Regional Data Trust: Marcy Lauck, Director III, Data Governance, Santa Clara County Office of Education, Founder and Co-Director, Silicon Valley Regional Data Trust
Laura Garnette, Santa Clara County Chief Probation Officer
Three California counties are working together to create a regional data trust to share information among multiple public agencies including Education, Public Health, Probation and Social Services. The current program silos, coupled with unresolved privacy issues, result in incomplete, fragmented and disjointed service delivery for children, especially those living in poverty. A well-managed data trust can provide a comprehensive understanding of factors contributing to student failure and success. SVRDT, which seeks to improve the effectiveness of services and academic outcomes, is a model for improved data sharing and interoperability at work.

SOCI2017 - Day Two - Fitting the Pieces Together: Building the National Interoperability Collaborative – and a Journey Mural (2017 - 2019)Facilitators:
SOC Institute, AcademyHealth, JHU Faculty
Thanks to a generous grant from the Kresge Foundation, as well as support from HIMSS, we have a unique opportunity to launch the National Interoperability Collaborative. This session will engage participants in geographically focused working groups to begin outlining the core themes and focus areas needed to realize the vision of improved information sharing and interoperability across the spectrum of care. Using facilitated brainstorming, groups will identify key areas for NIC’s successful launch, including vision, governance, research, metrics and training. We will also outline specific ways that NIC’s partners and members can be involved into the future. During this session, we will co-create a graphically illustrated journey mural that will be used to communicate future actions and plans.
SOCI2017 - Day Two - Moving Forward with Scalability in MindModerator: Paul Wormeli, SOC Institute Board of Directors, Executive Director Emeritus, Integrated Justice Systems Institute (IJIS)
Governor Jim Geringer (former), HIMSS Board Member, Esri
William Hazel, MD, Secretary, Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources
The final roundtable session will utilize our distinguished panelists’ knowledge, skills and experience to synthesize learning and goals from the symposium; in particular, they will focus on accommodating and anticipating the demands of scaling initiatives to fit the requirements of jurisdictions of any size – from local to national. This conversation will be informed by relevant lessons drawn from the experience of homeland security, public safety, healthcare delivery and government, so they can be integrated into our vision, goals and plans for the future. Lessons learned and key recommendations will be incorporated into the National Interoperability Collaborative Roadmap and the SOCI-HIMSS Guidance Document and Action Plan following the symposium |
