Who are the International Players in Health Who are the International Players in Health Care Standards?Care Standards?
• ISO - TC 215 Health Informatics• CEN - European Standard Development• DICOM - Imaging Standard• EDIFACT - United Nations Body• HL7 - Clinical Messaging Standards• IEEE - Medical Device Standards
Duke University
Why do we want ISO standards?Why do we want ISO standards?
• To enable a global market for health care vendor?
• To permit highly industrialized countries to dominate?
• To minimize effort and combine world’s experts to produce best standards?
• To remove barriers to health care in the global setting
Duke University
Key IssuesKey Issues
• Can we work effectively in our country standards and at the ISO level, particularly when the topics are the same?
• Is there a better way in which we can blend these efforts, reducing redundancy?
• Where are the resources to create global standards?
• How will national interests and customs be accommodated?
• How do standards requirements differ between developing countries and highly developed countries?

TC 215 ...In the beginning …TC 215 ...In the beginning …
• Interest in international community, particularly ANSI and CEN
• Series of meetings in US and Europe• Formed in January, 1998• Secretariat US/ANSI – ASTM• Convenor – Peter Treseder, Australia

ISO/TC 215 - ScopeISO/TC 215 - Scope
• Standardization in the field of information for health, and health information and communications technology (ICT) to achieve compatibility and interoperability between independent systems. Also, to ensure compatibility of data for comparative statistical purposes (eg., classifications), and to reduce duplication of effort and redundancies
• “… it is not the intent of the ISO/TC215 to:– Standardize the clinical practice of medicine;
– Define a standardized health care delivery service structure;
– Standardize medical knowledge, although the representation and exchange of knowledge is within the scope if ISO/TC215;

ISO/TC215 Business PlanISO/TC215 Business Plan
• Objectives– To be recognized as a key, global player in the
development of relevant, timely and useful information standards by:• Adopting existing standards, or• Encouraging other suitable bodies to develop
standards to fulfill ISO/TC215’s objectives, or• Developing its own standards where neither of the
above is achievable
Duke University
ISO/TC 215 Business PlanISO/TC 215 Business Plan
• Objectives– To produce standards only where there is a demonstrable need
which is driven by end users and which will be successfully delivered in a timely fashion and commensurate with the ISO resources required
– To maximize participation by all national member bodies, preferably as “participating” members, and to maximize the involvement of those who are expected to be affected by ISO/TC 215 standards, in both the planning of the TC’s work programme and in the production of standards, in a manner which satisfies the users’ identified needs.

WG5: Smart CardsWG5: Smart Cards
• Cards to identify both patients and providers• Patient data cards intended to convey a
healthcare data set of medical importance• Look for technology independent data
structures leading to interoperability and compatibility in the communication of data

CENCEN
• Europe decided in 1990 that many of the issues that needed standards for health informatics would best be solved on a European scale rather than national. That position now seems to be changing with the creation of ISO TC 215 and the emergence of HL7 as an international standard. CEN has moved to a position of sharing and cooperation in the international community.
