next steps to develop the product,
business and marketing
• 5 minute video demonstrating the

Evaluation Criteria
•Facilitates data exchange and fosters collaboration between primary
care and public health professionals in a mutually beneficial manner
•Usability and design of solution
•Can be easily integrated into the workflow of primary care and
public health professionals, including existing EHR / Health IT data
infrastructures
•Innovation and unique qualities of solution (e.g., fills a known gap or
breaks new ground)

Editor's Notes

  • #3 HEALTH 2.0 SLIDE Ed Hunter is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the de Beaumont Foundation, a private foundation that works to transform the practice of public health in the United States. Prior to his work at de Beaumont, Ed was the Director of the CDC’s Washington Office, where he served as a principal liaison to the government and was a leading voice for the nation’s preeminent public health and scientific research programs. Dr. Lloyd Michener is Professor and Chairman of Duke’s Community and Family Medicine department as well as a founder of the Practical Playbook. He is a leading voice for improving collaboration between public health and primary care, and brings his extensive experience to bear in his work to redesign health care to improve community health outcomes and in rapidly transforming health care delivery systems, with a focus on finding ways of making health care work better through teams, community engagement, and practice redesign.
  • #4 ED SLIDE Hi, I’m Ed Hunter, and I’m pleased to be here today to talk to you about why we wanted to host the Closing the Data Divide Challenge. First, a little background. We have tremendous volumes of patient data that can be useful in addressing health issues at the community level We have community-level data that can help inform patient care and empower clinicians to fully address patient needs Clinicians lack awareness of community-level factors that the health of individual patient care, and limit their ability to change their communities for the better Public health officials lack data that is timely, or geographically sufficient – so are unable to identify patterns and areas where interventions can be effectively targeted The divide is caused by a lack of effective tools for sharing data, as well as other perceived and real barriers to sharing The problem isn’t simply creating more data – it’s finding creative tools to share data, facilitate (rather than inhibit) access, and promote collaboration
  • #5 ED SLIDE [explaining the roles and functions of public health and primary care]
  • #6 ED SLIDE [explaining how public health and primary care BOTH want each other’s data – and how it will serve the work of both] Now, I’ll hand it over to Lloyd Michener.
  • #7 LLOYD SLIDE Hi, this is Lloyd Michener speaking, and I am going to tell you about what we can do when we actually have a free flow of data between public health and primary care. We can… Visualize the obesity epidemic and develop micro-targeted solutions. Contain the spread of contagion by tracing contacts through a population Understand the confluence of multiple variables in the emergence of an epidemic Map disease prevalences with increasing specificity. We can identify the emergence of asthma clusters and perform housing and environmental inspections to make sure that our kids aren’t being needlessly subjected to asthma from preventable causes, like mold, chemicals, or smoke
  • #8 LLOYD SLIDE We are looking to move from a data exchange process that is slow, laborious, painstaking, and inefficient to one that is timely, granular, networked, and fluid. Both primary care and public health can benefit from each other’s data. As Ed discussed, Public health can use the data found in a clinical context to inform community level actions and interventions. Primary care can use the insights and analyses generated by public health to give patients more relevant, actionable advice. Both of us suffer when we’re not able to access each other’s data.
  • #9 ED SLIDE There are going to be some challenges. There’s a reason why this doesn’t exist yet – but the challenges aren’t insurmountable. Some of the structural or technical challenges we see are: Understanding provisions of HIPAA that enable sharing clinical data with public health Building tools that work with existing systems, including EHRs Building awareness of the data resources and potential uses in solving mutual problems There are also challenges of culture. Collaboration is a new thing for many docs and hospitals – although not all! [Acknowledge Lloyd’s presence as a willing participant and catalyzer.] Overcoming cultural resistance to collaborating across sectors Building trust that data can be shared for mutual benefit, and minimum risk And now we will hand it over to Health 2.0 to discuss more about the details of how to win this thing!
