The Use Case Factory® 2022 Highlights
Death Notifications
Electronic Case Reporting
Moving from concept to pilot, with stakeholder
Michigan Medicine volunteering to help, this use
case timely and accurately reports fact of death
from Michigan Department of Health & Human
Services' Electronic Death Registration System
to those providers that have an active care
relationship with the deceased.
Electronic case reporting (eCR) is the
interoperable, automated, real- time exchange of
case reports regarding a patient's infectious
disease status.
Electronic death notifications help improve
awareness of the event, avoiding unnecessary
and wasteful spending, precluding falsified
insurance claims, and ceasing the dispensation
of prescribed medications.
Electronic Consent
Management Service
To tackle deaths due to drug overdose in Michigan,
MDHHS and MiHIN have partnered to develop and
implement the statewide Electronic Consent
Management System (eCMS) which promotes
better patient medical record transparency and
care coordination amongst treatment providers and
prescribers. Without this timely information
healthcare providers are potentially prescribing
opioids to an unknown opioid abuser.
The eCMS captures and notifies treatment
providers of patient consent allowing for the
sharing of any history of substance use disorder
treatment across care teams.
The eCMS is currently being piloted by three
prepaid inpatient health plans and their substance
use disorder clinics with hopes that it will be
available for all providers and clinics by the end of
2023.
Supporting this capability between healthcare
providers and public health reporting agencies
allows for increased accuracy, effectiveness, and
speed of reporting cases of infectious diseases.
Electronic case reporting also lays the foundation
for two-way data exchange, allowing clinicians to
better collaborate with public health officials
during outbreaks, while staying more informed.
State public health reporting data is also used to
support national and international disease
surveillance efforts.
Health
Claims
This use case enables data traditionally found in
institutional (facility), professional, dental, or retail
pharmacy pre-adjudicated claims to be used to
establish an integrated clinical and administrative
record.
Supplementing clinical data with claims data can
augment the understanding of various touch points
of patients in the healthcare ecosystem and support
equitable care, quality improvement and population
health initiatives. The extraction of patient
conditions, place of service, service provided, as well
as other common data elements will enable the
rapid population of registries, permit notification of
the extended care team, and trigger the additional
data collection of richer clinical information that can
support quality improvement efforts.
The initial focus of the work is on automating the
population of chronic disease registries to support
quality improvement.
