Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved. 1109 Apr 2007
Connecting Patients to Trials Use Case
• Scope:– Determine value-added outputs and services that can be provided to patients, physicians, investigator sites, and
clinical trial sponsors based on improved matching of patients to trials via electronic health record information.
• Value-added Services Identified:– Direct to Patient Clinical Trial Matching Service
• Compare a patient’s health record and indication preferences and against pre-screening criteria of all registered clinical trials. Provide report of matching trials to patient with information about how to get screened for the trial.
– Service for Site / Physician to Match Patients to Trials
• Allow investigator sites and physician offices to run a report that will match their patients to clinical trials for which the patients meet the pre-screening criteria based on the patients’ electronic health records.
– Clinical Trial Recruitment Feasibility Analysis Service
• Allow clinical trial sponsors to determine the patient populations that meet the pre-screening criteria of their trials, stratified by location
– Inform Investigator of Qualifying Patients in His/Her Geography
• Allow trial investigator sites to run reports that will identify the physicians in their geographic area that currently treat patients that match the pre-screening criteria of a trial being run at their sites.
• Key Obstacles:– Privacy & Consent: policies regarding patient consent and privacy protections to share health information for
purpose of clinical trial matching. This includes agreement of who can access identified and de-identified patient data.
– Standards: terminology standards necessary to create consistent, computable, interoperable health record data for comparison against structured clinical trial pre-screening criteria
– Data Ownership & Governance: agreements of who owns patient data, how it will be governed, whether it can be aggregated and by whom, and who can use it for what purposes.
Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved. 1209 Apr 2007
Post-Marketing Drug Safety & Surveillance Use Case
• Scope:– Evaluate how electronic health records can be used to improve post-marketing safety and surveillance of medicines,
including receipt, evaluation, and reporting of individual adverse events, signal detection for patterns of drug effects, and longitudinal data mining for hypothesis testing and pharmacoepidemiology.
– This use case focuses only on “spontaneous” reporting, and will not include safety and surveillance of drug reactions occurring during clinical trials.
• Scenarios Identified:– EHR-enabled Adverse Drug Reaction Reporting (ICSR)
• Enable healthcare professionals to more easily report adverse events with higher quality supporting data available in electronic medical record and other electronic systems. Create a central repository & workflow capabilities that can shared by drug manufacturers and regulatory agencies for collection, management, and reporting of adverse events.
– Signal Detection of Drug Reactions• Detection of patterns of drug reactions using signal detection algorithms against comprehensive, longitudinal
electronic patient health records available through health information exchanges.– Epidemiology, Hypothesis Testing, & Longitudinal Data Mining
• Allow researchers to execute data queries to test hypotheses and evaluate patterns of drug effects against one or more repositories of standardized, anonymized patient health information for large numbers of patients across the country.
• Key Obstacles:– AE Reporting: physicians and other healthcare professionals must be given incentive to report adverse events through
EMR systems with high quality supporting data.– Regulatory Agreement: gain agreement from regulators to change current processes for adverse event reporting to a
new model that allows manufacturers and regulators to use one central system for AE collection and reporting.– Data Ownership & Governance: agreements of who owns patient data, how it will be governed, whether it can be
aggregated and by whom, and who can use it for what purposes.– Privacy & Consent: policies regarding patient consent and privacy protections to share health information. This includes
agreement of who can access identified and de-identified patient data.– Standards: terminology standards necessary to create consistent, computable, interoperable health record data.

• Successfully completed the NHIN prototype effort – – Achieved all objectives in SOW including connecting 15 health care
organizations in three distinct markets and demonstrating that data extraction and normalization are possible.
• Presentation at AHIC National Forum on January 24th-25th, 2007 well received by over 600 attendees
• Presented at HIMSS to International audience
• Over twenty requests from agencies and clients for demonstrations
• ONC Regional Implementation RFPs expected May 2007– Expect 10-14 awards for total of $20M
– Still not a lot of details on RFPs
Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved. 1709 Apr 2007
What We Set Out To Do
Build a secure NHIN prototype that leveraged existing infrastructure and:
Allow patient control of their health informationConnect systems with a wide variety of IT platforms Deal with the critical issues of data normalization Provide enough flexibility to allow local choice in the degree of centralization of dataMeet the requirements of the three use cases
Show we could quickly build out RHIOs
Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved. 1809 Apr 2007
The shift from the NHIN to RHIOs
So now what happens…
• Lots of talk and emerging efforts at regional and state levels– Few $’s
– Governance still an issue
– Business Case less than compelling
• Look to:– State Medicaid programs as nexus for efforts (ability to leverage MMIS matching
federal funds)
– Emergence of PHR information aggregators
– Health IT Bill seeking to make owners of data HIPAA “covered entities”

Administration and Data collection across a fragmented NIH GCRC / CTSA sites
Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved. 2509 Apr 2007
• How should Slipstream proceed now?
– Slipstream going forward can provide the following:
• Evolve into an “incubator” for PoC projects – focal point for planning and co-funding of emerging efforts
• Provide PoC planning, progress updates, and discussion forums to disseminate results
• Deliver educational / briefing sessions for participant senior management and other stakeholders
• Continued communication and influence planning and execution
• Marketing of the use cases
– Slipstream would require “thinner” resourcing as most effort and investment would be pushed to PoC projects.
– Incremental budget to support governance/operating model support.
– Merge into CRIX? Merge with PhRMA HIT Forum?

BreastCancerTrials.org: Overview of current operating model
9Dubman: Clinical Trial Matching as a CRIX Service
Development of a CRIX Clinical Trial Matching Service can be Very Cost Effective
Able to leverage existing solution (bct/caMATCH)– Originally designed for and by patients
– Scenarios driven by domain experts and actual users– Initial implementation by UCSF
– Additional joint development by UCSF and the NCI (caMATCH)– Current UCSF investments towards standards-based solution
• Leveraging existing international standards/ data models (CDISC/ Niland’s work)• Moving towards fully caBIGTM compatible, scalable architecture/ infrastructure
• Provides for future Interoperability with other critical components – The WHO clinical trial registry, other caBIGTM data sets, tools, etc.
Benefit from what was learned in earlier pilot tests
Benefit from other relationships built by UCSF/Quantum Leap
Able to leverage existing CRIX capability: Firebird– There will be some challenges/ enhancements needed for Firebird but these are minor
compared to a brand new development
Bottom line: This is a Win-Win-Win for Researchers, Patients and Industry
The near-term opportunity is to converge effort and build Matching Patients to Trials services under the CRIX service umbrella

Overview of the Drug Safety Surveillance component of Slipstream 2
• The concept– Upgrade the MHRA’s capabilities in AE collection and Signal Detection:
• Convert the Yellow Card Scheme from paper-based to electronic – create the eYC
• Upgrade the data collection and processing capabilities that underpin GPRD
– In parallel…implement similar capabilities at an established Health Information Exchange
• Leverage RFD capability to simplify the collection of AEs and collect GPRD-like datasets
– Merge the two efforts to create a global capability
Initial focus will be on the implementation of an Electronic Yellow Card concept
Next steps are to outlines the scope, high level solution, estimates and plans for the development of a production solution.

Develop a Clinical Research NHIN to converge Health Record and Clinical Research data collection, management, and control
• The problem– Health care data exists in paper or if electronic, it exists in hundreds of disparate legacy
systems.
– Efficiently accessing it to improve clinical research currently is not practical
• Components needed to solve this problem– A functional health information exchange (HIE) that can extract and normalize data from
legacy systems
– Access to a governance body that can influence behavior of disparate organizations
– Access to an organization with a huge need to share data
– Participation by organizations who can help drive a market solution and influence governmental and industry
– Access to people with the skill set and passion to pull this off
– Funding
Copyright © 2007 Accenture All Rights Reserved. 3809 Apr 2007
• The Solution– Identify two NIH CTSA (Clinical and Translational Science Award) consortium and pilot HIE implementations at both
institutions to capture clinical data in a standard way.
– Work with all twelve CTSA institutions, HL7, NLM and CDISC and the Pharma Industry to define requirements. Phase data requirements into prototypes. The 12 institutions forming the initial consortium:
• Columbia University Health Sciences - Irving Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (IICTR)
• Duke University - Clinical Translational Science Institute (CTSI)
• Mayo Clinic College of Medicine - Center for Clinical and Translational Research (CCTR)
• Oregon Health & Science University - Oregon Clinical and Translational Science Institute (OCTSI)
• Rockefeller University - Rockefeller University Center for Clinical and Translational Sciences
• University of California, Davis - Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTSC)
• University of California, San Francisco - Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI)
• University of Pennsylvania - Institute for Translational Medicine and Therapeutics (ITMAT)
• University of Pittsburgh - Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI)
• University of Rochester - University of Rochester Clinical and Translational Science Institute (UR CTSI)
• University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston - Center for Clinical and Translational Sciences (CCTS)
