SAMHSA’s Vision for Advancing Behavioral Healthcare through Health Information Technology Maureen Boyle, Ph. D Lead Public Health Advisor, Health Information Technology Center for Substance Abuse Treatment Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration May 25, 2012
President’s Vision for Health IT è Medical information will follow consumers so that they are at the center of their own care. è Consumers will be able to choose physicians and hospitals based on clinical performance results made available to them. è Clinicians will have a patient's complete medical history, computerized ordering systems, and electronic reminders. 8
“The increased use of health information technology is a key focus of our reform efforts because it will help to improve the safety and quality of health care generally while also cutting waste out of the system. ” Kathleen Sebelius Secretary U. S. Department of Health & Human Services September 29, 2009 9
SAMHSA’s Strategic Initiative - Health IT è Goal: Widespread Implementation of HIT Systems that Support High Quality Integrated Behavioral Health Care for All Americans • Ensure the behavioral health provider networks fully participate in the adoption of Health IT • Working closely with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT to support inclusion of behavioral health 10
National HIT Landscape è The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act ( HITECH Act) • Meaningful Use, EHR Certification • Large national investment in HIT • Largely excludes behavioral health providers è The Affordable Care Act è Privacy and Confidentiality Regulations • HIPAA • 42 CFR Part 2 • State laws 11
Health Information Exchange Specialty Care EHR Primary Care EHR Hospitals EHR Clinics Pharmacies EHR HIE Nw. HIN Labs EHR Claims Health Plans PHR Patients Data Systems Public Health Agency 12
HITECH Act CMS and ONC define the requirements for meaningful use and certification of EHRs • Large national investment in HIT • Largely excludes behavioral health providers è Funding for Regional Extension Centers and Health Information Exchange Networks è NPRMs for Stage 2 were released on March 7 th and the final rule is expected by the end of the summer • Multiple items of relevance to behavioral health è – Clinical Quality Measures – Privacy and Confidentiality 13
Meaningful Use Stage 3 (2016 -) Stage 2 (2014 -) Stage 1 (2011 -) • Store Coded and Structured information in the EHR • Limited inclusion of BH Proposed • Focus on Data Exchange and Coordinated Care • Inclusion of BH clinical quality measures for primary care audience Proposed • Focus on Improved Outcomes and Reduced Costs shown through robust clinical quality measures 14

The Affordable Care Act è Establishing patient-centered medical homes (PCMH) and accountable care organizations (ACO) è Focus on coordinating care and pay for performance è Formation of an ACO is contingent upon HIT for information exchange and quality measure reporting 18
Privacy and HIT è Privacy and Confidentiality Regulations • HIPAA • 42 CFR Part 2 • State specific laws 19
Ensuring Confidentiality and Trust Increased accessibility to health records raises the question of how to ensure patient confidentiality and trust. è To be sustainable, electronic exchange efforts must establish trusting relationships with all participants, including patients. è Melissa M. Goldstein, JD et al, 2010 20
42 CFR Part 2 è Patient consent must be obtained before sharing information from a substance abuse treatment facility that is subject to 42 CFR Part 2 è The purpose of the statute and regulations prohibiting disclosure of records relating to substance abuse treatment, except with the patient's consent or a court order after good cause is shown, is to encourage patients to seek substance abuse treatment without fear that by doing so their privacy will be compromised. Source: State of Florida Center for Drug-Free Living , Inc. , 842 So. 2 d 177 (2003) at 181. 21
42 CFR Part 2 è Patient consent must be obtained before sharing information from a substance abuse treatment facility that is subject to 42 CFR Part 2 è Prohibition on re-disclosure without consent è Limited exceptions for disclosure without consent : • • Medical emergencies Child abuse reporting Crimes on program premises or against program personnel Communications with a qualified service organization of information needed by the organization to provide services to the program • Public Health research • Court order • Audits and evaluations Source: 42 CFR Part 2 22
MENTAL HEALTH CONFIDENTIALTY è Non-Substance Use Disorder mental health records may be treated as ultra-sensitive in many jurisdictions. è Each state approaches the confidentiality of mental health records from their own perspective • There are differences • There are similarities è EHR systems have to recognize this variability in state statutes and regulations. 23
Critical Health IT Questions è 42 CFR Part 2 and other regulations provide the ground rules. Careful analysis determines how the rules are applied to ensure effective treatment of substance use and mental health disorders. • Who needs what information when? • Who determines who needs what Information when? • How should psychotherapy notes be treated – as part of the patient record? • How should HIT systems be designed to control disclosure and re-disclosure of sensitive information 24
42 CFR Part 2 FAQs To help providers in the behavioral health field better understand privacy issues related to Health IT, SAMHSA, in collaboration with ONC has created two sets of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs). è These FAQs can be accessed at: http: //www. samhsa. gov/healthprivacy/docs/EHR-FAQs. pdf and è http: //www. samhsa. gov/about/laws/SAMHSA_42 CFRPART 2 F AQII_Revised. pdf è 25
The Health IT Challenge è Health IT will provide powerful tool to address the quality of care è The challenge is to be ready to use those tools è Only a small percentage of behavioral health providers have adopted interoperable Health IT systems è Even if the systems are in place, many do not have the personnel trained to effectively use them. 26
SAMHSA’s Strategic Initiative - Health IT è The SAMHSA is working to advance Behavioral Health through Health IT • Technologies/policies for privacy and confidentiality • Develop and test advanced functionality for Behavioral Health – Data segmentation and consent management – Behavioral Health Clinical decision support – Patient engagement and self-management • Development of data standards to ensure that information can be efficiently and effectively exchanged and interpreted • Behavioral health clinical quality measurement • Deliver technical assistance to increase adoption of HIT by the behavioral health community 27
SOLUTIONS FOR PRIVACY
Solutions for Privacy è Working to identify interim solutions for electronic exchange of health information that is subject to 42 CFR Part 2 using existing technology platforms • Working with technology and legal experts è Working with the ONC Standards and Interoperability Framework and the VA to develop open source technology for consent management and data segmentation to give the patient dynamic control over what information is shared 29
DATA STANDARDS
Benefits of Data Standards è The integration of behavioral health and physical health is contingent upon health information exchange è It is critical that health care providers can interpret the information they receive from other providers è Standards for collection and storage of health information are needed for both interpretability and integration of data into the receiving record 31
Benefits of Data Standards è The adoption of interoperable data standards can improve patient care and facilitate research • More accurate and consistent data will be available • Quality measurement • Real time outcome tracking and surveillance • Standard information will allow programs to cross reference and validate patient information. 32
SAMHSA HIT Standards Development è Open Behavioral Health Information Technology Architecture (OBHITA) project: • Working with the International Standards Organization Health Level 7 (HL-7) to define consensus standards for behavioral health information to be included in the standard Continuity of Care Document (CCD) • Working with the ONC Standards and Interoperability Framework for Data Segmentation for Privacy (DS 4 P) to identify exchange standards for patient consent information across EHRs 33
QUALITY MEASUREMENT
Quality Measurement è Quality measures have the potential to drive improvement in the healthcare system and can be used to demonstrate successful outcomes and reduced waste. è HIT performance and outcome measures will help answer the questions: • • Are our goals measurable and evidence-based? Are we reaching the right populations? Are client and treatment properly aligned? Are our programs successful? 35
Quality Measurement è Structural Measures • Healthcare facility's organization and resources, such as nursing staff levels, or the presence of a behavioral health provider on a care team è Process Measures • The actual techniques used to treat patients, such as screening and brief intervention for alcohol use or depression è Outcome Measures • The consequences of a patient's interaction with the healthcare system (i. e. Did the patient’s depression score decrease with treatment) 36
SAMHSA Quality Measurement Activities è Developing clinical quality measures for behavioral health that are relevant for the meaningful use program NQF #0109, Bipolar Disorder and Major Depression: Assessment for Manic or Hypomanic Behaviors NQF #0110, Bipolar Disorder and Major Depression: Appraisal for Alcohol or Chemical Substance Use NQF #0111, Bipolar Disorder: Appraisal for Risk of Suicide NQF #1385, Developmental Screening Using a Parent Completed Screening Tool (Parent report, Children 0 -5) NQF #0576, Follow-Up After Hospitalization for Mental Illness NQF #1401, Maternal Depression Screening NQF $1406, Risky Behavior Assessment or Counseling by Age 13 NQF #1507, Risky Behavior Assessment or Counseling by Age 18 NQF #0580, Bipolar Anti-manic Agent NQF #1661, SUB-1 Alcohol Use Screening NQF #1663, SUB-2 Alcohol Use Brief Intervention Provided or Offered and SUB-2 a Alcohol Use Brief Intervention 37
SAMHSA Quality Measurement Activities è Two contracts are working with technical and clinical experts to determine what additional quality measures need to be developed to support behavioral health care • Both in primary and specialty care • New quality measures will be developed to fill gaps that are identified through this process 38

Office of the Chief Privacy Officer (OCPO): ONC Efforts to Maintain the Privacy of Health Information Protected by 42 CFR Part 2 May 25, 2012 Scott Weinstein, JD
OCPO Overview • Chief Privacy Officer position created in HITECH Act • OCPO’s responsibilities include: – Advise the National Coordinator on privacy, security, and data stewardship of electronic health information – Coordinate with other Federal agencies, State and regional efforts, and foreign countries with regard to the privacy, security, and data stewardship of electronic individually identifiable health information 56
SAMHSA, ONC-OCPO, and 42 CFR Part 2 • SAMHSA – Enforces Part 2 – Provides Guidance to Providers on Part 2 Compliance • ONC-OCPO – Working with SAMHSA to explore technologies that allow exchange of electronic substance abuse clinical information while complying with Part 2 57
ONC initiatives that implicate 42 CFR Part 2 • Data Segmentation for Privacy • Query Health • SHPC Behavioral Health Data Exchange Consortium • State HIE Community of Practice Privacy and Security Workgroup on 42 CFR Part 2 58
Data Segmentation for Privacy Initiative 59
Data Segmentation for Privacy Objective • Produce a pilot project that will allow providers to share portions of an electronic health record while not sharing others • Certain privacy laws, such as 42 CFR Part 2, already require providers to ensure that parts of a medical record will not be shared without patient consent • Data Segmentation for Privacy provides a means for electronically implementing choices made by patients under these laws • Several use cases developed that focus on 42 CFR Part 2 60
User Story Example (1) The Patient receives care at their local hospital for a variety of conditions, including substance abuse as part of an Alcohol/Drug Abuse Treatment Program (ADATP). Data requiring additional protection and consent directive are captured and recorded in the EHR system. The patient is advised that the protected information will not be shared without their consent. Provider/Healthcare Organization 1 61
User Story Example (2) Provider/Healthcare Organization 1 Provider/Healthcare Organization 2 A clinical workflow event triggers additional data to be sent to Provider/Organization 2. This disclosure has been authorized by the patient, so the data requiring heightened protection is sent along with a prohibition on redisclosure. Provider/ Organization 2 electronically receives and incorporates patient additionally protected data, data annotations, and prohibition on redisclosure. 62
User Story Example (3) Provider/Healthcare Organization 1 Provider/Healthcare Organization 3 The Patient receives care for new, unrelated condition and is referred by Organization 1 to a specialist (Provider/Organization 3). Organization 1 checks the consent directive and sends authorized data to Organization 3. Provider/Organization 3 electronically receives and incorporates data which does not require heightened protection. 63
Segmentation of medical information • Determine information covered by Part 2 – Use standardized terminology to express that data came from a covered provider (“Facility. Type”) • Determine if patient has consented to share protected information – Consent refers to documents, document sections, or individual data elements that may be sent 64
Application of Metadata • Helps receiving EHR/HIO implement access control • Electronic enforcement of prohibition against redisclosure of information • Provides a reference to a consent document that controls the data 65
Query Health 66
What is Query Health? Objective: • Enable a learning health system to understand population measures of health, performance, disease and quality, while respecting patient privacy, to improve patient and population health and reduce costs. 67
Improve community understanding of patient population health Questions about disease outbreaks, prevention activities, health research, quality measures, etc. 68
Summary: Query Health Specifications and Standards Query Health must standardize how queries are asked, how they are returned, and how the information travels between parties. Specification Definition Standard Query Envelope A means to package the query and results along with security/privacy requirements, as well as other instructions Pop. Med. Net Query Envelope Query Format The way in which a query is constructed, its code, vocabulary etc. HQMF- Health Quality Measures Format Results Format The way in which a result is reported, its code, vocabulary etc. QRDA- Quality Reporting Document Architecture 69
Policy Sandbox Query requests and responses shall be implemented in the pilot to use the least identifiable form of health data necessary in the aggregate within the following guidelines: 1. Disclosing Entity: Queries and results will be under the control of the disclosing entity (e. g. , manual or automated publish / subscribe model). 2. Data Exchange: Data will be either 1) mock or test data, 2) de-identified data sets or limited data sets each with data use agreements 1 or 3) a public health permitted use 2 under state or federal law and regulation. 3. Small cells: For other than regulated/permitted use purposes, cells with less than 5 observations in a cell shall be blurred by methods that reduce the accuracy of the information provided 3. Notes: 1. It is understood that de-identified data sets do not require a data use agreement, but in the abundance of caution, and unless otherwise guided by the Tiger Team or HIT Policy Committee, the pilot will have data use agreements for de-identified data 2. For a public health permitted use, individually identifiable health information may be provided by the disclosing entity to the public health agency consistent with applicable law and regulation. 3. The CDC-CSTE Intergovernmental Data Release Guidelines Working Group has recommended limiting cell size to three counts presuming a sufficiently large population. This is also reflected in Guidelines for Working with Small Numbers used by several states. 70
Query Health and Part 2 • In future, Query Health technology may be used to query identifiable patient information • Must prevent identifiable Part 2 information from being returned in response to a query • Privacy metadata to restrict information from being queryable • Metadata in “query envelope” to communicate sensitivity when information allowed to be shared 71
State Health Policy Consortium (SHPC) - Behavioral Health Data Exchange Consortium 72
Purpose • Pilot the interstate exchange of behavioral health treatment records among treating health care providers using Nationwide Health Information Direct protocols • Draft Policies and Procedures (P&P) for exchange of behavioral health treatment records • The focus is on meeting the requirements of federal regulations at 42 CFR Part 2 and meeting mental health laws of consortium states 73
Participants • Consortium States are: Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Michigan, Nebraska and New Mexico; representatives include legal and behavioral health subject matter experts • Each state is to recruit Behavioral Health providers and other providers that might exchange with Behavioral Health providers to participate in the pilots • Representatives of the ONC, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the Legal Action Center and subject matter technical experts on the Nw. HIN Direct protocols 74
Workflow Scenarios for Discussion Workflow #1: Request for info Workflow #2: Update PCP • Florida Part 2 program requests patient’s records from prior stay at Michigan behavioral health provider facility (a Part 2 program) Workflow #3: referral At end of patient’s • Alabama PCP stay, New Mexico sends referral to provider (who is a Florida Part 2 program and a mental health provider) sends patient summary to patient’s PCP in Kentucky 75
