Why was this Drug - Drug interaction missed?
An Actual Case
Although the name of the patient has been changed, this diagram is based on an actual case where a drug drug interaction did not produce an alert. The second drug was not included in the drug list but was 'lost' to the Patient Safety system in a text field.
This is why Better Data results in Better Patient Care and Better Outcomes! What could your EHR system be missing when data comes in from external trading partners?

DANGER: Is Your Organization Still Faxing Patient Records? Time is Running Out!
How can data exchange by fax result in lost revenue and potential lawsuits?
- Faxes are not secure
- Faxes are slow: it takes 2 to 3 weeks to reenter the data in the recipient’s EHR system
- Delays in treatment cause dissatisfaction in both patients and clinicians
- Lost revenue due to delays, expired pre-authorizations, and retesting
- Patient safety issues arise as rekeying data can cause mistakes
Specific compliance requirements start in November 2020 for information blocking. By January 1, 2021, the ONC 21st Century Cures Act Final Rule will take effect. The rule requires hospitals and medical centers to provide their patients electronic access to their medical records at no cost.[1] By May 1, 2021, hospitals must be able to exchange transition of care data. If you’re still relying on faxing, this could spell trouble for your organization!
The good news is that there’s a simple web-based solution for data exchange for both small and large providers.
Direct Secure Messaging:
- Is HIPAA-compliant and a secure messaging service.
- Appears like email, Direct utilizes digital certificates and a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to encrypt the contents of a message, meaning only the intended recipient can decrypt the message.
- Could take as little as 2 hours to send medical data.
- Can exchange messages with any existing provider with a direct mail address.
- Is already built in to all certified EHR systems for free or use the web client
What is a direct email address?
A direct address is essentially an email address issued as the identification for anyone who sends or receives direct secure messages. A direct email address differs from a regular email address in these ways:
- It follows a standard of YourName@direct.WhereYouWork.com
- It is secure with all transmitted data meeting technical and regulatory standards
- A direct email address can be given to a provider, an organization, or even a medical device
- Instead of communications being routed through an email provider like Google, messages are routed through a Health Internet Service Provider (HISP).
- Direct addresses are maintained and governed by DirectTrust, a non-profit healthcare industry group.
Tired of not having a faster solution? We are experts in Direct!
Call us now for a free consultation, and we’ll get you set up with Direct Secure Messaging by:
1. Creating an interoperability plan based on your specific needs.

Clinical Data and Process Models
Data and information models are components of data architecture and are data architecture artifacts. Clinical data is highly complex, ever changing, and always flows from the mission of the organization. A neonatal facility collects different data about patients than an Allergist or an ER. J P Systems has many decades of experience modeling clinical data and processes.
Domain specific knowledge is as important as the technical knowledge to the proper construction of model designs. Data modeling is a critical step when embarking on a new domain design. We optimize and standardize the reference data to facilitate its exchange with other healthcare providers. The development of the HL7's US FHIR Core is a critical step in the nation's data architecture: US FHIR Core Data Elements.
Information Architecture (IA) achieves data consistency by:
- Modeling semantics and reference knowledge common to a wide range of artifacts.
- Leveraging the semantics to ensure consistency across models and model artifacts.
- Using the same semantics as a basis for logical and physical database model generation, software component and service generation, rule development (e.g., in production rule-based systems), etc.
- Logical consistency, validation, and reuse
Our design methodologies are finely tuned to increase interoperability within an enterprise, and between an enterprise and its data exchange partners. Standardized data elements are used to create a core of data used in in the United States.
Data models help relate the Business Architecture (what you do as an organization) to the Information Technology (what you capture, store and process). IA is the high-level description of business information and communications which enables the translation of business perspectives to and from your IT systems. Data Architecture occurs on a lower level, closer to that of your data files and their actual contents. Business Strategy and IA are closely related in that IA enables the existing Business Strategy and fosters new Business Strategies.
The Cures ACT Timeline
How does the Cures Act Final Rule Affect Your Organization Now?
Empowering Patients with Their Health Record in a Modern Health IT Economy
Are you aware that your patients can now require you to send their patient records to their mobile phones? The electronic exchange of clinical information has helped doctors, nurses, pharmacists, other health care providers, and patients to access and securely share a patient’s vital medical information electronically—improving the speed, quality, safety, coordination, and cost of patient care.
The patient is at the center of the 21st Century Cures Act. Putting patients in charge of their health records is a key piece of patient control in health care, and patient control is at the center of HHS' work toward a value-based health care system.
The ONC Cures Act Final Rule implements interoperability requirements outlined in the Cures Act. Patients need more power in their health care, and access to information is key to making that happen.
Putting the patient first in health technology enables the health care system to deliver:
- Transparency into the cost and outcomes of their care
- Competitive options in getting medical care
- Modern smartphone apps to provide them convenient access to their records
- An app economy that provides patients, physicians, hospitals, payers, and employers with innovation and choice
The 21st Century Cures Act (Cures Act) was signed into law on 12/13/16, and was also designed to help accelerate medical product development and bring new innovations and advances to patients who need them faster and more efficiently. The law builds on FDA's ongoing work to incorporate the perspectives of patients into the development of drugs, biological products, and devices in FDA's decision-making process. Cures enhances our ability to modernize clinical trial designs
This Act Empowers Patients to Request their own Data be sent to a Mobile phone app. Are you ready?
