I’ve incorporated the excellent suggestions from @darren.douglass into the topic list, and converted it to a poll so we can work out what to talk about. Here is the link to get to it easily:
In a similar thought process, I’d merge together how to navigate funding and other barriers with how to sort out WiFi/connectivity/subpar UI/etc - at least in my DHB you can’t sort out the latter without the former…
We’ve had an excellent response to the vote on the topics; please vote if you haven’t yet.
Next, we need volunteers to own each topic. The topics will end up in Discourse, starting as notes taken during the meeting, with the volunteer in charge of editing it.
If you would like to adopt one of the topics, please reply to this post.
Hi Nathan, I’m happy to lead one of the two (or possibly both) about workforce (1) Support and education for clinical informatics workforce
and professional development and (2) what clinical informatics skills and roles do we need. I’m doing research in this area so I have something to offer.
Must admit I have a strange day today – ended up sitting in a CIO meeting (without my CIO) and again realised how unprepared I am
(did sit there wondering when my title changed to deputy CIO and when I was going to be told so I could refuse it!)
Message though – be careful what you wish for in being at the table to talk oversight and prioritisation – there is a LOT more to running these things than the basic front end stuff
we deal with
You aren’t the first to suggest that we combine them; let’s do that. If I was a bit cleverer I would combine them on the poll. It give you the highest percentage too!
I’ve closed the poll now, and here are the four selected topics:
You can put me down for option 3 if you like. I may not have the background you’re looking for but as I run the national aged care bench-marking service, data collection is something I’ve very definitely involved in. I look forward to meeting you all. kind regards - Gillian Robinson
G’day Martin, As a GP, my 2cents about the uniqueness of H1’s HIE platform is the capacity for read and write functionality of the patient-goal centred care plan. If this capacity were included in the patient portal, with patients demanding that clinicians look at this dynamic, longitudinal plan, based around their goals they can update via their patient portal, this might drive more utilisation of this unique read/write feature and, I think, would be ‘disruptive’ to improving person-centred health outcomes. Such read/write (bidirectional exchange) is NOT a feature in the American HIEs, so H1 stands out for this, on the strong privacy framework you mentioned. Emily
Great idea @amscroggins we have a sponsored social event straight after the session but could easily collect folk and head out from there? May be a few of us to descend on one venue though
