Introduction

•  Improved healthcare interoperability is
  everyones top priority.
• Both the public and private healthcare
  organizations are working across the industry to
  facilitate seamless health data exchange between
  health IT systems to coordinate care across
  various health settings nationwide.

Top 4 Challenges In Healthcare Interoperability
4
1. The absence of a standardized way to identify
patients

• As health information exchange continues to
  evolve day by day, the need for an accurate and
  standardized way to find patient health records
  is becoming very important.
• Thus, the lack of a national uniform patient
  identification system has resulted in increased
  healthcare facility costs, inefficient health
  data exchange, and patient safety threats.

2. The absence of health IT interoperability
standards

• Lack of interoperability standards can disturb
  the seamless health data exchange by complicating
  transactions and additional barriers to the flow
  of information.
• The adoption of health data standards serves as
  the basis for enabling interoperability across
  healthcare sectors and between electronic health
  record systems.

3. Difficulty In enforcing industry-wide
interoperability measurement standards

• With new interoperability improvement initiatives
  that are getting into progress across the
  industry, federal agencies need a way to measure
  the progress of these initiatives by assessing
  the state of health IT interoperability in a
  consistent way.

4. The need to end information blocking by vendors

• The practice of information blocking is a major
  impediment to healthcare interoperability.
• Even though blocking patient health information
  exchange is considered to be illegal, this still
  remains a problem and an important challenge to
  overcome to achieve true interoperability.

Conclusion

• Developing a national patient identifier,
  improving standardization and collaboration
  across the industry, and ending information
  blocking are all remaining to be the great
  challenges towards achieving true healthcare
  interoperability.
