Statewide Directory
Request Basic Provider Information
from Statewide Directory
Definition
In the Statewide ADT Notification Service, a patient is admitted to a
hospital. The hospital sends an ADT ‘Admit’ message to HIN. HIN checks
the Active Care Relationship ServiceSM (ACRS) which contains
information on what providers are associated with this patient. HIN
checks the Health Provider Directory (HPD) to obtain the delivery
preference for each of those providers (i.e. a secure Direct email, an ADT
message via HL7, etc.). HIN notifies the providers, based on their
delivery preferences, that the patient has been admitted to the hospital.
Other scenarios include when a patient is discharged from the hospital
or is transferred to a different location (unit, bed) within the hospital or
to another facility outside of the hospital.
The Submit Active Care Relationship Service Use Case addresses
organizations submitting data to establish an active care relationship
between a particular patient and that organization. The uses of active
care relationships in there are for routing ADT messages,
provider/physician org/care organization/payer searches for care
providers with active care relationship with patient.
The Submit Data to Provider Directory Use Case will populate and
maintain up-to-date Health Professional information for the purpose of
building a reliable statewide Directory. The Participating Organization
will provide information about Health Professionals, including but not
limited to name, contact information, organization(s), title(s),
position(s), health plan network participation and other associated
information as appropriate. Authorized Health Professionals can use the
Directory to look up Electronic Service Information (ESI), such as Direct
Addresses, to facilitate secure exchange of health information.
The Health Provider Directory Basic Query Use Case is designed to
provide up-to-date Health Professional, electronic address and
electronic service information, such as Direct addresses, to authorized
Health Professionals to facilitate contact look-up and secure exchange of
health information for the purpose of meeting operational, treatment or
payment obligations as defined in the HIPAA privacy and security rules
(information can not be stored within the querying organization).
Request Advanced Provider
Information from Statewide
Directory
The Health Provider Directory Advanced Query Use Case provides a
means for those Participating Organizations who wish to have access to
additional data elements that go beyond those available through the
basic Directory portal or API methods and have a need to extract, store
and analyze Directory data (Information can be stored over time for
other purposes).
Health Provider Search Service
The Health Provider Search Service allows HISP vendors to query and
retrieve Direct Secure Messaging addresses from the Statewide Health
Provider Directory.
Single Sign-On (SSO)Service (under
FSOA)
In this Use Case, the state is collaborating with HIN to conduct a
technical, logistical, and legal pilot of an identity exchange hub (IEH). The
IEH pilot will permit Medicaid to expand MICAM single sign-on (SSO)
services portal to access various State systems, e.g., licensure, public
health, and Medicaid EHR Incentive Program registration and
meaningful use attestation systems. The IEH activity establishes a
federated identity management infrastructure. IEH will eventually be
expanded to allow providers to authenticate to each of the sub-state
HIEs, the various provider portals to the state’s major insurance
companies, and a selection of the state's largest health systems.
The Common Key Service Use Case provides a consistent and reliable
way to match patients across multiple organizations, applications and
services, ensuring patient safety and high data integrity when data is
shared.

provide point-of-care access to critical patient medical and directive
information to enable efficient, SAFE treatment which incorporates the
patient's wishes by tying identified documents to the MPI.
The Medication Reconciliation Use Case calls for a transition-of-care
medication review. Medication Reconciliation is a regimented,
documented review to avoid drug errors during patient transfers.
Submit/Receive Statewide
Medication Reconciliation
Submit Cancer Notifications
Submit Immunizations
This Use Case is responsible for Population-based cancer surveillance in
Michigan for cancer control activities aimed at reducing the morbidity
and mortality of cancer, the second leading cause of death in the United
States. Michigan has an existing Michigan Cancer Surveillance Program
(MCSP, a.k.a. Cancer Registry), and this project will enhance it to receive
reporting form EHRs. The solution will use a slightly modified Michigan
implementation of the CDC’s National Program of Cancer Registries
(NPCR) Implementation Guide for Ambulatory Healthcare Provider
Reporting to Central Cancer Registries
http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/npcr/meaningful_use.htm as called out in
Meaningful Use Stage 2. This calls for a HL7 Clinical Document
Architecture (CDA) document being submitted for any patient encounter
that includes activities related to cancer, including diagnosis, referral,
treatment, and follow-up. This project will also include receiving HL7
version 2.5.1-based results messages from laboratories related to cancer
pathology results. The solution will use a slightly modified Michigan
implementation of the North American Association of Central Cancer
Registries (NAACCR) Pathology Laboratory Electronic Reporting Version
4.0 (April 2011) Implementation Guidelines
http://www.naaccr.org/StandardsandRegistryOperations/VolumeV.aspx.
Both types of messages will be received by the Data Hub and routed to
the enhanced Cancer Registry.
The Submit Immunizations Use Case is intended for immunization
providers and their vendors to assist in connecting to the state's Care
Improvement Registry. The Care Improvement Registry is an
immunization registry that compiles complete immunization histories for
children and adults in the state. Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems
that comply with Stage 1 Meaningful Use requirements must be able to
submit immunization administration data to their state registry.
Request Immunization
History/Forecast
Submit Syndromic Surveillance Data
Convert Syndromics
Submit Reportable Labs
Submit Birth Defect Notifications
The Request Immunization History/Forecast (Query By Parameter) Use
Case enables a Participating Organization to query for and obtain the list
of immunizations for a resident (adult or child), including those
immunizations received to date as well as a list and schedule of
vaccinations the patient is forecasted to receive in the future. The
Participating Organization will send an Immunization History and
Forecast query to HIN, the query will pass to the state data hub and
query the Care Improvement Registry data base. The query results will
be delivered back to the Participating Organization via the same
systems.
The Submit Syndromics Use Case sets forth the requirements for
Participating Organization to use HIN to submit Syndromic Surveillance
data through the state data hub to the Syndromic Surveillance System.
The Syndromic Surveillance System provides real-time situational
awareness of potential public health threats and emergencies. The
system sends alerts to public health officials when unusual increases in
symptom presentations are detected, and epidemiologists can analyze
findings, investigate further, and contact local public health agencies and
providers.
The Convert Syndromics Use Case positions HIN to receive a standard
ADT registration message, strip it of unneeded data, convert the
information into a syndromic message and submit it to the Syndromic
Surveillance System.
The Submit Reportable Labs Use Case sets forth requirements for
Participating Organizations to submit Reportable Lab data through the
state's data hub to the Disease Surveillance System. The Disease
Surveillance System is the communicable disease reporting system for
the state that helps public health officials identify outbreaks of diseases
such as the flu and meningitis. In addition, it facilitates coordination
among public health agencies, provides secure analysis of communicable
disease surveillance information, and addresses needs of traditional
disease surveillance.
The Submit Birth Defect Notifications Use Case will enhance the existing
registry by automating information submission for any patient
encounter that includes activities related to birth defects, including
diagnosis, referral, treatment, and follow-up.
Submit Newborn Screening - CCHD
(Pulse Oximetry)
This Use Case is responsible for collecting the Newborn Screening for
Critical Congenital Heart Defects (CCHD), Pulse Oximetry, Bloodpsot, and
Hearing test data as specified by the Platform. The Platform will issue an
acknowledgment or rejection notice back to the participant Source
System if available.The newborn screening mandate in Michigan Public
Health code section 333.5431 requires hospitals to screen the newborn
babies for, among other things, critical congenital heart defects (CCHD)
and report the CCHD test results to MDCH. Congenital heart defects are
the most common of birth defects, affecting nine in 1,000 newborns.
The most severe type is called critical congenital heart disease, requires
surgery or catheter intervention in the first year of life. CCHD remains
one of the most significant causes of infant death in the United States. A
simple non-invasive test called pulse oximetry helps detect CCHD in
newborns. Failure to detect CCHD early puts the baby at risk for death or
other serious complications within the first few days or weeks of life,
often requiring emergency room care.

In Progress
The Birth Registry Use Case automates submission of birth reporting to
state registries through the HIN common gateway.
The Chronic Disease Registry Use Case leverages the HIN infrastructure
to deliver Chronic Disease information to state registries. This enables
an epidemiologic understanding of prevention, management, and
control of chronic diseases in the state by supporting the surveillance,
planning, targeting and evaluation needs of a variety of departmental
programs, as well as identifies new trends and associations in chronic
disease prevention and control.
The Death Registry Use Case aims to automate death reporting from the
county level to the state's Electronic Death Registration System (EDRS)
through a HIN. The electronic death registry is interoperable with the
state HIE core services, including the MPI and integration engine, to
automatically send death records to systems within the Medicaid
Enterprise, streamlining the process and enabling death records to be
incorporated into the MMIS to prevent payments within a week of
death.

In Progress
The Behavioral Health Data Use Case provides a way to facilitate
behavioral health data which requires extended patient consent.
The Blind “Push” to a Known Partner Use Case involves sending
documents to destination partners specifically identified by the sender.
In this use case, the recipient systems need human intervention to
understand the content and purpose of the communication, as there is
no computer processable metadata, beyond the addressee and what
may be provided informally “on the cover page”. This use case is similar
to fax communication in use today within healthcare.
Certificate Registry
The Certificate Registry maintains Direct and other certificates to enable
discovery by query.
Clinical Information Collection for

Mobile Communications
The Mobile Communications Use Case requires a unified self-service
architecture that can be applied to voice, mobile web apps, or
interactive text messaging.
In the National ADT Notification Service, a patient is admitted to a
hospital in a different state than their active relevant physicians. The
hospital sends an ADT ‘Admit’ message to a HIN. HIN checks the Active
Care Relationship ServiceSM (ACRS) which contains information on what
providers are associated with this patient. HIN checks the Health
Provider Directory (HPD) to obtain the delivery preference for each of
those providers (i.e. a secure Direct email, an ADT message via HL7,
etc.). HIN notifies the providers, based on their delivery preferences,
that the patient has been admitted to the hospital. Other scenarios
include when a patient is discharged from the hospital or is transferred
to a different location (unit, bed) within the hospital or to another
facility outside of the hospital.

The Patient retrieval of Immunization History / Forecast Use Case allows
a resident to acquire their list of immunizations including those
immunizations received to date as well as a list and schedule of
vaccinations the patient is forecasted to receive in the future.
Patient Smoking Status
The Patient Smoking Status Use Case indicates documentation of
smoking history of patients thirteen and older and its access to the
information through the HIN.
Patient-Provider Message Exchange
The Patient-Provider Message Exchange Use Case is used for health
messages to be sent from one party to another over a direct secure
server.
The Payment Communications with Payers Use Case involves billing
related messages and supporting documentation. In lieu of having an
existing method of transport for healthcare claim/billing files (837s or
HCFA1500 or UB-92 formatted) Direct can be a method of delivery. In
addition it can be used to send supporting documentation necessary for
the payment of the claims in a secure manner.

The “Pull” via the Community Sharing Health Information Exchange Use
Case uses health information managed and shared within a
“community”. The shared records are tagged with metadata to be
queried and retrieved. No geographic restrictions are placed on the
boundary of such communities.
The Push Clinical Data to Patient Use Case automates transmission of
medical records to a patient's PHR through Direct. This helps supports
Meaningful Use Stage two requirement requirements. One of the most
critical features of patient participation in directed exchange is the
patient’s capacity to prevent the spread of bad information as it is
happening.
The Pushing ADTs to Payers Use Case will streamline notification to
payers when a patient is admitted to a hospital. Today, this process is
totally manual (phone or fax), non-standard, time intensive, and subject
to error.
