Session 327: Downtime – Can We Work Without Computers?

Presenter: Arthur Young

While every system has some downtime, MEDITECH has always been better than most. The industry talks about three nines (99.9%), four nines (99.99%) and five nines (99.999%) – that’s about as good as it gets. But what if MEDITECH is up, and you can’t get to it?

As our environments have gotten more complex, our infrastructure has introduced more potential points of failure. It is no longer the case that your device is connected to the host via a physical cable. Now it may go through any number of intermediary connections before actually reaching the host system. Each link must be examined for its own up time.

Coincidental with the growth of the environment is the growth of the applications and the increased use of on-line and real-time documentation and processing (eMAR, PCOE, etc). This means our sensitivity to downtime becomes even more acute.

This presentation will talk about the different aspects of downtime and the different approaches to data protection and service protection, identifying points of failure and creating policies and procedures to protect against them, and tools to help identify and quantify existing risk.

Session 328: Report Delivery via HL7

Presenter: Arthur Young

HL7 by itself does not constitute plug and play. As an extension of report delivery to clinician offices, reports are now being requested to be integrated into physician’s EMR systems. HL7 by itself does not constitute plug and play. This presentation will discuss some of the requirements, obstacles, and experiences in implementing this capability.
