Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE)

IHE is an intitiative that brings healthcare professionals, healthcare information specialists and the vendors that supply systems to healthcare together to solve complex, healthcare information management problems that span multiple information systems from multiple vendors. The IHE Process involves identifying a problematic information management process and existing information technology standards that could be used to solve the particular problem. These Problem-Solution statements are termed, Integration Profiles. Integration Profiles are codified in Technical Frameworks that detail precisely the agreed upon solution. Vendors can then implement the Technical Frameworks and test their implementations at Connectathons. Customers can then view Conformance Statements and include IHE functionality requirements in their purchase documents.

Systems that support IHE Integration Profiles interoperate better, are easier to implement, and help care providers use information more effectively. The goal is efficient delivery of optimal patient care. Several hundred products support one or more IHE Profiles.

IHE is organized into Domains, each of which addresses the problems in its area of activity. Each domain is made up of Planning and Technical Committees that develop the Integration Profiles and Technical Frameworks for that domain. Participate.

The current Domains are:
