IHE Patient Care Coordination (PCC) domain was established in July 2005 to deal with integration issues that cross providers, patient problems or time. It deals with general clinical care aspects such as document exchange, order processing, and coordination with other specialty domains. PCC also addresses workflows that are common to multiple specialty areas and the integration needs of specialty areas that do not have a separate domain within IHE.

PCC Vision

The vision of Patient Care Coordination is to continually improve patient outcomes through the use of technology connecting patients and their care providers across healthcare disciplines and care paths.

PCC Mission

The mission of Patient Care Coordination is to develop and maintain interoperability profiles to support coordination of care for patients where care crosses providers, patient conditions and health concerns, or time.


The Patient Care Coordination Domain is sponsored by:

HIMSS the Health Information Management Systems Society
ACP the American College of Physicians

Committee Activities in Prior Years

Participation

As a Clinician / Patient Advocate

Get involved in the planning committee. This is where the clinical problems are discussed and prioritized. The planning committee is an open group and is interested in having your input! Bring us your interoperability problems! You can also help by participating in the himss showcase scenario definitions.

You can do this by:

  1. Send us a note at ihe@himss.org saying you’re interested so we can get you on the list-serves.
  2. Come to face to face meetings, and attend the telephone conferences.
  3. Submit your profile proposals by:
    • Fill out this PCC Profile Proposal Template.
    • Submit the propsal draft to us.
    • Attend the October planning meeting to help clarify and prioritize your proposal
    • Follow up by submitting a formal proposal
    • Attend the joint planning/technical meeting to explain your idea to the technical committee
