This page documents the activities of the IHE Pharmacy (PHARM) domain in doing strategic planning.
Strategic Priorities
The PHARM domain currently plans to work in the following areas:
- Improve information exchange between healthcare providers and organizations that depend on Pharmacy related workflows and processes
- Develop ways to automate collaborative workflow between physicians and pharmacists in both community and hospital pharmacy environment
- Promote widespread adoption and implementation of IHE PHARM profiles
- Marketing and promoting the profiles in regions outside of Europe (US, Canada, Asia, Latin America, etc.)
- Establishing and maintaining collaboration to other IHE domains
- Establishing and maintaining collaboration to HL7 Pharmacy
- Establishing and maintaining collaboration to ISO TC215 WG6 Pharmacy
- Establishing communication channel to NCPDP
- The dominant themes for the next few years will involve work around Community Pharmacy workflows, Hospital Pharmacy workflows, Medication Documentation and Hospital supply chain
Capabilities
The PHARM domain has defined the following categories to organize the profiles it has published thus far.
Capabilities | Description | PHARM profiles (2011) |
---|---|---|
Community Pharmacy | Profiles in the Community Pharmacy category support the ability to handle the entire workflow from the act of the prescription of a medication to the dispense of the medication to the patient (e.g. at a pharmacy) in a non-hospital environment (primary care). This includes the ability to submit, locate/list and retrieve patient specific prescription, pharmaceutical advice and dispense information, which is entirely based on the HL7 CDA standard. | CMPD, PRE, PADV, DIS |
Hospital Pharmacy | Profiles in the Hospital Pharmacy category support the ability to handle the entire workflow from the act of the prescription of a medication to the administration of the medication to the patient (e.g. by a nurse) in a hospital environment, which is entirely based on HL7 v2 messaging standards. | HMW |
Categories
The PHARM domain has identified the following areas of expertise and weaknesses.
Category | Areas of expertise | Areas of outreach |
---|---|---|
Common | Medication Documentation, Medication catalog, | HL7, ISO, International |
Community Pharmacy | Medication Prescription and Dispense workflow, HL7 CDA, HL7 Pharmacy CMETs, European epSOS project | HL7, epSOS, International |
Hospital Pharmacy | Pharmacy workflow in hospital environment, Distribution and supply of items, HL7v2 messaging, HL7 Pharmacy | HL7, International |
