Panel discussion: the business case for hospital investment in high quality EHR data
Moderator: Mr. Geert Thienpont, Director of the European Institute for Innovation through Health Data

There are many opportunities for hospitals and health care systems to learn from routinely collected health data. Dipak Kalra will open the session by explaining the Learning Health System concept, its global movement, and how better use of health data can deliver value to hospitals, healthcare systems and to patients. It is vital for hospitals to invest in, and actively learn from, their routinely collected EHR data to gain insights into how to optimise care pathways, to improve health outcomes and to prepare for the future where healthcare funders will reward and reimburse the delivery of value rather than simply performing healthcare activities.

Bart Vannieuwenhuyse will introduce the audience to the many ways in which the pharma industry is analysing routinely collected data from hospitals to improve the design of clinical trials, to assist hospitals with faster recruitment of the most suitable patients, exchanging data between EHR systems and clinical research systems. The big data landscape is becoming more and more important for clinical research, and Bart will present the work of IMI projects that are scaling up health data availability across Europe.

An important success factor for the reuse of hospital EHRs for research is the quality of the data. Pascal Coorevits will summarise state-of-the-art research in the dimensions of data quality that are most important for organisational learning and research, and the methods for assessing the quality of the data. A case study of a recent data quality assessment in heart failure undertaken at a hospital in Spain will be presented. Pascal will introduce the i~HD data quality service that is available to European hospitals.

This session will examine a practical example of a clinical research platform product that is being connected to many hospitals across Europe, and globally. Brecht Claerhout will demonstrate the InSite platform. He will describe its information flows and explain how it has been possible to design the platform and its connection to European hospitals in full compliance with the GDPR. The value of using such a platform for clinical research and for hospital quality improvement will be outlined, and flow into the panel discussion.

The session will close with a panel discussion, taking questions from the audience, on the business case for raising the level of investment in hospitals having high quality EHR data and reusing it for research.

Workshop 4: Challenges and roadmap for Mental Health

Chair: Mr. Paul Bomke, CEO Pfalzklinikum, Service Provider of Mental Health and Neurological Services

The EU Commission had already mentioned in 2017 that the future of psychiatric and psycho-social care lies in the expansion of community based services for mental Health. Traditional psychiatric hospitals are losing importance in this scenario. And the continued involvement of users in the development of psycho-social services is and will neglecting the importance of classic professional power and governance structures. Even if this develops differently in the member states, one challenge becomes crsytal-clear:

The psychiatric hospital must become a complex psycho-social provider, and has to learn to think "systemically" and see itself as an equal partner in the design of mental health services with other stake-holders.

In the workshop, using the example of the WHO care model, developmental lines will be shown and examples discussed how this transformation process can succeed. In addition to representatives from the psychiatric hospital landscape, representatives of European community psychiatry will contribute their experience.
