APeX – IDR Integration
3
Connecting APeX Data to the IDR
 Epic and IT team have agreed on an approach for
bringing Epic information into IDR
 APeX Data will be transformed and loaded into IDR
 Draft ready for estimates for cost and timing of
including APeX data into the IDR, will be refined over
next few weeks

IDR and Clarity Environments
• Operational, financial and government mandated
reporting will occur out of Epic’s Operational Data
Store ‘Clarity’, research users will work in IDR
• Epic-provided reports and custom report
development in ‘Clarity’ are expected to be a
significant part of APeX implementation
• After operational data is brought into IDR, we need
to develop data marts, views, user training and
support to make data accessible and easier to use
IDR will Conform to i2b2
 i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside)
– NIH-funded National Center for Biomedical Computing based at
Partners HealthCare System
– Scalable informatics framework; enables clinical researchers to
use existing clinical data for discovery research
– When combined with IRB-approved genomic data, facilitates
design of targeted therapies for individual patients with diseases
having genetic origins
– Currently enjoys wide international adoption by the CTSA network,
academic health centers, and industry
 Institutions with Epic and i2b2

Proposed Data Access Categories in IDR
 De-Identified Data / Limited Data Sets
– Available for cohort selection
– Requires MyResearch account
 Identified Data
– Requires CHR approval for named data sets and also usage
– Differential usage or change of scope requires new approval
 “Finance” Data
– Requires another approval beyond CHR
– Need to establish governance body
8
Proposed Policy on Use of Data
 Access to UCSF data is provided to departments and individuals for
identified clinical-, business- and research-related purposes as
approved by medical center and campus administration
 We allow minimally necessary access to sensitive data when it is
required for authorized activities
– Need clear agreements, policies and procedures for data access and
governance
– Data User Agreement
 Access is restricted to users who are trained in the meaning and
appropriate use of data
 Unauthorized use or redistribution of data outside of approved uses
or to unauthorized parties is not permitted
– may result in loss of data access privileges
– other disciplinary action ???

Proposed Project Timeline – Phase 1
10
Phase 1 Scope and Deliverables
 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Medical Center
regarding data use
 APeX data is available in I2B2 to trained and certified users
– Initial full load of APeX data to IDR
– Automated daily loads
 Data security and governance for APeX data in IDR
 Basic and advanced user training defined and prepared
 Key data views or marts mapped
– Patient Information: Demographics, Vital Stats, Insurance,
Household size, income
– Clinical Information: Encounter, Disposition/Discharge, Diagnosis,
Procedures, Labs, Medications, Radiology
 Process for creating and reviewing additional views
 Documentation / Training / Support
11
Phase 1 Tentative Resources and Budget
 ~725 Person Days
 Total Cost: ~$600K + Hardware/Software Costs TBD
 Will be refined over next 1-2 weeks
12
Phase 1 Risk Factors
 Overbooked resources
– Preferable resources assigned on other projects
– Will we be able to reallocate?
 Dependency on APeX launch dates
– Project assumes data availability on April 1st and October 1st
– Any APeX schedule change has an impact
 Refinements
– Technical task designs will get refined over implementation
– Design changes have an impact

MyResearch Improvements
Synchronized with APeX-IDR Launch
 User Feedback from Survey
–
–
–
–
Didn’t know it existed
Takes too long to get an account
Difficult to use (“where are my files?”)
Does not have all the data/tools I need
 Short Term Fix: Usability!
– Automated Provisioning System: quicker process to get on
– Task-Oriented User Interface
– Streamlined document sharing
 Brand launch as “MyResearch 2.0” or “Next Generation”
– Synchronize with APeX-IDR integration phase 1 release
– Improved UI + New data + Automated feeds
16
MyResearch Future Phases
 New Tools
– Better Reporting and Data Visualization (Cognos?)
– Easier Document Sharing + Portal (Liferay+Alfresco?)
– R? Filemaker Pro?
 More Self-Serve Ability to Create Specialized
Research Data Marts
– Core Data Feed from IDR
– Combined with Other Data Feeds Specific to Research
– Integrate data from REDCap
 Establish Long Term Roadmap and Engage Users
in Process

MyResearch Improvement Next Steps
 Requirements gathering and prioritization
– Steering Committee
– Focus Groups
 Resource Requirements, Project plan, and Budget
– Present project plan + estimates at next steering committee
meeting
– Synchronize first release with APeX-IDR project launch
