Incidence of cancer continues to impact the health system

3

AIHW: In 2013-14 there were around 936,000 cancer-related hospitalisations - an increase of 44% from 2001–02, when there were around 649,000 cancer-related hospitalisations. Over the same period, the age- standardised cancer-related hospitalisation rate increased by 8.9% from 337 per 10,000 population to 367 per 10,000. The top five most common reasons for cancer-related hospitalisations accounted for 96% of all hospitalisations where the principal diagnosis was a cancer-related treatment or service.

With aging population, cancer has stretched developed countries’ health care systems in terms of financial, manpower and staff required to look after and manage treatment for cancer patients.

How an OIS can help

  • Managing treatment plans, dose planning, image based decision.
  • Improving accuracy of treatment
  • Accessing data from multiple sites, reducing paper based data,
  • nline image reviewing in 2D and 3D, transferring data to external

sites.

  • Giving access to patient for making appointments, getting

knowledge about before and after treatments, joining support groups

  • Reduction in cost by eliminating clerical staff, reducing paper/film

usage, delays in results transfer and reduces patient waiting time

  • Giving patients access to their treatment summary, disease

specific knowledge related to side,-late effects, health monitoring and support services along with managing appointments and print

  • r fill questionnaires or forms before appointment.

Benefits sought for Oncology Platforms

Improved quality of care eg by connecting electronic records to enable sharing of clinical data together with genomic data, registry data and patient self-reported data on a large scale. More appropriate and tailored therapeutic protocol to be developed for each patient More rapid diagnosis and treatment eg linked systems Improved integrated care e.g. through shared records and collaborative working tools Improved efficiency eg through reduced clerical staff Lower costs e.g. through dashboards which give insights into expensive, possibly avoidable treatments 5 Monitoring the progress

  • f patients in their

treatment, to enable more informed and improved decisions about patient care

Major functions of OIS

  • Integration of radiation oncology, particle therapy and medical
  • ncology patient data in a single database
  • Accessibility of patient data for multi-disciplinary teams from

multiple locations with second by second data update

  • Seamless connectivity to any linear accelerator & treatment

planning system

  • Evaluation of diagnosis-specific data to compare acute

responses to treatment and long-term clinical outcomes

  • Development of disease-specific clinical protocols to facilitate a

standard, consistent quality of care

  • Monitoring radiation dose and reviewing treatment images to

determine if plan changes are required

  • Calculating medication doses for entire treatment based on

pre-defined dosing rules specific for each pathway

What our study is aiming to examine

Phase One of the project reports on a systematic literature review

  • f three international platforms that have the potential to deliver

high-value patient centred care to cancer patients in an Australian context and examines a range of factors including functionality, usability, and translation of such platforms to the Australian healthcare context.

Victorian Digital Health Guiding Principles

  • Clinical engagement – clinicians must be actively involved in

championing health technologies, realising expected benefits and efficiencies.

  • Information and analytics – information should be available across

the full, unified continuum of carers/researchers to enable demand management and personalised healthcare.

  • Adherence to agreed standards and interoperability – explicit

adoption of greed standards facilitates information flow and advances interoperability and quality of technology solutions.

  • Robust and transparent governance
  • Value-for-money and Business-driven – decision making should

be made by and for business reasons rather than be driven by the technology.

National Strategic Principles

  • Putting users at the centre
  • Ensuring privacy and security
  • Fostering agile collaboration
  • Driving a culture of safety and quality
  • Improving equity of access
  • Leveraging existing assets and capabilities
  • Judicious use of taxpayer money - ensure that investments

are assessed on the basis of delivering the best health and care outcomes for all Australians.
