Standards Process Maturity

Implementation Maturity

Adoption Level

Federally Required

Cost

Test Tool Availability
Implementation Specification IHE Cross Community Access for Imaging (XCA-I) Final Pilot rating 1 No Free Yes
Implementation Specifications the combination of IHE-XCPD (Cross-Community Patient Discovery) and IHE-PIX (Patient Identifier Cross-Reference) Final Production rating 4 No Free No

 

Limitations, Dependencies, and Preconditions for Consideration: Applicable Security Patterns for Consideration:
  • IHE-PIX and IHE-XCPD are used for the purposes of patient matching and to support this interoperability need.
  • See IHE projects in the Interoperability Proving Ground.
  • Secure Message Router – securely route and enforce policy on inbound and outbound messages without interruption of delivery.
  • Authentication Enforcer – centralized authentication processes.
  • Authorization Enforcer – specified policies access control.
  • Credential Tokenizer – encapsulate credentials as a security token for reuse  (e.g., – SAML, Kerberos).
