Governance

CRISP, in coordination with the MHCC, has developed a governance model that includes a Board of Advisors to provide guidance and input to the CRISP Board of Directors on certain key decisions during the development and operations of the HIE.  The Board of Advisors is intended to be broad-based to ensure that a breadth of interested organizations have the opportunity to participate and represent their constituencies.  There are currently over 30 organizations represented.

The Board of Advisors is organized into the four committees below.

Clinical Advisory Board

Committee reviews and provides guidance surrounding CRISP’s plan for exchange service implementations. This includes providing a clinical perspective on CRISP activities,and helping to prioritize HIE service deployments. The committee also assists in gathering information and perspectives from the broader stakeholder community pertaining to HIE services, assists in garnering support and use of HIE services, and assists in assessing the value associated with various CRISP service offerings in terms of clinical relevance and service value in various care settings.  (Click here for a list of members)

Exchange Technology Advisory Board

Committee reviewed and commented on the exchange technology request for proposal, participated in the RFP response evaluation and selection process, and provided guidance and expertise on infrastructure and other technology related decisions. Responsibilities also include: providing guidance on network security and data encryption best practices; providing oversight of the performance of technology solutions, once deployed; assessing specific technology solutions surrounding areas such as single sign-on, audit protocols, role-based access, and master patient indexing; and assisting in the development of strategies for integrating end-point.  (Click here for a list of members)

Finance Advisory Board

Committee reviews and provides guidance on CRISP revenue and pricing models. It is refining and modifying assumptions associated with the CRISP revenue model, evaluating how federal funding requirements impact existing revenue planning, evaluating how federal funding opportunities tie into CRISP financing, and assessing specific HIE services with regards to finanical sustainability.  (Click here for a list of members)

Small Practice Advisory Board

Committee will review and provide recommendations on the progress of the Regional Extension Center (REC). It will provide a clinical perspective on the challenges of implementing and achieving full adoption of an EHR system.  Responsibilities will also include: reviewing best practices and establishing benchmarks for the implementation and meaningful use of an EHR, assisting in garnering support for the use of REC and MSO services, and assisting in gathering information and perspective from the broader provider community on the implementation.  (Click here for a list of members)

HIE Policy Board

A CRISP Policy Board has also been formed by the MHCC.  The board has oversight authority for establishing the policies that govern the statewide HIE.  (For more information about the Policy Board click here.)
