What we’ll (try to) cover

• Standardisation:– AORTA, the Dutch Healthcare Infrastructure– HL7v3, Vocabulary, Identification, Schema’s– Web Services: SOAP, WSDL, WS-Security

• Truth, Trust and Belief:– Authentication– Digital Signatures

• Versioning

The Netherlands

• “AORTA” is the national backbone

• Healthcare Information Systems at institutions and GP’s will be online 24x7

• No clinical data at backbone, only an index of where clinical information resides

• Clinical data stays at the source

• Only possible with dense infrastructure

• Patient, provider registries et cetera

NICTIZ & Dutch Healthcare

• Communication between: – Healthcare Provider (GP, hospital etc.)– Healthcare Information Broker (HIB)

• HIB provides:– index of which parties have patient data– no patient data itself– messaging services– aggregation services

• Health Level Seven version 3 (HL7v3)

AORTA

• all messages go through healthcare information broker

• three basic patterns:– HIS sends message to other HIS, HIB just

routes– HIS sends message to HIB (mainly for registry

updates and queries)– HIS queries several other HISses, HIB does

registry lookups, accumulates data

Storyboard

Mevrouw Jansen komt langs bij apotheek ‘De Gulle Gaper’ met een handgeschreven recept van haar huisarts Dr. van Beek. Het recept is voor 2x daags 1 tablet Diazepam 250 mg, gedurende 4 weken. De apotheker van de Gulle Gaper, Dr. Poeder, pakt een een doosje met 5 strips van 10 tabletten en voegt daar een 6e strip van tabletten aan toe. Het geheel van 60 tabletten Diazepam 250 mg wordt overhandigd aan mevr. Jansen, inclusief een bijsluiter en met het gebruiksvoorschrift (van de huisarts) op de verpakking.

Identification in HL7

• HL7v3 datatype Instance Identifier<patientID>

<value extension="012345672" root="2.16.840.1.113883.2.4.6.3"/>

</patientID>

• roots are OID’s (Object IDentifier)

• ITU-T ASN.1

• hierarchy

• extension is local identification system – in this case, BSN (social security number)

Schema Issues

Page 45: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

Schema's serve multiple masters

• Schema’s serve more than one purpose– design– validation– contract– code generation

• those purposes often need different Schema’s

Page 46: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

Schema's serve multiple masters

• design+ reuseability, composability, simplicity- performance

• validation+ performance, strictness, error messages, completeness- reuseability, composability, simplicity, readability

• contract+ readability, strictness, completeness- performance

• code generation+ simplicity, readability- reuseability, composability

The HL7v3 Schema’s

• Let’s look at an example

• Get Person Demographics Query

• Send in person id

• Get name, address, birthdate et cetera

The HL7v3 Schema’s

• The XML document, though abbreviated, isn’t difficult– (SOAP omitted here...)– Transmission Wrapper: message-id, creation date– Act Wrapper: query issuer etc.– Payload: person-id

• The Schema is very simple– 5 includes and 1 element– but not very readable!– the schema inclusion tree is very complex

Page 52: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

The HL7v3 Schema’s

• Schema’s should be readable– tools can solve this– but they make you dependent on the tool

• Therefore: flatten the Schema’s– remove all includes– put included schema’s where they belong

• For readability: make the Schema resemble the instance

• Readable Schema’s generate readable code!

The HL7v3 Schema’s

Page 55: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

The HL7v3 Schema’s

• HL7 datatypes– TS: Point in Time– CS: Simple Coded Value– ST: Character String

• Translate to XSD– datetime, string

• HL7 datatypes predate XSD datatypes• With a lot of HL7 datatypes, nothing happens

except translation to XSD datatypes• Do this in the source, generates much more

readable code

The HL7v3 Schema’s

James Clark:

“validity is a relationship between a document and a schema, not a property of

a document”

Page 66: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

The HL7v3 Schema’s

schema’s can be equivalent:

when two schema’s consider

the same set of documents valid

the schema’s are equivalent

Security with SSL

• Works well only in simple scenario’s

• There is no HL7v3 XML at the client

• The client is (relatively) unsecure

• SSL lays an impenatrable tunnel across the instution’s secure zone

• SSL from server to server is fine, but:

• provides no care provider authentication

Page 83: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

Context: clients

• all hospitals, GP’s, pharmacists, other healthcare pros

• clients: any kind of client• latest .NET / Java• older dev environments (Delphi, BV, etc.)• thin client/browser• XSLT heavy• XML / no XML• WS-* / no WS-*• HL7v3 / no HL7v3

Page 84: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

Context: HL7v3

• no HL7v3 at client (HL7v2, OZIS, other)• not all data at client

– Act.id– medication codes– patient id (BSN) not yet, is reasonable

demand

• destination not always known at client• either: require all data available at client• or: sign subset of data

Page 85: De Zorg digitaliseren met  XML, HL7v3 en Web Services

Marc de [email protected]

‘Lightweight’ authentication token

• X.509 style– message id

• nonce• provides unique identification of message• (if duplicate removal has already taken place)

– time to live• security semantics can expire• time to store & check nonce

SSL security

• premises:– healthcare pro keeps smartcard + pin safe– software to establish SSL tunnel not corrupted– PKI, RSA etc. not broken

• assertion:– healthcare pro sets up SSL tunnel

• assumption:– messages going over SSL tunnel come from healthcare pro

• weakness:– insertion of fake messages in SSL tunnel

• measures:– abort SSL tunnel after period of inactivity, refresh regularly

Lightweight token security

• premises:– healthcare pro keeps smartcard + pin safe– software to sign token not corrupted– PKI, RSA etc. not broken

• assertion:– healthcare pro signed auth token

• assumption:– message and auth token belong together

• weakness:– fake message attached to valid token

Lightweight token security

• signedData:– message id– notBefore / notAfter– addressedParty

• coSignedData– patient id (BSN)– message type (HL7 trigger event id)

• only possible to retrieve same kind of data for same patient at same time from same destination

• weakness: tampering with other message parameters• for queries: acceptable (privacy not much more broken)• for prescription: use full digital signature

Hospital workflow

• doctor makes round

• 360 seconds per patient

• nurse has file ready

• retrieval times are not acceptable

• pre-signing tokens and pre-fetching data just in time

• possible with auth tokens, not (so much) with SSL

Authentication alternatives

• Authentication tokens in SOAP Headers separate them from the content

• HL7 sometimes allows multiple payloads, making this problem worse

• The token has to travel across layers with the paylaod

• This violates layering principles

WS-*

• WS-* is confused about whether it is a document format or a message format

• document: relevant to the end user

• message: relevant to the mailman

• keep metadata with the document

• putting document metadata in SOAP headers violates layering design principles

Some philosophy

• “The President of the United States is John McCain”

• “Karen believes ‘the President of the United States is John McCain’ ”

• “John says that ‘the President of the United States is John McCain’ ”

• “Dr. Jones says: ‘Mr. Smith has the flu’ ”

What we’ve (tried to) cover

• Standardisation:– AORTA, the Dutch Healthcare Infrastructure– HL7v3, Vocabulary, Identification, Schema’s– Web Services: SOAP, WSDL, WS-Security

• Truth, Trust and Belief:– Authentication– Digital Signatures

• Versioning
