Health 2.0 and ONC Announce the Winner of the Reporting Device Adverse Events Challenge
SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire -06/07/12)- Today, Health 2.0 and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) are announcing the winner of the Investing in Innovation initiative's (i2) Reporting Device Adverse Events Challenge. The i2 initiative utilizes prizes and challenges to facilitate innovation and obtain solutions to intractable health IT problems. Aligned with the Obama administration's innovation agenda, it is the first federal program to operate under the authority of the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act.
The Challenge -- which launched on September 12, 2011 -- called attention to adverse events related to medical devices. With the spread of electronic health records, medical devices will continue to play increasing roles in monitoring and collecting patient data. As patients play larger roles in managing their health, the devices that are used in hospitals, clinics and homes must become easier to use and monitor. The United States has a limited system for the post-market surveillance of medical devices, specifically as relating to monitoring product safety and effectiveness. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) operates the Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database, which catalogs reports of adverse events involving medical devices used in a variety of settings.
In order to improve the post-market surveillance of medical devices, it is important to innovate beyond the MAUDE database. ONC identified a need for a system that increased the rate of reporting of adverse events, improved the quality of the reported data, collected and analyzed information on providers using devices and patients receiving the devices and makes the data more dynamic and continuous to identify trends in real-time. The Reporting Device Adverse Events Challenge tasked teams with creating applications to meet these needs.
"This was one of our most technically difficult i2 Challenges. We commend the participating teams for their efforts and encourage them to continue to work on their products after the Challenge," said Wil Yu, Special Assistant for Innovations at ONC.
As the winner, Team IOSTREAM will receive $25,000 in prizes. A brief summary of the winning application follows:
IOSTREAM -- submitted by Doug Brown -- the MedDAERS system by IOSTREAM is a web-portal for health professionals and consumers to voluntarily report the adverse events, product problems and product use errors associated with medical devices. Submitted reports are converted into electronic versions of the MedWatch 3500 form. The website has two entry points -- the first is for users who wish to fill out and submit voluntary reports, the second is those with login credentials and is used to view the XML formatted voluntary reports that have been submitted.

Health-Care Challenge Evokes Roosevelt New Deal High Court Clash
President Barack Obama greets supporters in a hangar after he disembarked from Air Force One at the Ellington Airport in Houston, Texas. Photo: Jewel Samad/AFP/Getty Images In reviewing Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, the U.S. Supreme Court has pushed into territory it hasn’t approached since the days of Franklin D. Roosevelt: ruling on a president’s signature legislative victory in the midst of his re-election campaign.
Justices will take more time to hear arguments -- six hours over three days next week -- than for any other case in the last 44 years.
The court will determine whether the government can force millions of people to obtain insurance. The decision may influence the outcome of November’s presidential election. The potential legal impact has few parallels in the court’s history.
“This is a central challenge to the modern Constitution, which was fashioned during the New Deal and then elaborated further during the civil rights revolution,” said Bruce Ackerman, a professor at Yale Law School in New Haven, Connecticut and author of “The Decline and Fall of the American Republic” and 14 other books. “This goes to the very foundations of modern American government.”
Challengers to the health law, which Obama signed in 2010, include a group of 26 states, led by Florida. They are opposing both the requirement that Americans either obtain insurance or pay a penalty, and the law’s expansion of Medicaid, the federal- state health-care program for the poor.
Paul Clement, a Washington lawyer who served as a solicitor general under George W. Bush, will argue on behalf of the states challenging the law. Current Solicitor General Donald Verrilli will lead the defense of the measure.
The law will expand health coverage to an estimated 32 million Americans who lack insurance by 2016, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Obama spent a year pushing it through Congress. Democrats described the law’s passage as comparable to the creation of Social Security (USBOSOCS) and Medicare (FFSOMED) for the elderly and disabled.
“Today, after almost a century of trying, today after over a year of debate, today after all the votes have been tallied, health insurance reform becomes law in the United States of America,” Obama said in March 2010 before putting his signature on the measure.
Republican presidential candidates, including former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, are campaigning against the health- care measure, saying it should be repealed.
“This is an exceptionally important case in every dimension,” said Stephen Shapiro, a partner at Mayer Brown LLP (1120L) in Chicago and co-author of a treatise on Supreme Court litigation. “At issue is the constitutionality of a major act of Congress affecting every person and every employer in the nation, with big economic consequences all around.”
The closest comparable election-year scenario was 76 years ago, involving Roosevelt’s New Deal, a series of social and economic programs adopted in response to the Great Depression. It wasn’t a single piece of legislation, as the health-care law is, and included the creation of Social Security.
The court struck down parts of the New Deal while leaving others intact. The biggest decision came in 1935, the year before Roosevelt’s re-election, when the court struck down much of the National Industrial Recovery Act. The measure allowed industries to create trade associations that set quotas and fixed prices.
In 1936, an election year, the Supreme Court backed Roosevelt on one part of the New Deal and rejected several others. In January, the court struck down the Agricultural Adjustment Act, which paid farmers not to plant on their land, as a way to increase the value of crops. The court heard the case, U.S. v. Butler, in December 1935 and issued its decision the next month, 10 months before the election.
Roosevelt didn’t campaign against the court for its anti- New Deal decisions, said Jeff Shesol, a former speech writer for President Clinton and author of “Supreme Power: Franklin Roosevelt vs. The Supreme Court.”
After winning re-election with about 61 percent of the vote, Roosevelt unsuccessfully attempted to pack the court with as many as six additional justices who would be more sympathetic to his programs.
A decision in the health-care case will probably come in late June, about 4 months before the November elections. The outcome will provide campaign fodder for Obama or his Republican challengers.
The health-care case also is unusual because of the length of time the justices have scheduled to hear arguments from March 26 to 28.
The most recent arguments that lasted at least as long were in December, 1967, said Jerry Goldman, a professor at the Chicago-Kent College of Law and director of the Oyez Project, a multimedia archive devoted to the Supreme Court.
That year, the justices consolidated 14 cases over natural gas rate regulation into eight hours of arguments.
Other more widely known cases from the 1960s -- landmark decisions upholding the Voting Rights Act and requiring that police warn criminal suspects of their rights -- featured arguments that went on for almost as long, or longer, than is scheduled for health care.
The justices heard about 7 1/2 hours of arguments in South Carolina v. Katzenbach, the 1966 case challenging the voting rights measure, which outlawed racial discrimination.
The same year, the court heard nearly six hours of arguments in Miranda v. Arizona, which resulted in the mandate that police tell criminal suspects their rights upon arrest.
In its early years, the court didn’t put time limits on arguments and they sometimes stretched for days, said James O’Hara, a retired professor at Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore and trustee of the Supreme Court Historical Society.
As its docket grew, the court began imposing limits. It went from two hours for each side in 1849, to an hour in 1925 and then to half an hour in 1970, said Shapiro
The justices have made exceptions for complex and groundbreaking cases.
Eight and a half hours of arguments were heard in 1952 for the Brown v. Board of Education school desegregation case and six and a half more when it was re-argued the next year, said Timothy Johnson, a political science professor at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. A follow-up case on how to implement the decision took up more than 13 hours over three days in 1955, he said.
The time devoted to arguments in the health-care case indicates they see “major constitutional issues” that need to be argued, O’Hara said. “This is extraordinary really that this amount of time would be allotted.”
Argument length alone doesn’t measure a case’s significance, said Mark Tushnet, a legal historian at Harvard Law School in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The court heard 90 minutes of argument in 2000 when the court resolved the deadlock over vote counting in Florida, ensuring George W. Bush’s victory over Al Gore.
The justices allotted three hours for its 1974 consideration of whether President Richard Nixon had to turn over audio tapes to Congress during the Watergate investigation. Nixon resigned soon after the court’s 8-0 ruling requiring him to release the tapes.
The political implications of the health care case are “much more ambiguous” than when the justices directly decided the fate of a president, Tushnet said.
“Any result could aid Obama or aid Romney or whoever the Republican candidate is,” he said.

Bits Blog: The Future of High-Tech Health Care - and the Challenge
Demos, talks and a paper-plate dinner buffet were the fare last Friday evening at the Computer Museum in Mountain View, Calif., and the subject was the high-tech future of health care. The gathering was hosted by FutureMed, a health-care program that is part of Singularity University, a networked organization dedicated to exploring how disruptive technologies can sweep across whole industries and society.
The technologies on display were impressive, often inspiring — like the wearable-robots, or mechanical exoskeletons, made by Ekso Bionics, to enable people with spinal cord injuries to walk again; or I.B.M.’s Watson question-answering computer that is being morphed into a doctors’ smart assistant.
Dr. Daniel Kraft, executive director of the FutureMed program, pointed to a series of fast-changing technologies including biotechnology, nanotechnology, robotics, artificial intelligence and the surge in new data to mine for insights, or Big Data. “Exponential technologies are all around us,” Dr. Kraft said.
Dr. Martin Kohn, chief medical scientist at I.B.M. research, sketched out the future path in health care for the technology behind Watson, the computer that last year outwitted the best human players of Jeopardy!, the TV question-answering game. “You’ll not be surprised to learn that the executive leaders of I.B.M. fairly quickly decided that playing Jeopardy! was not a long-term business model,” Dr. Kohn told the audience of a few hundred people.
But the core transferable technology, Dr. Kohn explained, was the artificial intelligence software that made it possible for Watson to read and understand 200 million digital pages, and deliver an answer within three seconds. In health care, Dr. Kohn said, “we are overwhelmed by information. And we’re only as good as what we know.”
So Dr. Watson, it is.
Watson, he added, is not going to make diagnoses, not give a physician a single answer, but make suggestions, recommendations and determine probabilities. The more information Watson is fed, Dr. Kohn said, the more it learns and understands, in its way.
One area where the technology’s learning and recommendation capabilities may be particularly useful is in determining treatment regimens for patients with more than one chronic condition. And such patients account for a large share of the nation’s health care costs.
There are well-defined treatment guidelines, Dr. Kohn said, for individual conditions like heart disease, diabetes, asthma and emphysema. But the guidelines are far less helpful for patients with more than one condition. For example, a beta-blocker drug is good for heart disease, but bad for asthma, Dr. Kohn noted. What are the trade-offs and what are the probabilities?
Watson, Dr. Kohn said, can “really help us learn about these multiply-challenged patients.” In general, he added, Watson can be a powerful tool in moving toward the long-sought goal in health care of making more decisions based on data and a surer grasp of the relevant scientific evidence — so-called evidence-based medicine — instead of experience and intuition.
The Watson technology, Dr. Kohn added, has the potential to be a “profound enabler of the transformation of health care.”
As do some of the other technologies displayed at FutureMed. But whether that happens or not, I’d suggest, has at least as much to do with economics and policy as technology.
Let’s take Watson as an example. It’s first big test-run in health care is with Wellpoint, an insurer. I know, I know, there are no “insurers” anymore, only health management organizations. But an insurer makes money by maximizing revenue — premiums — and minimizing expenses — procedures, lab tests, hospitalizations and treatment.
Watson will do what it’s programmed to do. Eliminating unnecessary, and often repetitive, medical tests is a big cost-saving target — and a good one, for patients and for health-care budgets. But the research on this subject has concluded that about half of patients get too much treatment and about half get too little.
The notion that a technology like Watson, if unbiased, is going to reduce health care spending significantly seems misguided. But such technologies can make a useful difference if the right economic incentives are in place. And that, of course, is what the drift toward “accountable care organizations” is about. That is, a system in which doctors, hospitals and insurers are paid for helping people live healthier lives.
If that happens, the nation’s health care bill won’t necessarily fall. People living healthier and presumably longer lives will be consuming health care services for more years. But at least the money would be spent more wisely.
