4	HITSP Remote Monitoring Public Comment Period - Todd	Status/Discussion: PCD to develop comments. Try for dates in the next two weeks, Monday and Tuesday, call Elliot, Paul; if Elliot can’t join ask him to forward existing emails. Decisions/Issues: Action(s): Manny to survey for convenient time.
5	Rosetta Terminology Mapping - Chair	Status/Discussion: Paul expressed concern during yesterday’s PC meeting about the IEEE MOU holding up the RTM, and even more his concern about continued support to maintain the RTM going forward. With Continua and other efforts underway, the benefits of the RTM could be lost. John Garguilo indicated he would explore the possibility that NIST may be able to provide initial support. Todd indicated that the IHE/IEEE and IHE/Continua MOUs are indeed critical. Definitions have been omitted in an attempt to avoid IEEE intellectual property issues, but that doesn’t address the issue of turning this effort into a standard and obtaining continued support for someone to set up the database and maintain it and for a group of technical and clinical experts to validate new terms. Decisions/Issues: Action(s): Ray to ping Didi, Chris on the HL7 back to IEEE as a counter proposal. To include RTM and other items as justification for action.
