Minutes

• Updating the OID Registry

Chris Melo uploaded a new list of OIDs for our use to the FTP site, as well as posting it to the OID Registry.

• SNOMED Code Inventory

The question, was raised of the list of 750+ codes that have been collected, were there was a list of profiles that the codes were pulled from? The answer is no. Chris Carr requested only a rough total list, and not a more detailed inventory of which codes were used in which profile. We may need to do this work to specify which codes to eliminate duplicates. There may be a per code price license, as well as a new process to adopt new terms into the taxonomy. For vendors and clinicians they may need to license codes to use them in reports. Chris has started a spread sheet that lists the SNOMED codes in the Value Sets, which will make the codes more traceable.

• Technical Project Manager (TPM) for CARD

Chris, Paul, Steve Moore, and Lynn Felhofer discussed the scope of having a TPM to help our domain prepare for Connectathon. There will be some further funding discussions with the ACC. There are two candidates, Gila Pike, and Harry Solomon to fill the role.
