Domain Coordination Issues
- Review the current listing of IHE Profiles implemented and in use in major US initiatives
- Spreadsheet of IHE Profiles Supporting Major Initiatives
- IHE Europe effort to gather case studies
- Planning a conference around 2016 Connectathon in Germany (April)
- Announced a plan to gather more case studies; investigating resources to develop into a narrative
- Domain leaders are welcome to send a message regarding any cases they may have to incorporate into the spreadsheet
- Jose: Are the case studies actually using the profiles or using them as a reference?
- Using profiles as basis for publication is what we're looking for
- Multi-domain content creator/consumer harmonization effort
- Initiated by PCC (Tone Southerland main point of contact for this project)
- ACTION: Chris to send PCC co-chairs a message to inquire about any updates regarding this project
- Originally not much interest for IHE
- Currently, there have been discussion about developing a MOU to identify a set of SNOMED codes that IHE could use free of licensing restriction
- Biggest gaps lie within PCC profiles
- Now would be the time for domains to include SNOMED codes into profiles and provide IHTSDO with an extensive list
- ACTION: Chris to reach out to PCC
- Aside from DAF (data access framework), are there any IHE USA-specific extensions?
- ITI has DS4-A as well as appendix to Family Planning profile in QRPH, may not be published in Vol. 4
- RAD - do not have IHE USA-specific extensions
Documentation, Websites and Public Information
- Process for updating Profiles wiki page (Discuss during next call and propose a motion to enforce a process)
- The goal of this page to have a quick reference of what the profile is about rather than opening up the final text doc
- Could re-purpose content of Webinar slides to use as content for this page as a suggestion
- Potentially update page in 6 months - want people to notice profiles during trial implementation phase
- Mary to develop more reasonable list of what profiles need to be updated
- Important to catch up on backlog
