2. The Problem

Several IHE profiles rely on HL7 specifications, in particular HL7 CDA R2. Implementers of these profiles are facing many stumbling blocks due to inconsistencies among the HL7 CDA based IHE profiles and the artifacts published by HL7 that implementers are relying on for their respective implementations. These implementations issues are significant enough to threaten the interoperability goals of IHE and should be addressed across the relevant committees … and in particular, for this proposal, ITI and PCC.


3. Key Use Case

4. Standards & Systems

  • HL7 CDA R2
  • HL7 CCD
  • IHE PCC TF

5. Discussion

This is an issue that I have begun to press among the co-chairs of IHE. I'm advocating that the co-chairs, for next, year undertake an alignment campaign in which all content profiles in IHE that are based on CDA use the PCC TF. This will provide greater implementation and documentation consistency. In particular, for ITI, the XDS-SD profile should be aligned with the PCC TF and should use the content module approach where appropriate.
