Glossy document on Web Services in IHE (Vassil Peytchev)

We were planning to develop a white paper in 2008 on a Web Services Roadmap for IHE. At the October ITI Planning Committee, it has been proposed to transform this effort in a brief 2 pages document that summarizes at a high-level:

• The role of webservices in healthcare interoperability, a key component by only a part of the solution
• the current use of Web Services across IHE profiles (Final and Trial Implementation),
• the general approach followed by IHE with new profiles in term of use of Web Services.

- agreement by the committee (and Vassil) on this approach. - schedule a call to discuss week of Jan 7/08 3:30-5:00pm Central to review/feedback on the white paper, Gail to send out invitation.

Reuse of Health Data White Paper (Charles Parisot)

This white paper was also to be developped by the ITI Planning Committee in 2008. A draft was developped in the spring. It has been used by the new IHE Quality domain, but has never been finalized to reach a point of public comment. Committee members are asked to review the attched draft and offer recommendations as next steps.
