• Extend glossary with PML terms

• ftp://ftp.ihe.net/Pharmacy/yr5_2013-2014/Technical_Committee/Profiles/MedicationList/CP-PHARM-061.doc

• Discussion

• Michael Tan asks why not a message based approach has been chosen for Medication list

• Netherlands, Canada, UK are message-based

• Jürgen Brandstätter answers that this concept fits into the overal document based approach of CMPD and its content profiles (PRE, DIS, PADV)

• Transactions and the on-demand document concept fit into IHE landscape perfectly

• Solution

• The already targeted second approach for CMPD (message-based, named CMPD.b) should be used for a consistent way to resolve that issue
• Problem: Lack of manpower in the group to work on CMPD.b
• Problem does span over to PCC too, shall be discussed with PCC at joint meeting in Vienna 2014

• Decision for whole package

• Put the whole package to Public Comment
• Proactively try to get comments on that by peer to peer announcement
• Wait for response to decide further proceeding
