Domain Coordination Issues
Documentation, Websites and Public Information
1. IHE Support for Meaningful Use Objectives/Requirements
- Joyce Sensmeier and Chris Carr led a discussion about questions that have arisen about how IHE supports requirements for Meaningful Use under HITECH act in the US
- One purpose is to clarify and track information: use as guidance for future profile development
- Outreach to certifying bodies about IHE's
- Other organizations might wish to be involved NEMA-MITA (Rich Eaton)
- Reviewers: John Rhoads, Keith Dreyer
- Similar matrices could be developed for other national projects
2. HL7 Project Coordination Update
- Liora Alschuler presented a proposed process for collaboration on the Health Story Project to develop narrative reports in HL7 CDA format
- Health Story is a group of professionals that have an agreement with HL7 to develop consolidated implementation guides
- Consolidation project, whose goal is to develop the simplest entry-level approach possible: compatible with CCD templates and IHE profiles
- On the way toward approval as a formal HL7 project
- Would address only IHE profiles that overlap with existing HL7 Implementation Guides (though it could address others in future)
- Goal is to identify and address discrepancies and ambiguities in existing templates
- Will create a single point of reference where there are now multiple, overlapping and sometimes conflicting references (eg, HITSP constructs, IHE profiles, and CDA implementation guides)
- Frame of reference will be US healthcare; international guides may adhere to and adapt templates
- Aiming for full draft in April with ballot in May
- How to get involved:
- Health Story seeking active participation and input from IHE representatives
- Weekly meetings to start in January
- Working on developing common header and body sections
- Would like to establish official points of contact (Keith Boone has functioned in this role thus far)
- Members invited to join ballot pool; Liora would like to host webinar on the HL7 ballot process (for members and non-members)
- Project to be presented to IHE PCC (Feb. 7-10) and DICOM WG-08 (Radiology Structured Reports) (Jan. 10)
