Referral Matching

Presenter: George Cole

• 4 Basic Issues (Assumption that we are using XD*):
  • 1. Referring system doing the referral knows how to format and where to include a "ReferralId"
  • 2. Works for single or multiple submission sets
  • 3. Receiving system has to know how to handle, turn around the referral
    • using structured or unstructured document, etc
  • 4. Referring system needs to know whether or not it will receive a response, and which response it is receiving
• Use XDS Folders, metadata content
• Use certain pieces of CDAR2 and/or CCDA
• Q: Isn't this XDW?
  • Could be beneficially used in XDW, but this is not about tracking tasks across enterprise, but instead narrowly focusing down on a referral use case
• Look at Perinatal Workflow and ensure alignment
• Keith:
  • Agree that material is there, and this will be helpful to explain how to use it.
  • Will be challenges when dealing with unstructured documents
    • George: use XD* metadata to help deal with this
    • Keith: There is no searching capability within XDS metadata
    • Should schedule joint time with ITI during Dec meeting
• John D:
  • Is this a Transition of Care XDW component?
    • It could become that, a component of XDW
  • Is selection of the referral target out of scope, or pre-condition?
    • yes, either approach. not trying to profile this.
• Wendy S:
  • Are we restricting the idea to only using XDS?
    • Will use XDS, XDM, XDR - XD*
  • Can this be used outside of XD*?
    • the piece of this that profiles CDA content could be used outside of XD*
• Keith:
  • Is unstructured document going to be used to request a referral?
    • we could say unstructured document is off the table...otherwise will be challenges tracking
