Review Vision, Mission, and Strategic goals, outreach opportunities, updates to IHE Board Report

  • Agenda updated for the Day
  • Sponsor updates
    • Meetings in November
      • added a day for FHIR training session (Wednesday November 11 10-4:30). RSVP required. Limited to 30 people. Target towards IHE profile developers to understand how to use it and develop with it.
    • Volume 1 meeting in Lido, Portugal (University of Portugal). February 15-19.
    • Looking for volunteers at HIMSS Showcase. If interested contact Nancy Ramirez
    • Collaboration opportunity with IHE USA
      • Looking for case studies of successful implementation of IHE Profiles. see IHE USA website for details.


  • Review of Mission and Vision and Strategic Goals
    • Current Strategic Goals surround Content, Workflow and Nursing
    • Content
      • There is a project from the S&I EU-US group launching a PSS at HL7 (Structured Docs WG) related to International Patient Summary (Mark Roche is leading the project). Will look to HSI at HL7 to be following it. Keith will be keeping an eye on this one for our team.
      • Content validation is getting a lot more attention in the US. There is a workgroup (Sequioa) that is looking at C-CDA 1. Doing a deep dive into all the content validators (CCDA, FHIR, SMART, ...). Looking at how to close the gap between what is being seen in the field compared to what is tested in the lab. They are not at all the same right now. Due to the complexity of interoperability (terminology, different levels of interop maturity between exchanging sites)


    • Workflow
      • We have and continue to have projects related to workflow so feel we are doing well on this goal.
    • Nursing
      • We seem to be having bandwidth problems with this
      • Perhaps we could keep this as a project throughout the year due to the number of projects
    • Discussion regarding our role with Patient engagement etc.
      • As much discussion as time allowed. Not sure where and what value we can bring to the overall national discussion here. Probably warrants more discussion.
    • Review of Board Report
      • Need to add something in the report about the International Patient Summary.

Barcode Scanning Patient Safety and Efficiency

Presented by Vincent van Pelt.

  • Lots of discussion where this belongs.
    • HL7 UDI project is doing this, MedEpiMed is doing this.
    • It seems to be more PCD or pharmacy related then PCC or ITI. Recommend reaching out to one of these groups ASAP and get into their planning process ASAP. PCD is still meeting this week (their planning meeting was on Tuesday - technical is now meeting)
