Engagement of Deployment Committees

• Work item: Interesting presentations could be included in the agenda on a regular basis

• Purpose: "US/Asia/Europe slots" for such presentations of "interesting topic of the country" (maybe 3/6 times a year)

• Expected result: more participation in GDC calls

• Process: Call for presentations to DCs -> make long-term presentation schedule -> do proper advertising and invite (also board)
• Status work item: Active
• Process:

• Step 1: Prominent announcement of the presentation slot (mentioning the GDC call) to GDC and Board
• Step 2: Presentations given once (in just one GCD call)
• Step 3: Presentation will be cut out of the general recording and advertised for offline viewing in dedicated emails to the GDC and Board
• Step 4: Replay presentation in the complementary slot (where the presenting region is not attending)
• Step 5: Enlist presentation in a "libarary of presentations" on GDC Wiki

• Presentation slots to be scheduled:

• Already approved

• European X-eHealth, Februar slot (Jürgen)
• Australia: National approach to Health IT Standards selection, March slot (Vince)

• New presentations

• tbd

• Work item: Activity measurements

• Purpose: Find activity measurements (fees, reporting, ...) for distinguishing active from passive Deployment Committees and find a concept for Deployment Committees not paying their membership fees
• Status work item: On hold - waiting for IHE Europe input, results brought to this group as base for staring the work-item
• Status Action Items

• Report IHE Europe status and outcomes (Jürgen)

• Work item: How can we support national Deployment Committees?

• "Good experiences" is an important way to support, develop a guideline of success factors, any help regarding getting membership

• e.g., by setting up work-items/activities/etc. on International level, which are "so interesting" for countries, to that they can use it to advertise local membership

• Status work item: On hold - waiting for IHE Europe input, results brought to this group as base for staring the work-item::* Pending confirmation
• Status Action Items

• Report IHE Europe status and outcomes (Jürgen)

• Work item: Sharpening the role and purpose of Deployment Committees

• Purpose: Upgrade the governance document, not sure, if hard constraints can be applied, but at least some more guidance, what we expect from a Deployment Committee
• Status work item: Not started yet due to bandwidth - pending other work-items to finish first

Next meeting

• Wednesday, March 3rd, 02:00-03:00am CT (EU / Asia friendly time)
