Agenda
Welcome
- Participants
- Approval of agenda
- Permission to record this session
National Deployment Committees
- IHE USA Deployment Committee Report
Notes for development of this agenda
- 1) The special presentation for the next GDC call (US/Asia) is set. Derek will send over an abstract asap.
- 2) We had some ideas about (1) extending the special presentation format and (2) introducing something new ("IHE dinner table"), please see in the minutes.
- These 2 points you'd need to discuss in the next call and make a decision on it. In this call everyone was in favour. If approved, we could use the monthly slots alternating for a "special presentation" (for public) or a "Dinner table" - as we have topics.
Special Presentation
- Title: IHE’s role in WHO’s digital health agenda… and WHO’s role in ours
- Speaker: Derek Ritz - IHE Canada
- Abstract: WHO’s department of Digital Health & Innovation (DHI) was established Mar-6, 2019. Unsurprisingly, the early work of this new department has been largely focused on the COVID-19 response. Multiple specifications and reports released by DHI have named IHE’s specifications directly and / or in the context the OpenHIE blueprint that leverages IHE profiles as its foundation. IHE’s conformance-testing capabilities play a foundational role in WHO’s plans for digital health public goods. For IHE’s part, the refreshed IHE Strategic Plan explicitly references WHO as a key tactical collaborator and calls out the important role IHE can and should play in supporting digital health uptake by LMICs. The Oct-5 GDC presentation will highlight ways IHE’s global public goods are being leveraged by WHO and, in turn, the ways WHO’s digital health initiatives are tactically important to IHE’s refreshed Strategic Plan.
- Good “homework” for GDC members would be to watch a few short “explainer” videos that will help provide useful context for the presentation:
