IHE World Summit 2020
- Status update (Jürgen)
- 3 options at the moment:
- Hold F2F (provided that IHE EU Connectathon takes place F2F)
- Very insecure at the moment, travel restrictions present and probably getting worse
- Turn into virtual
- We are missing the "social" factor
- Postpone to next IHE EU Connectathon in June 2021, Czech Republic
- Simply move "as it is" into next year, after COVID has hopefully relaxed
- Opinions:
- Stephane: Postpone, pessimistic that Connectathon takes place F2F, virtual: a lot of effort, but no social part
- Peter: There are possibilities to have events virtually with some kind of socializing factor. Needs appropriate tools, e.g. Hopin Platform, includes social networking features
- Would require to restructure the program, separate it in smaller chunks
- Sungkee: Postpone, virtual is not productive, social networking is the most important factor at the World Summit
- Tie: Combination F2F plus possibility for virtual dialin (speakers and audience)
- Jürgen: Postpone, wait for HIMSS and RSNA virtual events feedback and learnings, apply those on Virtual World Summit, if F2F in Czech is still not possible
Joint IHE/HL7 AsiaPac summit, Singapore
- Status
- HIMSS Apac is going virtual -> no F2F possible
- No program planning was done
- Consequence: Joint IHE/HL7 is canceled for now, do another attempt next year
Engagement of Deployment Committees
- Discussion
- Sharpening the role and purpose of Deployment Committees
- Last discussion: 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
- Next steps
- Schedule that work-item for later to not overload the group, the other work-items are more important
- Activity measurements (affects fees, reporting, ...)?
- Last discussion: IHE Europe is working on a concept for this -> Status?
- Status: Statutes and Internal rules for a "active/passive" concept of Deployment Committees almost final
- After finalization of IHE Europe per-work, results brought to this group as base for staring the work-item
- How can we support national Deployment Committees?
- Last discussion: "good experiences" is an important way to support, develop a guideline of success factors
- Input of IHE UK: 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
- IHE Europe is currently investigating that on the example of IHE UK
- Next steps
- After finalization of IHE Europe per-work, results brought to this group as base for staring the work-item
- Interesting presentations could be included in the agenda on a regular basis
- Last discussion: "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
- Next steps
- Motion: This concept will be executed
- Process: Call for presentations to DCs -> make long-term presentation schedule -> do proper advertising and invite (also board)
- Decision: The present group approves the motion
- Action item: Confirmation of work-item approval with rest of the group by email (Jürgen, Jamie)
