Domain Coordination Issues

1. Domain Timeline Coordination

  • Action Item: Secretariat to send reminder to outstanding domains to enter their milestone dates
  • Action Item: Add column to table for estimated number of supplements

2. Committee Quorums

  • Discussion prior to potentially bumping to IHE Board
  • Confirm secretariat responsibility for monitoring/recording quorum
  • Is it an issue if a committee consistently fails to reach quorum
  • Is there a mimimum acceptable quorum for a committee? 1? 2? 3? 4?
  • Action Item: Set floor of five voting members for committee to be active (quorum minimum is 3)
  • Action Item: (Committee Secretaries) Establish procedure for when committees fall below minimum
  • Action Item: Committee Secretary Update Meeting

3. R2 optionality definition document review

  • ITI, PCC, Rad and Lab definitions of R2 are all similar to HL7 RE (required, empty)
* ITI, Rad: R2=Required if know, must be able to capture and transmit
* PCC: R2=Required if known, not required to capture (system-by-system differences)
* Lab: RE=R2, similar to interpretation used by ITI, Rad; harmonize on single designation?
* PCC will align its definition of R2 with usage by ITI, Rad
* PCC will develop separate optionality designation (R3?): if you capture, you must send, but you are not required to capture
* R2 derived from DICOM Type 2, but coinage of IHE; continue to use for DICOM designation
* RE to be used for 2.x HL7 message profiling
* General principle: document requirements in syntax of underlying standard
* Action Item: Keith Boone to draft definition of RE as possible replacement for R2; based on Lab definition of RE?
* Action Item: Lab, Rad, PCD, ITI and PCC Tech Cmtes to review definition and agree on how and when to use

Documentation, Websites and Public Information

1. Implementation support material

  • How to make it easily available for developers
  • Specialized part of the wiki ordered by domain and profile? (e.g. the Implementation section of the Wiki)
  • Suggestion from ITI Tech to facilitate access to support material for developers (WSDLs, schemas, examples). Example at ftp:/ftp.ihe.net/TF_Support_Material
  • Review updated implementation templates and domain implementation guide links under Implementation Guidance

2. Review domain tool kits links.

2) IHE Membership Requirements

  • Review of requirements
  • Schedule update of rosters
