IHE Domain Coordination Committee 2009-04-14 Teleconference Minutes

Attendees

1. Roll Call see Roster

2. Approval of Minutes

2. Eye Care Profiles selected for development

Legacy Acquisition Modality Actor to be added to Eye Care Workflow
Additional Order Information: Optional extension to provide full procedure instructions (compare with Mammo Rad Tech Communication profile)
Under Consideration: Department Scheduling Actor: EMR (Order Placer/Filler) to display schedule from practice management system; update scheduling in practice management system

Eye Care may develop the scheduling proposal as a white paper
Other domains (eg, Radiology) have similar needs; profile proposal for [Appointment Workflow] in 2007
Domains needing scheduling functionality may present a request to IT Infrastructure to add this to their profile development work
A process needs to be developed to enable other domains to present their needs to ITI and collaborate on development of profiles

1. R2/RO Discussion

1. Supplement Packaging for TI and PC

Urgent because we should get this resolved before we get too far in this cycle
Most domains publish one supplement document for each profile containing both Volume 1 and Volume 2 material
Eyecare and RadOnc are publishing an updated TF Volume 1 document and an updated TF Volume 2
This may be confusing for readers (which is the Real TF) and inconvenient for reviewers (have to handle two documents for each supplement being reviewed or trial implemented)
Is there a good reason to use this format?
