• Reinvigorating development committee volunteer activity - continue discussion- Karen W

• IHE Board is requesting advice on above topic
• General concern is that committees are becoming fragmented where small groups, or individuals, develop profiles and there is little cross-review amongst the different profile development mini-groups. Result is lower quality profiles. Is there anything the DCC or Board can do to help the situation?

• Please see the meeting minutes from the January 17th DCC call for proposals and discussions:
  • IHE Domain Coordination Committee Teleconference Minutes 2012-01-17 January 17, 2012 Minutes
    • Discussed implementing rules around document review within committee
    • Require that every supplement published have two designated reviewers, who need to submit comments
    • Reviewers would be listed on title page along with authors
    • Cross-domain review has not proven practical in previous efforts
    • Require named reviewers on Trial Implemenation drafts of documents; build that as a requirement in the supplement template; make submission of reviewer names part of data about the document published elsewhere (not in the document itself, perhaps in Mary Jungers' publication database)
    • Record in minutes when a given profile has been discussed in committee
    • Volume 1 needs to be heavily reviewed in committee; implementers needed to review Volume 2
    • Action Item: Kevin O'Donnell will implement reviewer policy in Radiology
