Action Items (Details in meeting notes)

Item Example from last year

from Jan. 21

• Open Date: Monitor PCD Connectathon registrations periodically.
• Jan. 28: (All) Consider a more effective way to communicate the IHE/PCD message, with fewer presentations.

• Determine which systems provide comparable information within the storyline, even if they are unique in other ways.

• Jan. 28: (Manny) Define data for preload, registration feed for visitors. Consider eliminating printers.
• Jan. 28: (Manny) Address GE's concerns about staffing their Enterprise system.
• Jan. 28: (Manny) Update on ADT/patient-visitor id and association with systems.
• Update on ADT/patient-visitor id and association with systems. Focused meeting, include diagram and other information to be provided.

• John Donnelly will address this as part of the Showcase focused portion of this meeding.
• Check with Bill Klaver, John Donnelly, and Steve Moore. A04 will work this year

• Verify that we will have an A04 message this year. Request preloaded data (medication order, demographics).
• Provide material for the Scenario (outline or brief description) to be followed by Manny compiling a single view.

• Identify overarching message (e.g., patient safety. Note that Ray presented the stakeholder survey which showed
• Survey Slide #17, "Improved Patient Care and Safety" was by far the greatest "incentives for IHE integration"; #2 was "Long term cost reduction"; #3 was improved workflow
• Workshop discussion suggested we focus on these, with 5 rights, remote alarm communication among the specifics

• Zebra has agreed to provide printers. We need to decide between two suggested models; determine if Epic can use the same Postscript printer Ruth provides; assure access to the registration kiosk.
• Updates on how RTM will be tested in Pre-Connectathon, Virtual Connectathon, and Connectathon.

• (Pump Vendors, Enterprise Systems) Vendors will provide their own approach to bar coding for drugs, infusions, patients and caregivers.

• Created Wiki page for "virtual connectathon" on Connectathon '09 page. Will eventually include, partners, issues list / resolution, status, etc.
• Identify the devices to be connected to middleware, the coding of parameters, identifying partners for testing and demonstration.
• Coordinate ADT testing (Virtual and Connectathon) with Bill Klaver, coordinate with Steve Moore, John Donnelly, seek a backup system.
• Update name for alarm product
• Confirm structure diagrams and utilities
• Define contents of fourth wall
• Set PCD Docent training WebEx / on site (and run through at Connectathon)
• Webex run through of draft Scenario
• Update block diagram with locations of SIS, Cerner, Capsule
• Steve Moore needs MAC addresses
• Virtual Connectathon (tentative deadline for completion; partners may test anytime before this)
• Determine if Cerner can support the AR actor in the Showcase.
• Change proposal to PIB for ADT in PIB option.
