10:00-12:00: Encounter-based Imaging Workflow (7)
    • Technical action items documented in profile draft
    • Action: Re-activate weekly EBIW calls. Kinson, Kevin and Nichole will work off line regarding schedule
    • Action: Reach out to other domains to make sure no overlap regarding EBIW.
      • David C - PaLM and Pathology
      • Antje - CARD
      • Kevin - Endoscopy
      • Wim - Eyecare (Don VanSyckle) and PCD John Rhoads
      • Kinson - PCD (Monroe Patillo)


Kick-off Status Evaluations:

Profile Name: EBIW

  • Describe gaps in Use Case coverage
    • Don't need to talk about other portable modalities - portable x-ray (don't disrupt current practices, maybe don't discuss?), endoscopy, ophthalmology
    • Can compare to the (order-based) workflow profiles for endo and eyecare
  • Describe unresolved technical issues/tasks
    • Transaction details
      • Detailed mapping to worklist
      • Detailed notification transaction.
    • (EMR->EnctMgr->Modality->IM/IA->EMR)
    • Do we need to define a query for these images? - relook at the query transactions
    • And look at PACS rejecting for lack of accession - cover that case.
  • Describe potential practical issues
    • Doctors don't want to do ANYTHING with a GUI other than see the patient
    • Too many clicks
    • Pre-post nonunity of studies
    • Will too much of this be mandatory (high implementation load)
    • Maybe not meeting query requirements with our attributes
  • Does the open issue list feel complete
    • Not yet. Its all in the discussion sections but needs to migrate
    • Some unknown unknowns.
  • Which open issues feel most risky
    • Rob: Security
    • Dan: Device and people mobility issues and associated complexity
    • Andrei: Encounter identification concept - how it fits into MWL
  • How is the work fitting in the allocated bandwidth? (Time to spare? Just right? Things were left undone?)
    • About right.
  • How does the scope feel? (Room to expand? Just right? Pretty ambitious?)
    • Doing well on constraining scope.
  • If you had to reduce scope, what would you drop?
    • EMR Notification (but its still really useful so don't drop it)
  • Have the promised resources manifested?
    • Partly/mostly
    • EMR vendors is a gap
  • What tasks would benefit from additional expertise?
    • Review of notification mechanisms by EMR
    • Overall review of profiles by sites that have done this already.
    • Review of metadata
  • What vendors are engaged for each actor?
    • EMR is light, Encounter Mgr is new, Modality is OK (poke), PACS is OK (poke),
  • How many tcons would you like between now and the PC Prep Meeting?
    • 1 or 2 maybe for TC (already scheduled)
    • Re-engage the EBIW subgroup for a few weekly calls.


    • Profile Name: IDEP
    • Describe gaps in Use Case coverage
    • Describe unresolved technical issues/tasks
    • Describe potential practical issues
    • Does the open issue list feel complete
    • Which open issues feel most risky
    • How is the work fitting in the allocated bandwidth? (Time to spare? Just right? Things were left undone?)
    • How does the scope feel? (Room to expand? Just right? Pretty ambitious?)
    • If you had to reduce scope, what would you drop?
    • Have the promised resources manifested?
    • What tasks would benefit from additional expertise?
    • What vendors are engaged for each actor?
    • How many tcons would you like between now and the PC Prep Meeting?


It will be the responsibility of the Profile Editor to lead resolution of these issues before the Public Comment preparation meeting.

Resolution may involve:

  • Scheduling additional Tcons to complete the technical discussion
  • Reducing the scope of the profile to fit within the allocated % bandwidth
  • Including open issues in the PC Profile draft for wider comment (generally for issues that would not radically change the profile)
  • Changing the workitem from a profile to a whitepaper to explore the solution space if it is not ready for profiling.
    • Hopefully the whitepaper work is solid enough that it will be ready to profile next year and the same proposal will be selected again
  • Dismissing the workitem as not ready for profiling in the forseeable future.
    • This likely means there was something the TC should have caught during evaluation
12:00-13:00: Lunch
