  3. Ballot approvals: out of cycle normative ballot approval requested for 5 documents in IDMP (JIC project) at TSC Tracker # 1755, Project Insight ID# 501.
    • Ballot pool open is late due to conflicts with holiday schedules. Opening Feb 18th. Material previously balloted for comment. Motion: Ken moves and Ravi seconds to approve this ballot opening. Vote: Unanimously approved.
  4. Discussion on Project Health metrics - see Project Health Metrics suggestion tracker, and latest Project Report
    Ed joins the call
    • New tracker set up in TSC project in GForge. Dave reviewed the entries in the tracker to date. Discussion on metrics reporting numbers versus percentages. Dave and Lynn will look at a test of the use of this information towards next week’s request for project approval by CIC. Ravi asks how we can measure based on information in Project Insight if that information has not been kept up to date. Dave reported that the Steering Division Project Facilitators are requesting this information from the Work Groups to update Project Insight. Ravi notes we need some controls that each milestone achieved should be updated in the Project Insight tracker. Austin feels that by exposing project health it will incent these project teams to do some of that work. Projects that have not been updated recently will show the work group’s projects in poor health and when they request new projects this will come to light and encourage them to provide updates. Dave seeks additional suggestions from the TSC members. Send them to the TSC list and Lynn and Dave will receive them.

  15. Discussion Topics:
    • (15 mins) Discussion of ONC S&I Framework – Austin
      • Kicking off this week. They’ve identified initiatives all involving HL7 standards, and hoping the SDOs will participate. Meetings begin today. CDA consolidation project kicked off in January. Austin was asked to find out from the Steering Divisions to identify WG needing to be involved with these efforts. Three initiatives: transition care (CCD/CCR refinements), Lab interfaces (orders and observations), and consolidation project. So, the Work Groups are Structured Documents and OO. Need cochairs from those WG willing to act as HL7 representatives in those groups on those initiatives. Need to be mindful of conflict of interest if they also represent another employer’s requirements, but to be an ‘official’ HL7 liaison. Ken notes he is participating on the lab directive but representing ACLA not Quest Diagnostics. OO has volunteered Rob Hausam. Question is for the two others: there are HL7 people involved, but we don’t know if they’re technically representing HL7. We need to specifically identify some WG Co-Chairs to help. Ravi asks why HL7 International is looking for co-chairs for US realm representation. Austin says since we don’t have a U.S. Affiliate we have to get WG co-chairs. Ravi asks what is the implication to HL7 International if it takes on the US realm representation? Need representation to protect HL7 IP. ONC appears to be claiming the background IP which needs to be prohibited, but Ron clarifies that products developed as a result of the initiative using the background IP can become public. Austin notes three conditions for SDOs to participate – sign over the IP, limited license permitting distribution, and then development of some alternate licensing arrangement. Not asking the representative to deal with that – Chuck is dealing with it as CEO. Someone wearing an official HL7 hat needed to speak when the group wants to know what HL7 “thinks” of something. Would like the SD to nominate someone for that. Ken asks if they should be co-chair somewhere in HL7 or cochair of that WG. Prefer cochair of the WG Austin notes but if the candidate is well-qualified we’d be ok. Austin further notes that the cutoff for this identification of the representative is Friday Feb 4th. Ken volunteers for Lab, but Austin notes Rob was named though he may not have signed up yet. Ravi is concerned about someone already a significant contributor to HL7 to take on the extra work. Please send Austin your suggestions.
    • Discussion of SAIF IG Program statement – Austin notes the draft was sent to the list. Would like to get the listserv set up this week. SAIF_arch_pgm is the proposed name. It will be an open list under the TSC. Ken or Lynn will reach out to Mike to get that set up.
  16. Adjourned 11:59 am EST
