        3. Tabled Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement - Semantic Health Information Performance and Privacy Standard (SHIPPS) for CBCC of DESD, at TSC Tracker # 1787, Project Insight # 724. (2011May draft for comment ballot deliverable); waiting on updated project scope statement but they work group has justification of universal realm. Returned to table.
          • Ron and Patrick join.
        4. Tabled Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement - Guidance for the use of Terminology Post-Coordinated Expressions in HL7 for Vocab of FTSD, at TSC Tracker # 1789, Project Insight # 743. (2012 Jan ballot deliverable)
          • Project is indeed intended to cross all paradigms, it is an extension beyond Terminfo.
          • Ken asks why this is an HL7 project? It’s for post coordinated terminology in HL7, as an implementation guide.
          • Vote: approved 5/0/1 (T3SD abstain).
      • New Projects
        2011May ballot
        1. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for Arden Syntax v2.8, for Arden Syntax WG of SSD SD, at TSC Tracker # 1804, Project Insight #733. (2011May normative ballot deliverable). Woody asks if they ballot within V3 – they haven’t balloted within V3 for a while. Gregg sees it as a separate publishing thread. Austin notes that they are also requesting a project for balloting V2.9 – they feel they will be able to ballot normative in one ballot cycle? They would like to work on the next release during the current ballot cycle.
          • Vote: unanimously approved.
        2. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for Patient Administration of SSD SD- Patient Encounter Messaging at TSC Tracker # 1808, Project Insight # 736. (2011May DSTU ballot deliverable) Going from 9 topics to one, 33 message types to 11. Looking to streamline the standard with restructuring the content. Closing the existing project ID and opening this one. The project is marked as universal – DSTU implementers are Norway and Denmark, Rene is domain expert. Ron reiterates Canadian interest.
          • Vote: unanimously approved.
        3. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for PHER of DESD- HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide: Electronic Laboratory Reporting to Public Health, Release 2 (US Realm) at TSC Tracker # 1811, Project Insight # 737. (2011May DSTU ballot deliverable). Austin states that R1 was Informative and this project is intending to ballot R2 as DSTU and pending information back from GOC on what should be permitted this should be tabled.
        4. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for PHER of DESD - HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide: Vital Records Death Reporting, Release 1 (US Realm) at TSC Tracker # 1812, Project Insight # 735. (2011May DSTU ballot deliverable). This project is being requested to ballot at DSTU. Patrick notes that we had asked IC to come up with guidelines on IGs as normative or informative but we did not receive that advice. Gregg suggests this is tied up in intellectual property issues with public availability. Ken moves to table, lacking support. Ed moves to amend approval conditional on it being informative. Ken moves to table and Ed seconds. Motion to table approved unanimously.
          • Calvin joins, Charlie leaves.
        5. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for Patient Care of DESD - Pressure Ulcer Prevention Domain Analysis Model at TSC Tracker # 1814, Project Insight # 745. (2011May informative ballot deliverable) Austin notes the participation is just U.S. so what is the evidence for justification of Universal realm. Discussion whether action needed to follow up with WG on clarification of international participation. Discussion ensued on whether informative documents should be subject to such justification requirements; will be added to future conference call. GOM does not indicate that informative is a “standard”, Gregg notes.
          • Vote: unanimously approved.
        Post-May ballot
        1. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for Arden Syntax v2.9, for Arden Syntax WG of SSD SD, at TSC Tracker # 1805, Project Insight #734. (2011Sept normative ballot deliverable). Gregg notes Arden 2.7 passed normative in one cycle in May 2009 ballot. 4.e should have project dependency on 2.8 ballot completion before 2.9 ballots. Woody moves to approve as amended, Ken seconds.
          • Amended motion Vote: unanimously approved.
    • Publications:
      1. Motion: Approve DSTU Publication Request for RCRIM of DESD - HL7 Version 3 Standard: Regulated Studies: CDISC Content to Message – Study Participation, Release 1 at TSC Tracker # 1803, Project Insight # 205.
        • Vote: unanimously approved
      2. Motion: Approve DSTU Publication Request for RCRIM of DESD- HL7 Version 3 Standard: Regulated Studies: CDISC Content to Message – Study Design, Release 1 at TSC Tracker # 1803, Project Insight # 205.
        • Vote: unanimously approved

        • Vote: unanimously approved
      • Return to Post-May ballot items
        1. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for EHR (of SSD SD)- HL7 EHR FM Records Management and Evidentiary Support Functional Profile Implementation Guidance – Phase 1 – Environmental Scan and Analysis, at TSC Tracker # 1807, Project Insight # 739. (2011Sept draft for comment ballot deliverable), more of an assessment or requirements analysis, like a survey but not a DAM but to produce a white paper informative add-on to the RM ES FP. Woody asks why this is EHR and not Structured Documents? What about messages and services? Calvin has encouraged the EHR group to think about those areas in addition to Documents. Medical Records Domain resides with Structured Documents now so that may be the reason. Ken also notes that they’ve not justified their universal realm with the same participants as the other project.
          • Vote: unanimously approved.
        2. Motion: Approve Project Scope Statement for Orders & Observations of SSD SD- Diet and Nutrition Orders Domain Analysis Model at TSC Tracker # 1809, Project Insight # 738. (2011Sept informative ballot deliverable)
          • Vote: unanimously approved.
