Minutes

Minutes/Conclusions Reached:

  1. Introduction of visitors (including declaration of interests) Brian Pech and Rob Hausam are on the line
  2. Agenda review and approval – John
    • Lynn asks to have the post-wgm survey filled out for the TSC – Woody will do so.
  3. Approve Minutes of 2011-05-02_TSC_Call_Agenda, move Ken second Woody unanimously approved
  4. Review action items –
    • action items from WGM:
      • Calvin to check with the Cochairs of Structured Documents on naming for what title they want to use when they go beyond DSTU for an Implementation Guide. Calvin’s not here
      • Austin and Patrick will check on the 2.x side on an implementation profile term. Austin/Patrick are not here
      • Patrick will look for his mapping of NCPDP to the RIM and let us know. Patrick is not here.
      • Woody will draft something for the Board on RIM current version (V3) should be offered as the updated ISO standard.
        Woody reports this was discussed in Finland at the ISO meeting – this item can be closed but more work is needed and follow up with John this week on a new action item related to ISO. Lynn will try to coordinate with Woody.
  5. Approval items:
    • Project approval request for Vocab of FTSD: Develop and publish best practices for vocabulary within Conformance profiles at Project Insight # 496, TSC Tracker # 1903. Project intent modified to reflect not intending to create a balloted informative document but an internal white paper. John asks how this is getting into ISO. Rob notes that they are providing input into ISO; Beverly is coordinating with ISO. John asks if it is a JIC project within ISO, is there HL7 effort going on or just input to ISO. Rob confirms it is input to ISO to provide alignment and identify if artifacts are needed. Synchronized balloting of artifacts would be identified and pursued in a separate project. Rob will let John know if there is a synchronized ballot need.
      • Vote: Ken moves and Woody seconds approval. Unanimously approved.
    • Project approval request for Vocab of FTSD: Develop and publish Principles & guidelines of Terminology Maintenance at Project Insight # 499, TSC Tracker # 1902. Woody notes this was intended to be a guidance to implementers.
      • Vote: Woody moves and Ken/Ravi second approval. Unanimously approved.
      • Rob is thanked, and leaves the call.
    • Informative Document Publication Request for O&O of SSD SD: HL7 Version 2 Implementation Guide: Laboratory Test Compendium Framework, Release 1, at Project Insight # 635, TSC Tracker # 1940. Ken adds this is an IG based on Chapter 8 of V2.6. Two balloters not withdrawing negatives wished to have the IG reflect V2.7. OO WG did not wish to hold up publication based solely on that issue. Ed asks how the votes were marked. Ken notes they were marked for future use. Woody asks if we shouldn’t indicate the V2 release against which this implementation guide is written? Ken agrees. It’s in the first page of the IG though it indicates it early-adopts some additional fields that will appear in V2.8. Ken agrees that future ballot names should indicate the V2 release. Woody notes that the ballot designator is also indicative of V3 and we should let Don know if that was incorrectly registered.
      • Vote: Ken moves and Gregg seconds approval. Unanimously approved.
    • Request to withdraw two proposed ANS for Financial Management:
      • HL7 Version 3 Standard: Medicaid Information Technology Architecture (MITA) Style Guide, Release 1 (September 2008 Ballot Cycle, Draft Standard for Trial Use 1: Request; and
      • HL7 Version 3 Standard: Medicaid Information Technology Architecture (MITA) Development Framework, Release 1 (US Realm), from January 2009 Ballot cycle, DSTU2, Request.
      • See Project Insight # 332, TSC Tracker # 1941
      • Vote: Woody moves and Gregg seconds approval for each. Unanimously approved.
    • Request the TSC ratify changes to ArB membership - ArB unanimously voted on 2011-05-19 to make two changes in the ArB membership:
      1. Remove AMS because of inability to participate; and
      2. Add Zoran Milosevic
      • John asks how AMS will be informed. Ron notes they will probably arrange a call to discuss. John offers to send him an email. They continue to welcome his participation as he is available.
      • Vote: Ron moves and Ken seconds. Unanimously approved.
  6. outstanding business from WGM:
    • (May) Review, update, and develop new entries for TSC Three-Year Plan
      • John suggests we defer until Austin is back.
    • TSC Work Group Visibility Maintenance (See Product Visibility Project ID# 631)
      • Ken recounts our methods in the Work Group Health, the newsletter and so on. We can leave it as a 3-year plan item. John is not convinced that we actually have a three-year vision (wink)
    • Project Health/PBS Health Metrics (Projects, Ballots and Standards) (See Project ID# 765)
      • It has been favorably received. Gregg notes that seeing the projects on the ‘naughty’ list has been very helpful to know what to address. Ron notes that the Work Groups should gain awareness of their projects’ status before you hit the public meeting.
    • (May) Review TSC Communications Plan - how are we doing against it?
      • The communications strategy project had a conversation in Orlando. He thinks they’re going to drop the communication strategy and stick to the existing TSC communication plans. There’s been no concrete feedback from the Affiliates on requirements for such a strategy. Need to address with Austin.
      • Ken also notes that today’s Product Quality plan meeting might need to be cancelled if there is no one planning to chair today. Gregg confirmed there was no meeting invitation on his calendar.
  7. Discussion topics:
    • Ed asks about TSC Nominations; only a week left for nominations and how are the other SDs doing for candidates? DESD is okay. Gregg put in two nominations for SSD SD. Woody wasn’t sure where FTSD stands. Woody will coordinate with Karen to see how FTSD is going. Lynn will send a summary to John on the status of all TSC nominations this week. Ken notes there is one candidate for T3SD and he is not running again. Affiliate nominations from the International Council will have to be checked for Ravi’s position.
  8. Reports: (attach written reports below from Steering Divisions et al.)
    • DESD reports that an updated mission and charter statement was approved for the PHER WG.

Woody moves to adjourn and Ken seconds – adjourned at 11:56 am EDT.
