Governance

  1. Discussion topics:
    • Update on Board motion for Machine Processable Artifacts
      • Product line focus/approach on machine processable artifacts approved by the Board. TSC to work with Marketing committee to clarify. BAM will need to indicate the point at which the Marketing committee gets engaged with the definition of the product line.
    • Update on HL7 Terminology Authority Board Proposal
      • Jim Case was unable to join the call and questions raised caused its approval to be deferred to Atlanta. Many questions revolved around how its authority would coordinate with a US Realm terminology authority.
    • Feedback on IP release last week - Board emergency meeting on Friday determined DSTU will also be available to non-members after a delay.

Management

  1. Review action items – please review the
    • #2400 Consolidation of approaches for submitting enhancement requests - (last update: revisit after illumination from the board on the plans for a help desk)
    • organize SAIF AP vitality assessment pre-kickoff call (Ron) completed.
    • Austin, Charlie and Calvin will work offline to draft the precise measurement of a new metric around WGH regarding cochairs; subsumed into the mid level governance health metrics.
    • Jean will establish and schedule the ANSI/GOM Review Task force, with Freida, Pat and Calvin - he'll be putting out a Doodle poll. Freida sent out something for GOM review out for peer review since March 22.
    • Charlie will review FP definition using terms such as the ArB recommendation for a DAM. With Charlie's withdrawal, this goes to general ArB assignment.
    • Austin and Woody will draft language for a recommendation on consideration of HTTP compliance to US conformance criteria on EHRs for character set display.
