Governance

  1. Discussion topics:
    • S&I Structured Data Capture discussion (Farrah Darbouze, 10 minutes)
      • EHR is meeting with SDC on Thursday Q1 (1st half of quarter). CQI - Wednesday Q2, PHER - Tuesday Q4; SD - Thursday Q1 (second half of quarter)
      • Austin asks what HL7 standards they are working with - an IG typically instructs users on implementation of a standard. Farrah notes they are not constraining HL7 standards for the initial IG. Austin adds that mislabeled content in other S&I ballots has caused problems in the past and needs to be properly categorized. XML schemas and serialization are ITS components, for example. Jean notes they have had similar discussions recently. It may be a new product, while using some CDA or SOA work it is not like other standards HL7 produces and the timelines are very short. Woody feels it is a short timeframe for any standard development. Coherence between the four forms they intend to define is also at issue. Farrah notes that NLM is working with them as well to bridge the gap. Jennifer notes that to focus on the syntax and not the semantics, but to show the structure of the expression for interchange requirements. It is more closely related to a profile but they can name it a base standard if that is more appropriate. Woody notes that IHE profiles are a profile of existing standards for data structures and also doesn't create new ones.
      • Austin adds they should meet and review with ITS (going from model to wire format), MnM to review the modeling for V3 and content; FHIR, if that is the standards they will constrain and profile. They may also need to work with SOA as well. The others are more about the domain content. They will need to review their use of the ISO/HL7 Datatypes. He further adds that HL7 has established a US Realm Task Force to help deal with these projects and timelines for balloting can be coordinated with other projects. When do they think they will ballot? Spring or fall - May or September cycle. The sooner they can draft their HL7 Project scope statements the sooner they can get that moving. Farrah notes they have a draft PSS started and how do we think they need to break it up? That's a question for the US Realm Task Force, Wednesday at 5 PM. John Quinn also will check in with Jennifer when he's in their offices to offer some guidance.
    • HL7 Membership requirements for Governance/Management group appointments
      • Does such a membership require one be a voting member as compared to an employee of an organizational member? Co-chairs, for example, do not have to be voting members. Affiliates for example have a limited number of voting members. CAN used to have only 6 for example. Being a member of an affiliate does not automatically allow you to be a voting member of HL7 International. For members of an organization, do we need to get affirmation from the key member of an organization to confirm their eligibility. John Quinn notes this should probably go through the membership committee and the Board for policy setting.
