Agenda

1. Housekeeping
   1. Introduction of visitors (including declaration of interests)
   2. Agenda review and approval -
   3. Approve Minutes of 2018-06-18 TSC Call Agenda
   4. Next week's call/availability
   5. TSC Election
2. Review action items –
   • SDs are invited to submit input to organizational SWOT by 2018-06-25
   • Austin to stand up a naming convention task force
     • First meeting will occur today
   • Austin to craft co-chair messaging on the formal process of redirecting ballot comments
   • John to get the process for redirecting ballot comments onto the GOC agenda
3. Approval items from last week's e-vote referred for discussion
   1. Project Approval Request by the Financial Management WG of the Administrative SD for FHIR Implementation Guide for Coverage Requirements Discovery at Project Insight 1428 and TSC Tracker 17371
      • Referred by Clinical SD: The project does not include an option of the ability of the payer to provide a clinical decision support artifact to enable direct query to the patient record to determine if eligibility requirements are met. The project assumes the common use case of human review and intervention based on content received. That is ok but executable content should not be ignored as a potential use of the same information transfer as a future consideration. And CDS should be checked as a potential product since HL7 cds Standards could be included. Might as for review by the project team or vote No for this reason.
   2. Review/Comment on Proposed Mission and Charter Template for Steering Divisions
      • Referred by Clinical SD: Missing SAIF statement, e.g., [Steering Divison] develops specifications using the principles and language of the Services Aware Interoperability Framework (SAIF) Canonical Definition (CD).
   3. Review/Approve Updated Withdrawal Request Template
      • Referred by ARB: 1.Why isn't it in confluence if that is our direction? 2. If you are going to incorporate "Check boxes form fields" in a word document, please: a. Make all of the entry spaces Form fields or b:leave them as simple empty table. "De-affirmation" ballot is a limited scope ballot to request voters to approve the withdrawal of the published artifact, following regular HL7 NIB and ballot processes" IMHO: If we balloted it, whether it got officially published or not, it needs to take the same steps to withdraw. In the eyes of the community, if it passed ballot, it exists. Does not account for 'Whitepaper', which is a whole category defined in the GOM.
   4. Project Approval Request by the Attachments WG of the Administrative SD for Attachments Frequently asked Questions (FAQ) living document at Project Insight 1415 and TSC Tracker 17372
      • Referred by ARB
   5. Review/Comment on Board Strategic Goals
      • Referred by ARB: "Establish FHIR as the primary standard for global health data interoperability." Effectively tells the community that all of the other work is no longer supported. FHIR is not mature enough. If this is in fact the direction, why would one remain an HL7 member unless they are on FHIR? The use case of large-scale implementation has not been achieved. 99% of our day-to-day operations are V2, and if HL7 is committing all of the resources to FHIR, then there is no perceived organizational support.
4. Approval items from last week's e-vote: Quorum not yet achieved
   1. Normative Publication Request by the CDS WG of the Clinical SD for HL7 Version 3 Standard: Decision Support Service Release 2, Normative Standard Release 1 at Project Insight 1015 and TSC Tracker 17369
   2. Normative Publication Request by the CDS WG of the Clinical SD for HL7 Version 3 Standard: Virtual Medical Record for Clinical Decision Support (vMR-CDS) Logical Model, Normative Standard Release 2 at Project Insight 1017 and TSC Tracker 17370
5. Approval items for this week:
   1. Withdrawal Request by the SOA WG of the Infrastructure SD for Medication Statement Service Profile at Project Insight 838 and TSC Tracker 17415
   2. Informative Publication Request by the CQI WG of the Clinical SD for HL7 CDA® R2 Implementation Guide: Supplemental QRDA Clinical Quality Data Sharing User Guide, Release 1 at Project Insight 1215 and TSC Tracker 17416
   3. STU Publication Request by the Structured Docs WG of the Infrastructure SD for HL7 CDA R2 Implementation Guide: C-CDA R2.1 Supplemental Templates for Nutrition, Release 1 at Project Insight 1371 and TSC Tracker 17417
   4. Project Approval Request by the Public Health WG of the Clinical SD for Bidirectional Services eReferrals (BSeR) at Project Insight 1423 and TSC Tracker 17418

3. Approval items from last week's e-vote referred for discussion

And CDS should be checked as a potential product since HL7 cds Standards could be included. Might as for review by the project team or vote No for this reason.
        • MK suggests they haven’t done the full discovery and the scope is in flux. Ken suggests it could be an investigative project. Austin suggests we ask them to update the scope.
          • MOTION to ask the WG to update the PSS based on Clinical SD’s comments: Floyd/MK
            • ACTION: Paul to ask the proponents to consider the comments and make appropriate updates
          • VOTE: Ken abstains. Remaining in favor.
   2. Review/Comment on Proposed Mission and Charter Template for Steering Divisions
      • Referred by Clinical SD: Missing SAIF statement, e.g., [Steering Divison] develops specifications using the principles and language of the Services Aware Interoperability Framework (SAIF) Canonical Definition (CD).
        • Melva wasn’t sure if we needed a version of the SAIF statement in SD M&Cs.
          • MOTION that TSC rescind its requirements that everyone provide SAIF statements in their M&C: Ken/Melva
            • Discussion: Melva states that people don’t understand the SAIF statements. Would be better to have something that is understandable and meaningful. Need a boilerplate statement around the business architecture regarding how steering divisions fit in.
              • ACTION: ARB/Austin to look at crafting boilerplate statement to replace current SAIF statements.
          • AMENDED MOTION that we remove the current SAIF statement to be replaced with wording defined by the ARB: Ken/Melva
          • VOTE: All in favor
   3. Review/Approve Updated Withdrawal Request Template

In the eyes of the community, if it passed ballot, it exists. Does not account for 'Whitepaper', which is a whole category defined in the GOM. Lynn notes that white papers are balloted Informative.

        • VOTE: All in favor
