1. Roll Call
2. Approve Agenda - Approved
3. Learning Health Systems - new Work Group see template at: http://gforge.hl7.org/gf/download/docmanfileversion/8393/12455/LHS%20WG%20template.docx
   • (These notes from the call added 2014-12-15 by Freida Hall): Andy stated only question from proposal was why T3SD was selected as SD; Russ commented HL7 HQ suggested T3SD. New WG plans to create a domain analysis model (DAM) for Learning Health Systems (LHS) and has recruited the requested core WG membership, plus has added additional members beyond those named in the New WG Template. Melva commented establishing a DAM seems to be finite and a project vs. a work group. Also questioned why T3SD suggested, since T3SD WGs don't create standards. From Russ's description, this group would seek out other WGs to execute work, similar to FMG model; FMG is currently organized under the TSC but now that FHIR is more established is pursing forming a WG. T3SD discussed if LHS needs to interact with Education Work Group? Melva asked how LHS relates to existing Decision Support WG (which is in Structure & Semantic Design SD). Russ stated there's no doubt there is some overlap with other WGs; LHS would be focal point to tie together disparate systems. Andy felt there might need to be additional content added to the Template based on the discussion today. Melva suggested Structure & Semantic Design or Foundation and Technology as more appropriate SD. John Ritter commented there are educational components to all WGs, but they don't explicitly belong in SD with Education WG. Melva asked Russ to update the Template to respond to questions discussed today's call. Melva is Steering Division Co-Chair of Domain Groups, felt that Domain Group was more focused to specific domains like pharmacy and patient care and would not be appropriate Steering Division. Since the New Work Group template has a section to record SD "Approved" or "Rejected" we think the proposed new WG is to try to find their SD 'home' vs. the TSC assigning. Action: Andy did not want to take a vote 'rejecting' (as stated on the New Work Group template) LHS and will forward the updated template to the Co-Chairs of Foundations & Technology and Structure and Semantic Design to determine which would be the best fit.

   • Education
     • Learning Partner proposal – pending update, then will be forward to EC. V2 Workshop is waiting on information from Patrick Loyd. Ongoing discussion of transformation, how to get others involved. Discussion as to whether Education should be a WG or an advisory group to HQ. Potential for new certification exam related to MLM/Arden Syntax; will outreach to Arden Syntax WG.
   • Electronic Services & Tools
     • Andy reported debate re: upcoming tooling budget; discussion with CTO, Executive Committee. Evaluating Tooling Strategy and ongoing projects. Looking for strategic vision of Board (ES and Tooling perspectives). New WGM room booking tool has had good 'shake-out'; it is in maintenance mode but also building in a few features arising from usage for the January 2015 meeting. Tooling liaison meeting scheduled this week.
   • International Mentoring
     • John reported IMC is attempting to meet November 7 to discuss nomination of Dr. John Gachago as 3rd IMC co-chair. He has been strong contributor on Africa project in HL7 and intends to return to Africa to live January 2015. It would be beneficial for HL7 if John could represent HL7 as IMC co-chair when he returns to Africa. Melva asked about IMC 'work load', does it warrant an additional co-chair, e.g. due to number of calls, attendees, etc. John stated he would be willing to step down as co-chair and felt that John would re-energize IMC if elected. Freida commented election would need to be as 'interim' co-chair, and then follow with HQ announcement for election at the January WGM. Andy commented it's ultimately up to IMC to add a co-chair, geographic representation might be warranted.
