    • John has provided an updated document for approval
      • MOTION to approve: John/Gora
        • Discussion: Gora notes that some of the work was done in the past. Discussion over giving the WG guidance on this. Group notes that this is pretty standard. Gora says it's going on in his WG - should we send a message to all WGs regarding this? Becomes an issue if TSC decides a project is inappropriate and then a lot of work has already been done. John notes that it's also a problem if appropriate WGs are not included from the start.
      • VOTE: All in favor
        • Continued discussion: Concern that we have a process to get a PSS approved, but we're not encouraging them to get the PSS approved before you get too deep into working on the project. Wayne: Maybe we need some kind of preliminary triage, like a proposal step before we go too deep into the work. Paul: We have that with the PSS-lite, although people aren't widely using it. Gora: We need a defined step called project registration so the intent is established and announced. Freida: If people are not understanding what we have right now, we might have trouble introducing another level and form. Wayne: The form is hard to read. It would help to move it online. Calvin: That would help. We need a new process that is not quite as onerous. Paul mentions using Project Insight. Wayne notes there might be licensing issues but we should look into it. Wayne has been testing this in Confluence. Ken: We would like to see the PSS online; have it more functional so if it's an investigative project.
          • ACTION: Gora to outline a potential process for project announcement/registration. Andy notes that the cochairs list is the place where people are to announce projects, and in fact several were announced last week. Paul: Perhaps we remind at the cochair dinner that announcing on the list is the correct action. Two different use cases we need to address - when there's a new project and when people are looking for a WG to work on the project. Paul: So is the process to create a PSS-lighter? Wayne: We are looking for an adequate process to announce a project to the community. Gora invites others to participate. Paul offers to take a look at what Gora puts together. Melva offers to help as well.
  • All to review updated publication request document (updates to unballoted stu update section, plus added page numbers and revision date in footer)
• Approval items from last week's e-vote approved 7/0/0 with T3SD, Jean, Freida, DESD, Giorgio, Austin, and Wayne voting:
  • Normative Publication Request by the CBCC WG of the DESD for HL7 CDA® R2 Implementation Guide: Privacy Consent Directives, Release 1 at Project Insight 553 and TSC Tracker 12313
    • Note: All previous negatives were withdrawn
• Approval items for this week:
  • Laboratory Results Interface Implementation Guide
  • Specimen DAM Update
  • Document Cover Page Template
• Discussion topics:
  • Initial report from SGB and ARB on addressing the issue of separation of concerns
    • Paul walks group through the document prepared by ARB and SGB. Ken mentions diagram presented by PLA and asks if it was hierarchical. Paul replies that no, it was flow. Wayne: The question is how well is it understood throughout the community - it's about communication, education, awareness. An example was conflicts people may have representing HL7 interests vs. client/employer interests. Paul: The intent is to protect all the parties. Sometimes we put too many hats on a person and they can't wear all those hats with equal quality; can't respond to all masters equally. Wayne: The action is how do we communicate/increase awareness of this?
      • ACTION: Discuss how to communicate on next week's call. Paul asks for people to think about examples of where we see violations of the principle. **Request from eye care professionals for new WG or integration with current WG
    • Dr. Boland came forward with a request for a new eye care WG. Rather than do that, we think we'd like to have them do work under another existing WG. Paul notes that FM has been doing the vision resources, so it's good there is someone interested in doing the work. Ken wonders about OO or Patient Care being an appropriate fit. Melva agrees those are logical choices. OO has a lot of cochairs and resources. Ken summarizes that we could start them there and perhaps split them out later. Wayne notes we should have a standard procedure to start new groups out with another WG, and also that we should resurrect user groups.
      • ACTION: Ken will reach out to OO and Patient Care to see if they would be willing to host the WG
• Adjourned at 12:02 Eastern time
