Minutes
- Roll call
- Yan reviewed the agenda
- Yan reviewed the agenda
- Baltimore WG meeting minutes available for review Baltimore WG Meeting Minutes
- Yan reviewed the minutes from the WGM - Highlights below:
- A specific item addressed the Birds-of-a-Feather session for FHIR Reporting which was attended by many CQI, CDS and Public Health members. CQI asked John Loonsk to present further at a subsequent CQI WG meeting. John Loonsk also indicated that he would set up a set of monthly calls to coordinate FHIR reporting across Public Health and clinical care.
- CQI, CDS and CIMI agreed that the current QI Core and QI Core Logical View should continue to be maintained. The three groups agreed to work on a CIMI-derived logical model (which will be called QUICK) from which QI Core could be derived via tooling. The project requires additional work effort. Claude Nanjo will send out information for regular conference calls to address the issue. Until such time that the CIMI-based output is available, QI Core generation will remain manual and continue.
- Patient Care sessions helped define use of Procedure or Task resources (task is a workflow item, procedure is an action on or for a patient) - discussion still in process
- Patient Care sessions discussed identification of a procedure performed adequately (successfully) - discussion still in process
- Patient Care WG weekly calls Thursday 5 - 6:30 PM address FHIR resource issues
- TSC has indicated that starting with the September 2019 ballot cycle, all new PSS approvals must be completely through the approval process (including TSC) by 4 weeks prior to the previous WGM. [Example, for the September 2019 cycle, all approvals through the TSC must be completed by 4 weeks prior to the May 2019 WGM.] The exception is for investigative projects which are short-cycle projects and require a new PSS to go to full ballot. ---- The WG suggested the CQI WGM minutes be updated for Monday Q3 to reflect the discussion of this item.
- QRDA Category 5 update will proceed in the near future
- Yan reviewed the minutes from the WGM - Highlights below:
- FHIR Exchange of Data for Quality Measures (project 1429) - Ballot Reconciliation (Bryn)

- Bryn moved to approve the block vote - Linda Michaelsen seconded - approve/abstain/opposed - 21/0/0
- FHIR Tracker 18670 - Motion by Floyd, seconded by KP: DEQM guide should support communicating the result AND the data required, (i.e., include the submit and collect data operations AND optionally add the score as well). Amended as "The Implementation Guide should support communicating the result AND the data required, (i.e., include the submit and collect data operations but add a use case to support exchanging the score as well via the MeasureReport resource)" - Floyd and KP approve the amendment and calling the comment Persuasive and resolution Substantive.
- Discussion - this modification does not change the submit data and collect data use cases but adding a use case to support exchanging results.
- Vote - Approve/Abstain/Opposed - 18/0/0.

- FHIR Quality-Related IGs - What FHIR implementation guides might be required to support FHIR eCQM and FHIR Reporting, or might FHIR Clinical Reasoning be sufficient - reviewed item-by-item for HQMF and CQL-based HQMF IG volumes 1 and 2 (not volume 3 because that addresses QDM and FHIR eCQMs and reporting uses QI Core)
- Context, Definitions and Background - additional items could be added to the FHIR Clinical Reasoning
- Measure components are effectively covered but might be enhanced
- Population Criteria - might potentially be enhanced
- Human readability - already included in FHIR Clinical Reasoning resources
- Encoding eMeasure Quality Statements are specific to HQMF - not needed in FHIR Clinical Reasoning
- Measure specifications - represented in FHIR Clinical Reasoning
- Nothing in the HQMF specification requires an implementation guide - just more explanatory content in the FHIR Clinical Reasoning Measure, Measure Report sections
- Exceptions in CQL-based HQMF - might need to define some profiles - should that be in the base specifications or in an implementation guide - none is specific to any particular realm (hence does not require US Realm).
- The WG suggested that the facilitators consider extension of DEQM as the IG for quality measure reporting. The DEQM IG covers the needs of both QRDA I and III. The WG requested a proposal from the DEQM and Gaps in Care facilitators about next steps and times for a project call (reinstated) for CQI member participation (Viet will provide).
- There is enough content needed to support eCQM authoring that there is a need for a FHIR-based eCQM Authoring IG that covers the content from CQL-Based HQMF IG Vols I and II.and Gaps in Care need to evaluate the overlap and what artifacts the work requires. There may be benefit by having a single IG. And further that Vol III of the CQL-Based HQMF IG is already covered by QI-Core, so there is no need for content there. This IG may need PSS and will require investigation.
- Composite related harmonization items - WG asked if members remember the prior discussion about what the requirement is for harmonization - the deadline for initial content is October 25, 2018
