PROJECTS
The CIMI-sponsored HL7’s Integration of Information Models and Tools (IIM&T) project facilitates alignment/harmonization/integration among a federated set of CIMI-compliant models: SOLOR, FHIM, DCMs and CEMs, CQI CQF, US CORE, QI Core, etc.; where, this federated modelling is dependent on common CIMI principles and constructs (e.g., Reference Archetypes and semantic anchor Patterns) shared among those models. CIMI encourages 4-6 month pilot-project sprints; where, results are presented at HL7 workgroup meetings; so that; the CIMI workgroup can update its Architecture (Principles, Reference Archetypes, Semantic-Anchor Patterns, Processes, DCMs), documentation and related exemplars, tutorials and videos.
- IIM&T Lead SMEs: Keith Campbell, Stan Huff, Julia Skapik, Steve Wagner
- IIM&T Proponents: ONC OST, FHA, DoD/VA IPO, FDA, CDC
- The set of CIMI-compliant models are collectively called the Clinical Logical Information Model (CLIM).
- CLIM is not a new model; but, the set of CIMI archetypes and CIMI-compliant models (e.g., SOLOR, FHIM, CQF, DCMs, FHIR profiles and extensions)
- CLIM can be maintained within an HL7 Service Aware Interoperability Framework (SAIF) Enterprise Compliance and Conformance Framework [ECCF] matrix of
- business/behavioral, information and system/technical columns/dimensions each with conceptual, logical and implementation rows/viewpoints

GOVERNANCE
- To encourage Information Model consistency, traceability and reuse:
- CIMI collaborates with other workgroups and organizations, which are governed apart from HL7.
- These projects are voluntarily being harmonized using CIMI Principles and Reference Models (e.g., PC, CQI, CDS, EHR, HSPC, etc.).
- Externally-developed CIMI-compliant information-models can be donated to HL7 for
- HL7 configuration management, peer review and standardization.
- Milestones
- 2010-05 – CIMI became an IHTSDO workgroup
- 2016-01 – CIMI became an HL7 workgroup
- 2016 Jan-Sep – CIMI-sponsored HL7 IIM&T investigative study
