Minutes

• Discussion re: new Board committee for US Realm. How many people do we want? Lorraine suggests no smaller than eight so that quorum is easily reached. Ed suggested ten. Do we want to try to do what the FHIR groups have done, making sure there is vendor and affiliate representation? ArB, MnM, vendor and health providers? Austin wonders if it should be a governance group appointed by the board or a management group? Need an identified group to represent HL7 in the US government, states Ed. Need about 4 people at least to do that, with some overlap into this group. Discussion regarding usefulness of having non-US folks in the group. Discussion on coordination with upcoming changes in governance processes. Lorraine outlines potential nomination process; should include broad perspectives from the community. Ed suggests a rep from each product group is one option. Ed will take all suggestions and put together a draft for the Board. Lorraine will send Ed the call for nominations for FHIR. TSC will approve nominations.
• Pat Van Dyke gives an overview of the Pharmacist EHR-System Functional Profile Release 2. Are the only interested parties US realm? Pat says yes, especially NCPDP. NCPDP is looking for a joint standard – do we need an agreement? Raised question with Karen during WG meeting. Development will largely take place at NCPDP meetings. Johnathan moves to approve; Paul seconds. None opposed, no abstentions. Ed asks Pat to give a future update on how it goes working with NCPDP on this project.
• Call adjourned at 1:30 pm

Meeting Outcomes

Actions Ed to draft nomination process for review by the Board Lorraine to send Ed the call for nominations that FHIR did to perhaps use as a model
