• Action Items

Discussion:

• Review of current member list
• Review of updated M&C
• Updated on Consolidated CDA extension issue
• Continued discussion re: scope of USR-SC activities - will it vote on dispositions/own content? (Question from FHIR)

Minutes

• Agenda review: no additions or subtraction
• Brian Pech to confirm availability to serve
• Consolidated CDA extension: has been passed out of the GOC and has gone to EC; will go to membership for vote.
• USR-SC activities voting on dispositions/own content: will we have a registry for US Realm? We decided to wait for specific examples. The Board will have a retreat at the end of this month and one topic is addressing the issue of a US affiliate. Ed’s belief is that we’ll in some way have a US affiliate but the details are not clear yet. Would possibly be called HL7-US. Paul: bulk of work done within the WGs should not be perceived as country specific. However there are times that there are materials specific to jurisdictions that can be dealt with by a committee off on the side. Johnathan Coleman agrees. Paul agrees that the US Affiliate should exist but its work should be small compared to HL7 international. Brian suggests it could serve as a buffer when there are questions specific to US healthcare. Normally affiliates are populated with people from the affiliate and our group is populated differently. Paul suggests setting up the affiliate and have the affiliate business meeting at the WGM.
  • Registry issue: Paul thinks there is big advantage for a single place to go. It would be really useful if profiles or artifacts could be tagged by realm; make it easy for people to get it, but don’t sent them to different places. There is a registry effort coming together, so it makes more sense to use that rather than think about creating a separate one. Ed agrees, states that there is still confusion over who is doing that registry. We should take this time to make requests for registry requirements. Concern that it may not be following HL7’s standard way of conducting projects. Ed agrees, asks where the push should come from? Paul states that FMG should participate in terms of requirements and the evaluation of things, but EST would manage the process of it. Ed will have a conversation with Chuck/Ken/John regarding this issue to make sure the work is being done within our processes.
  • Next week: put FHIR issues as key part of the agenda. Also people needs to send regrets if they’re not showing up.
