Agenda

1. Open questions

Minutes

1. Note: we're using the HL7 phone number in the interest of being open; we're using our GoToMeeting because HL7 doesn't provide it. We'll exclude the GTM dial-in next time to reduce confusion.
2. Revisions to be published by next meeting
3. Next meeting to be 11/29, not 11/22 (which is Thanksgiving)
4. Scope: probably will expand scope to NEMSIS dataset
   1. Tentative Strategy: include all elements optionally, and then create (optional) sub-specifications requiring or recommending specific sections or statements
   2. Keep current scope for initial implementation & project scope; retro-fit this spec to be a child of the next one
5. Jay to present comparison of CCD statement with EMS statement for consideration
   1. Does it make sense to conform to CCD statements or sections for re-use, even if it means including a lot of fields we know we'll always null for EMS?
6. Question: if we ask SNOMED for an extension (our own coding namespace), should we ask for one distinct from Trauma (as they are distinct) or ask for a 'super-domain' (because there's a lot of overlap)?
   1. Answer (per Clay): they need to be different
