Suggested topics for future IATs

• Linda Michealson:
  • I have come across a couple of “how do EMR’s do this” or “do EMR’s send this” questions in the past couple of weeks and I know the IAT is good place to ask these. Do you have any place we could start to accumulate these type of thing for the next IAT?
    • How do systems communicate what they support?
      • For FHIR, Epic and Cerner both provide sandboxes with documentation and testing.
      • For C-CDA, it’s non-existent (one link I found on Epic)

• Progress Note – VA and Epic support, who else is considering as their primary encounter document
• Discharge Summary – how do you include medications administered during an inpatient stay
• Medication section deep dive – administered medications vs historical vs ordered vs dispensed vs med list. What do you send and how?
• CCD – What range of data for each section do you send when an on-demand document is created.
• Value set and Vocabulary maintenance – What are reasonable expectations for your customers to update vocabulary

• From IATs 1-5
  • IATs 3 and 4 topics were the following; should we continue with these?:
    • Continuity of Care Document (CCD)
    • Discharge Summary
    • Referral Note
    • Care Plan
      • General Care Plans (Virtual IAT)
      • Specialty Care Plans (Virtual IAT)
