THIS WAS A JOINT MEETING WITH O&O SO THESE ARE NOTES ONLY. 1. Nutrition Ballot Reconciliation - DAM • This will be re-balloted • Will include a business process flow of how the nutrition orders work • Information is mostly complete – dynamic model needs some work • Target January 2012 ballot for complete DAM – will also include some additional data • Will start on logical model project • Will include Pharmacy WG in these discussions about using Pharmacy models 2. Review of PSS – PRODUCT LOGISTICS • Version 2.9 standard • O&O owns Chapter 17 – so will be the sponsor of this Project • Target date May 2012 WGM • Approved by O&O as a project 3. IHE/XDW Strategy Action: Tom to raise in Structured Document as a topic for Joint SDWG/Pharmacy WG meeting 4. Composite Order • Patrick provided an overview • Includes common pieces, but may not contain all of the edge cases • Updated to use current version of RIM and Datatypes R2 • Once next version is complete, Patrick will forward to Pharmacy and arrange a review session

San Diego, CA, USA; Tuesday 13 September 2011; Q2 Joint with O&O THIS WAS A JOINT MEETING WITH O&O SO THESE ARE NOTES ONLY. 1. CPM Governance • Link on CPM Governance page (http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=CPM_Governance) This is a draft for comment: • Principles • The Common Product Model is freely available for any HL7 to modeller to use for representation of clinical products, devices, substances or any other material that has to be identified, named and have its manufacturing, packaging, licensing or composition specified. • Modellers are encouraged to use the existing CMETs or if they are inappropriate to derive new CMETs from the core model. Alternatively CPM structures may be used as a pattern to follow. CMETs are much the preferred route since this makes change management easier and makes all CPM modelling visible from one source. • Where a modeller wishes to create a new CMET they should follow the procedure below to ensure that the CMET generated is not already covered by existing CMETs and that the concepts involved have been correctly used. • Procedure • Notify the OO list that a new CMET is required. • Time will be allocated on conference calls or at working meetings to ensure the requirements for the new CMET are discussed and understood. • The outcome of the discussion will be either agreement that a new CMET is required or agreement that an existing CMET is adequate. • Where a new CMET is required it should be developed and balloted as normal. • When a number for the new CMET is required the keeper of CMET numbering will only issue one with the confirmation of OO that the above procedure has been followed and a new CMET has been approved. • There was agreement that the draft governance was acceptable • Motion to adopt policy for CPM Governance on Wiki • Hugh moved/Gunther seconded • Carried: 3 abstain; 0 against; 20 in favour Action: Creation of a DMIM for CPM from which other RMIMs are proper constraints – Hugh 2. CPM Questions • 1 – Use case for national authority – territory that scopes the agency is not the same as the territory where authorization is valid in • Single authorization • 2 – Add a relationship from marketing act to approval • Gunther to edit comments • 4 – use case for SDLOC – need to be able to describe an organization • not just single address, but also also other addresses in other roles (eg location where safety location is processed which may not be the location where marketing approval is registered at) • “bricks and mortar locations” within an organization – it is a place Action: Model the requirements in the two ways suggested (as organizations vs as locations and then review. Will make a decision after the review (Julie). This will be brought back to an O&O conference call • CNID – Action: Julie to take away and see if Issue can be used. 3. Harmonization Proposals • It is expected that there will be proposals needed for concept sub-domains. Julie will post any requirements to the CPM Wiki. 4. Planning for January 2012 WGM • We will plan a joint meeting for next WGM – Tuesday Q2. There will not be a joint meeting Tuesday Q1.

Agenda Topics • IHE Pharmacy/epSOS Update • IHE Medication Documentation/profile topic Supporting Documents • IHE medication profile document Minutes/Conclusions Reached 1. Status Update from IHE Pharmacy / epSOS • epSOS • The epSos Project aims to have intra-European connectivity for prescriptions and patient summary. It uses the CDA standard. [At the time of the start of the epSOS project there was no IHE Pharmacy profile.] • All the current efforts in the project are focused on the deployment of the specifications – getting everybody in the participating nations on board. There may be some new requirements, but not at present. • Implementation is now devolved to the participating countries – to developing their national contact points (NCPs) which should then connect the national (ePrescribing) infrastructure. • IHE • Developing the "Supply chain/logistics" white paper and "Medication documentation" white paper are main areas of work. There is also the infusion pump work which is using HL7 V2. • We noted that creating a white paper for a new topic is useful approach before working to create specifications, to gather together business requirements and thoughts on the domain. 2. Overview of IHE medication documentation /profile topic • The IHE Medication Documentation White Paper (circulated to the Pharmacy list serve by Tom) is looking to produce guidelines to distinguish and interpret the different building blocks for medication information. It will discuss how to gather the information, how to reconcile it and (possibly) how to present it to the user in a view for them to use – although this latter (data representation) is usually out of scope of IHE. • This is likely to be broken down into sections for guidelines for the different steps of the medication process – prescribing information, dispensing information etc. • The guidelines should be architecture agnostic. • The white paper could lead to a change control for the PCC (Patient Care Co-ordination) profile or on the Reconciliation profile. There are no deadlines for the white paper process; development is usually driven by levels of vendor interest. The white paper is currently at the "brainstorming" level. • What can HL7 contribute to this paper: we have definitions of many of the concepts involved: prescriptions, dispenses, etc. and of the actors involved in the process. We also have some architecture patterns for the processes that we can contribute, rather than these having to be documented de novo. 3. (Other) Potential topics for joint HL7/IHE meeting • The Medication Documentation white paper will be a main area of discussion; Julie will give presentation based on what she has in her thesis to date and Tom will share the slides that he showed describing information flows into a Medication Document in this meeting. • We would probably like to aim for a joint white paper with IHE Pharmacy. • Showing – might be useful for the joint meeting • Also possible agenda topics include: • Infusion topic (IVs via pumps); • Substitution; • Showing the different medication-related models that exist in HL7 – CPM, Clinical Statement, Pharmacy Messages, CDA/CCD; • Roadmap for future co-operation 4. XDW • The bulk of the relevant discussion for this topic took place in the joint meeting with O&O Q1 Tuesday. • XDW is used in the CDA paradigm to manage workflow in a document that is separate from the CDA document. It record actions and gives instructions appropriate to an accompanying (CDA) document. It also has accompanying business rules to make it work. • The XDW specification has recently been re-written and put out for public consultation in IHE in order to get it into the profiles for Connectathon, but the timing is such that it may not make it through in time for the N American Connectathon. • XDW is a generic approach for any "workflow", IHE Pharmacy can then decide whether to use it or not to describe Pharmacy workflow. 5. ISO Business Requirements for a Dose Syntax • This – the business requirements for a Dose Syntax - has been accepted as a new work item for TC215WG6. • Scott is now the official ISO lead, although this has possibly not been communicated to the WG6 secretariat; Tim will sort this out with Shirin (the NEN secretariat).

Nicolas Canu PHAST France nicolas.canu@phast.fr Agenda Topics • Pharmacy Implementation Guide Supporting Documents • None Minutes/Conclusions Reached 1. Pharmacy Implementation Guides • Project Scope Statement is now updated and approved. • Hugh reviewed the Pharmacy Wiki Implementation Guide content in its current format/state. He showed the ballot introduction and highlighted areas that need work on e.g. the Timing information. • Hugh showed what he has done on the wiki for displaying information in different sections. He referenced work similar to this i.e. MnM Hot Topics page. There remains work on formatting and other tidying up tasks, but he didn’t think it would be too difficult. • The current Category:RX Implementation Topic is located here:

http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=Category:Rx_Implementation_Topic 

• You can have other index pages to present pages in different sequences. • Who is our target audience? The developer of the jurisdictional implementation – not the individual software developer. • People who want to implement Pharmacy messages in a trading partner situation • A common starting point is that somebody who needs to use the Pharmacy content has been told "you need to implement pharmacy messages". • One of the first questions for an implementer is what architecture am I working under? This will determine the set of messages out of the total that need to implemented. • Suggest that they might draw out a business process model to see the interactions – both for yourself and for your partner(s) focusing on the major areas – how to do "prescribing"; how to do "dispensing" • Implementers will go to their own implementation guides, not to HL7 International, for detailed implementation guidance – so not to the level of snippets of xml. • Other topics/ideas to include in the implementation guide: o timing specifications o Common Product Model o Landing page – architectures on one axis, processes on other. If you know both, can go directly to the set of interactions. If you don't know, then you can go to the blurb about each, to find out more. o Once you get to a specific message payload, need to map to your own business elements – and to describe some of the details about how to do that. • Review of External Implementation Guides o Tom de Jong reviewed the Nictiz Medication Process implementation guide.  It starts with storyboards. Note that by this point the architecture is assumed; there is a separate document about the overarching architecture for the message flows.  Use links to the ballot – don't duplicate its content.  Have separated the dynamic from the static – have a library of static data structures – basically CMETs  Separate section on dosage that is applicable to both prescribing and dispensing, and a detailed subsection on how to use GTS in dose timing, particularly pointing out the pitfalls and how to avoid them (using datatypes R1) o Jean Duteau reviewed the IG for Saskatchewan.  This guide was similar but includes state diagrams, conformance profiles for the particular ventor types (separate documents). Also clearly states what is different from the pan-Canadian implementation, and why.  In queries, there are a lot of choice of queries – discusses value of one over another.  Some xml snippets for some datatypes – e.g. II but not for GTS (use bounded PIVL) and vocabulary sets.  All our attribute descriptions are against the DMIM, and have cut-and-paste to RMIMs. The suggestion is that we move these to the wiki. This will provide readers with detailed information in a more accessible format that what is in the ballot.  Take RMIM picture and divide it up with business names over the classes (like in teaching examples) Action: Hugh will create more structure in the Pharmacy Wiki to help move the Implementation Guide work forward.

Fumika Kubota Pharmaceuticals and Medical Device Agency Japan kubota-fumika@pmda.go.jp Agenda Topics • Ballot Preparation • Electronic Services Committee Feedback • Drug Knowledge query Ballot Base Feedback • New Action Items Supporting Documents • None Minutes/Conclusions Reached 1. Ballot Preparation • The group confirmed that we aim to complete the requirements and use cases for the Institutional messages for the next ballot. • We looked at the February OOS notes (on the wiki) that mention existing documents; we need to gather these together and review them on the TC 26th September. Action: Hugh: To gather together all the institutional materials that we have. 2. Electronic Services Committee Feedback (Jean) • The Electronic Services Committee liked "Dropbox" – HQ might buy an enterprise license for this (Jean and Lorraine C to investigate costs). 3. Drug Knowledgebase Query Ballot Feedback (Jean) • Drug Knowledgebase Query: we have changed the model as part of the reconciliation process, so this is deemed substantive and we do need to re-ballot. 4. New Action Items • Fuzzy medication statements (originally from ICSR use cases, but also occurs in medication history) – "I took medication x for only about 30 days or so". We agreed we should be able to persist a text string for this type of inexact statement. Action: Tom to list requirements for supporting this. • How to use Act Priority Code and how to model "PRN dosage". "PRN" should be modelled using the pre-condition construct. However, there may be confusion as there is a PRN concept in the current HL7 vocabulary (code system) for Act Priority. This vocabulary is not well structured – it has concepts in it that do not fit the concept domain (e.g. "UD – used as directed). The concept domain of ActPriority Description is "A code or set of codes (e.g., for routine, emergency,) specifying the urgency under which the Act happened, can happen, is happening, is intended to happen, or is requested/demanded to happen. Discussion: This attribute is used in orders to indicate the ordered priority, and in event documentation it indicates the actual priority used to perform the act. In definition mood it indicates the available priorities. It was suggested that we might submit a harmonisation proposal such that "UD" and "PRN" and "Pre-op" be removed from the Act Priority code system; alternatively, to propose a Pharmacy value set (possibly from Snomed® CT – child of SCTID 272125009 – priorities (Type:= qualifier value)). Action: Tom to prepare a harmonisation proposal for Act Priority Code clean-up. • Datatypes R2 has re-introduced EIVL – Event-related periodic interval. It is possible now to describe both frequency and EIVL. EIVL consists of a code and an offset – to allow the description of "40minutes before bedtime" – "40minutes" is the offset and "before bedtime" is the (coded) description of the regular event of daily life. We should no longer rule out the use of EIVL in specification of dosage instructions. Action: Tom to prepare a harmonisation proposal for additional EIVL concepts. Action: To add to the Dose Syntax/Timing information about how to use EIVL correctly (see also Implementation Topics To Do list). • Name Part Qualifiers (recent list discussion). Can the R2 (IDMP) Name Parts be used in datatypes R1.1 (pre-adopted parts). In R2, it is acceptable to leave the "type" attribute of EN blank, whereas in R1 this is not possible, and "Given" has been used. Action: To add something to the Implementation Guidance as to how to use Name Parts for medicines. Action: Hugh/Julie to follow up with Mead to make sure his use case is clearly understood and to find a solution. • We have confirmed that posting Minutes to the wiki is sufficient for requirements. But it is important that everyone can find the Minutes and therefore we should ask HQ to have a link from the HL7 website Pharmacy page to the Pharmacy wiki page (just like O&O). Action: Hugh to ask HQ to have a link from the HL7 website Pharmacy page to the Pharmacy wiki page.

Agenda Topics • Open Discussions/New Business Supporting Documents • None Minutes/Conclusions Reached 1. Open Discussions / New Business • SOA Discussion • Ken Rubin presented an idea related to an abstract content profile. hData and other components were discussed. An idea for how to use specific technology and retrieve data using a service that may be defined using SAEF processes. Both Ken (SOA) and Gerald (hData) spoke about contributing resources to this effort. • SOA behavior e.g. get, put, etc.( not functional dynamic workflow) defined by the SOA team • Pharmacy WG would provide content/payload and domain experience. • Ana suggested that we would not want to include the IHE white paper content in this project. • hData profile is specified by Gerald and others on his team • Ken has a Cerner proposal related to this suggested use case. • General discussion about what specific content we would provide. • Hugh expressed that BlueWave is interested in this project. • Action Item: Hugh G will serve as the Pharmacy lead for the SOA project. • Ken Rubin motioned to accept an agreement in principle to work on pharmacy hData content profile to target May, 2012 ballot. Seconded by Hugh Glover. Vote: 11 0 4 • Radiographic Contrast Agents • Harry Solomon is proposing management of radiographic contrast agents. • This is a HL7 version 2.x proposal. • Prior to administering the contrast, we want to bar code the contrast info. We need a query – greenfield query. • Point of administration contraindication checking at the time of administration. This is also a query. Contraindication checks ‘may’ include drug-drug, drug-drug allergy, drug – lab test checking. • Discussion about if we can address both the first proposal (SOA) and this proposal together. General impression is that while this second proposal may use ‘some’ elements of the SOA proposal, the radiographic proposal is more complex and will require additional services ( I think). This does not prevent us from going forward. • Broader discussion on how we can include clinical decision support and SOA services together in a single project. • Julie made the point that radiographic systems don’t have the same clinical decision support functions that are found in clinical systems that include this same functionality. • Action Item: Harry Solomon has the action item to get clinical decision support, pharmacy, SOA and diagnostic imaging all on a call to discuss this in more detail. • Harry S raised another issue with radiopharmaceuticals. Workflow, and information management, terminology, dosing measured on infusion into scanners, reporting doses to radiologists. This is a separate topic from the other radiology topic. • Green Pharmacy • Robert Warden presented a case for SIMBAA simplified model based application architecture. This approach simplifies the RMIM into a simpler class model. Robert demonstrated this with an example model for Patient and the attribute administrativeGender. He was able to create business names and preserve the ability to generate a fully specified v3 message structure and / or a green Pharmacy message structure. • General discussion about “Green” healthcare content. Action: Contact Bob Dolin to assure we are in the loop when green CDA covers Pharmacy content.
