CDA R3 Formal Proposals are proposals that will or have been formally submitted to SDTC for consideration for incorporation into CDA R3. Each of these proposals will be or has been reviewed by committee. Those that have been accepted will be part of the CDA R3 specification when it is ultimately released for formal HL7 balloting. See also the CDA Suggested Enhancements for a list of suggested enhancements that have been captured over the past couple of years. Suggested enhancements will be reviewed and many will be promoted as formal proposals, particularly where the use case is clear.

Process

A formal proposal may be raised by anyone.

To raise a formal proposal:

1. Create a new wiki page. (You can create a page from scratch, simply by entering the name of the new page in the search-box on left, which results in a page with the text There is no page titled "your new page name". Select your new page name and the new page will be created).

1. Copy the contents of CDA R3 Formal Proposal Template into your new page. (Make sure when copying the contents that the first line is "{{SDTC Open Proposal}}", which will automatically make your page show up in the Table of Contents below).

1. Send an e-mail to the [SDTC list] alerting the committee so that agenda and discussion time can be arranged.

Resolution process:

• Hot topics will be reviewed on a regular basis at both MnM conference calls (MnM Schedule) and working group meetings.
• The hot topics for discussion at a given conference call or meeting will be governed by several considerations
  • Whether the wiki discussion seems to be close to reconcilliation
  • Whether there has been progress on the list servers and/or wiki since the issue was last discussed
  • Whether the principle participants in the discussion are available to discuss the topic
• Hot topics will generally be scheduled for discussion either at the end of the MnM conference call the week preceding a hot topics discussion, or for WGMs, the Sunday afternoon prior to the start of the WGM.
• Results of MnM discussions will be posted to the WGM
• Hot topics are resolved by motion and context-sensitive (key interested stake-holders must be respresentived) quorum vote of the MnM meeting where the issue is discussed
  • Depending on the level of impact and controversy around a topic, the resolution may be brought forward to Thursday Night round-table for confirmation by the full set of MnM facilitators
• A hot topic may be re-opened by quorum vote at an MnM hot topics call in circumstances where new information not previously considered in the prior resolution of the issue is brought forward.
• Upon resolution, a hot topic will be either categorized as
  • resolved - if there are further outstanding actions to be taken by MnM or other committees, or
  • closed - if all action items have been completed
• MnM will monitor the action items for hot topics categorized as resolved with a view to seeing them move to closed as soon as feasible.
