     (Revision Markers and comments indicate proposed changes from ballot reconciliation)
     • Overview Chapter - CDC Input
       • Detailed discussion regarding the triggering points for sending a report to public health. There was some discussion on the difference between 'course of treatment' vs 'modality' and relationship with order sets and treatment plans. Decided that we needed to enhance the glossary terms for this and continue to add content to the storyboard (section 6) to reflect the requirements.
       • Discussed Section 7.15 briefly – Wendy will do some further work on this section specifically to add the ambulatory requirements.
   • Refer to Overview Chapter - All Input and Changes to view document following the meeting with meeting notes inserted.
   • ACTION: Salimah or David to look for usecase for 'Sarah Sickly' that reflects patient with multiple courses of treatment that can be added to the Overview.
   • ACTION: Wendy to continue to work on Sections 6 and 7.15 to reflect requirements for reporting.
   • Following is the URL to the SEER document with the information Wendy was reading to the group about first course of therapy (starts on page 171). Note that during the call Wendy was reading quickly, and may have missed some important points of clarification (see Treatment Timing). http://seer.cancer.gov/manuals/2007/SPCSM_2007_maindoc.pdf. there is also more detail on the phases for leukemia treatment on page 174.
