Minutes

Today's meeting was primary centered on the introduction of a harmonization proposal for the November cycle to reconcile the HL7 Version 3 AdministrativeGender concept domain and value set. The intent is to deprecate the Undifferentiated (UN) concept, as its definition implies clinical aspects of an individual ("The gender of a person could not be uniquely defined as male or female, such as hermaphrodite") as opposed to the intent for this concept domain to be used for administrative purposes only ("The gender of a person used for administrative purposes (as opposed to clinical gender") e.g., placement of a patient in an inpatient room.

Serafina presented an overview of the HL7 Harmonization process and the draft harmonization proposal that was submitted in order to meet the November Harmonization cycle deadline.

Richard interested in cross social (HHS) systems data standards. SAMHSA grant programs cross these silos that makes this an issue that is gaining

Social Service areas - prioritization

• Educational system - schools
  • Information from this agency helps to support early intervention and prevention
  • FERPA - rules related to protecting privacy that could be of interest to DS4P. Richard is hoping that the FERPA functionality will help to facilitate exchange between the silos of education and behavioral health care delivery
