#Is an order associated with a problem part of a concern or part of a plan?
 
##We could leave it very loose and permit it, or we could specify that the link is via the plan.Both are possible.
 
##Build an instance diagram to clarify the issue, and possibly demonstrate that there is no problem. Which is looking likely.
 
##There were concerns that this would might lead to the risk of duplication of orders, but that is more of a governance issue rather than an information architecture issue. We should notify Care Plan domain of risk of duplicate orders due to attaching orders to Concern object.
 
#Is there a rule or assumption that related events (e.g., results, administrations) be associated with the source event's concern?
 
##Possibly; it could be left to policy.
 
##Events are already attached through the diagnosis.Do you buy anything by creating the explicit concern tag?
 
##There is a need for editorial control over potentially large volume of data
 
##Leave this as an option for manual or automatic attachment.
 
#Is there a 'context' that automatically associates an event with a particular “in context” concern? Are there boundaries we need to identify--i.e., does the clinician need to be aware of context and consciously indicate when it changes?
 
##Good to reduce need to explicitly associate things. Clinicians are not inclined to extra administration.
 
##Closing contexts may not happen.
 
##We need more clinician input on UX.
 
##Or leave context management to implementers. Out of scope for DAM.
 
#When merging, is the name the more recent, or does the merger get to choose?
 
##Both are kept. Option to adopt or not
 
##But: you may also want a “locally familiar” name that does not diverge semantically but is easier to read.
 
##The new custodian is likely to be from another discipline with other needs of recognizing the concern is his specialty domain. Added “localName” to model to support this.
 
#Is ‘follow-up’ a concern? It looks like it might be a classifier for an encounter associated with the discharge dx concern.
 
##It may be an event under a concern.
 
#Would a provider add a separate concern to the list to support past medical history, or is there a different mechanism for history? Might there be a different status--e.g., active, resolved but historically relevant, and inactive?
 
##Not likely. Most likely would be to change the state of a concern: Active or inactive.
 
##Or are there rules for what shows up in History -- timeframe, seriousness. These “history inclusion” rules are specific to the institution.
 
##Modern search engines in the big data era are capable of retrieving complex key words.

Previous Meeting

There was no quorum to approve the minutes of April 2nd

Review of use cases

  • We wanted to harmonize the model for Care Plan and Health Concern, but we did not have enough participants to discuss this topic.
  • We focused on the use case 1 and 2.
    • There were doubts whether these scenarios added new views to the existing explanation.
    • We distinguished 2 approaches to health concern.
      • The first is a pro-active approach where the care provider defines a health concern and sets out health concern events. This issue might be part of care planning.
      • The second is a retrospective view on problems and where the care provider concludes that certain health care events have relationship with the concern and therefore attaches these events to the health concern.
      • A combination of these two approaches are possible. In many cases the care provider does not know on day 1 what the concern is and starts of with a review of the problems in the past. Then after a hypothesis of the concerns sets out research and finally when the diagnosis is clear, defines a care plan.
      • The second approach is a characteristic of the health concern. The first approach is how the care plan addresses the health concern.
    • A Care plan is usually only defined in complex care, because it is labor intensive. Many health concerns do not have a formal care plan.

We will discuss the relationship between Care Plan and Health Concern on Wednesday 22 April 5 pm and Thursday 23 April 4 pm.
