Q3	General Conformance Discussion Primary Topics Prepare for FHIR meeting on Wednesday Prepare for meeting with HL7 & OO & AID for implementation package and validation of HL7v2 Conformance length in HL7 v2 Need to write the history What is allowable in constraining? Additional topics if there is time and interest Implementation Guide Template Standardized conformance section (Boiler plate language that defines the definitions of conformance the way we want it defined. Included directly or referenced.) Pulling out Chapter 2B. Needs a new title: HL7 V2 Conformance Model ? Higher level of constraint definitions that cross product families General V2 Test Cases Specification of Co-Constraints Issues associated with giving constraints on items such as Observation (OBX) segments. Every guide author is using different ways of defining the co-constraints. Discuss ideas about how to standardize the expression of these co-constraints. Asking for feedback in regards to how this is done in other standards such as V3, FHIR, etc. Need a best-practices/recommendations for properly using conformance Conformance supports business requirements, business rules determine how to process receiving data How to handle HL7 versions you don't expect	Chinchon	Host: Conformance Chair: Rob Scribe: Nathan

Implementation Guide Discussion Item proposed by Mario Hyland: Regarding FHIR Lloyd MacKenzie has represented that FHIR as a specification will be versionless. And as such the Capability Statement published by the FHIR Server which includes fhirVersion element (defined as an id - http://www.hl7.org/fhir/datatypes.html#id) "Any combination of upper or lower case ASCII letters ('A'..'Z', and 'a'..'z', numerals ('0'..'9'), '-' and '.', with a length limit of 64 characters. (This might be an integer, an un-prefixed OID, UUID or any other identifier pattern that meets these constraints.)" When we review the approach to Publishing FHIR (see http://hl7.org/fhir/directory.html) we believe it would best practice for FHIR to make fhirVersion a coded-value-set. The purpose of this discussion would be to provide Lloyd (FHIR Management) a forum to explain to the Conformance community how the FHIR Team envision "Continuous Interoperability" as Resources, Profiles, and FHIR progress with versions and higher FMM. We see / envision FHIR capable services and servers acting as either a gateway to a FHIR based infrastructure or a gateway to an existing EHR/other Enterprise Architecture think VA). How would a FHIR interface manage a resource which was created and updated without one version of a profile, then the resource or profile goes through a rare (but expected event) breaking change.
