Creation of a Set of AID Whitepapers

The Creation of a Set of RIMBAA Whitepapers project was established to manage the process of creating a set of whitepapers.

• Note: This is project #550 in the Project Insight tool. Project approved by FTSD on its call of 2010-10-19. Project approved by TSC on its call on 2010-11-08.

Scope

This is a long running (maintenance type) project to create a set of whitepapers with the consensus based findings of the RIMBAA WG as to what the v3 implementation best practices (or: v3 implementation patterns) are.

Planning

• Software Implementation of CDA, September 2012
  • Sept 2013: for RE-approval

Candidate topics:

• Persisting FHIR Resources.
  • There are three approaches that have already been taken for persisting FHIR resources.
    1. Just each resource by itself with links
    2. Enough of a them linked together to be equivalent to a clinical statement or what we previously referred to as a SMIRF
    3. Entire CDA like documents that contain many clinical statements within them.
  • The experiences of persisting FHIR resources in any of the “clusters” above in the various “NoSQL” databases such as MongoDB (Ewout), CouchDB (Gordon), ?? (PHI), XML (Van Der Zel).
• v2-v3 migration / mapping, inclusive of recommendations as to how one should 'enrich' current v2 interface to ensure ease of transformability.
