Summary
The Vital Records Domain Analysis Model (VR DAM) describes the work flow processes, data exchanges and vital registration stakeholders for transmitting birth, death and fetal death data for the U.S. vital records systems.
Description
The VR DAM includes activity models of typical birth, death and fetal death processing in the U.S. Flow diagrams are utilized in the model to depict the work flow processes, stakeholders and data exchanges that support vital records data collection, record registration, and certified copy issuance. The VR DAM also includes birth, death and fetal death class models that depict the vital records data captured and the data relationships. Additionally, vital records storyboards provide narrative descriptions illustrating typical scenarios in which vital records information is collected and recorded.
The VR DAM is based on the core set of vital records data elements that are on the United States (U.S.) Standard Certificates of Live Birth and Death and the U.S. Standard Report of Fetal Death. Supporting reference material includes the standard certificates, edit specifications and data collection worksheets and guide to completing the worksheets to provide context for understanding the VR DAM.
Business Case (Intended Use, Customers)
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/National Center for Health Statistics/Division of Vital Statistics (CDC/NCHS/DVS), the National Association for Public Health Statistics and Information Systems (NAPHSIS) and several state representatives have been collaborating over the past few years to guide efforts towards developing national standards for the electronic exchange of birth and death information between public and private systems, define what the appropriate data items are for electronic exchange, and define what the appropriate data content is for each of those variables as specified by the federal government and the jurisdictions.
The goal of the VR DAM is to serve as the foundation to explore the potential for future design and development of information systems to support the needs of the vital records domain. The target audience for this work is anyone wishing to learn more about the public health domain of vital records. The motivation for this project is to present to the public health vital records community a valid representation of the shared meaning of various concepts, relationships, and processes that collectively define the vital records domain. We hope that the streamlined documentation approach and content-centered models facilitate comment by the large community of vital records stakeholders.
Vital records stakeholders include federal, state and local vital records representatives; EHR and vital records systems developers; funeral directors; healthcare providers; and researchers. Other stakeholder groups include those with an interest in vital records data such as immunization and cancer registries.
Benefits
Ultimately, the VR DAM will guide future design and implementation efforts to standardize electronic data exchange among electronic health record systems, vital records systems and potentially other public information systems to meet current and emerging needs. We also plan to map the VR DAM to the developing Electronic Health Records Systems (EHR-S) Vital Records Functional Profile. The Vital Records Functional Profile is currently under development through the support of the HL7 EHR Work Group. The profile will specify the functional requirements needed for vital registration data exchange among providers, states, Federal agencies and other stakeholders. It will also facilitate EHR systems capturing selected vitals-related data at the point of contact or point of care of a patient in a standardized electronic format.
Implementations/ Case Studies (Actual Users)
- CDC/NCHS, NAPHSIS and several state representatives have collaboratively contributed to the development of the VR DAM.
