A New Normative Standard for Value Set Definitions

Overview

[From the PSS] Describe the elements that make up a “Value Set Definition”, and ballot this as a normative HL7 specification, including a demonstration of how this is met in FHIR profiles and HL7 Model Interchange Format (MIF).

The definition of value sets is a required activity in completing the specification of most health information technology artefacts. To date, the approach for doing so has not been consistent within HL7 constructs and elsewhere. Many of the required elements and approaches are embedded in existing HL7 artefacts but not consistently. Currently, an explicit list of all the fields in an HL7 value set definition are surfaced only in the informative balloted MIF, with a general description of them in the normative Core Principles specification. A more accessible and standardized list of these fields is required to facilitate interoperability and sharing of value set definitions across HL7 artefacts and the Health IT community at large.

Success criteria: Publishing of the normative standard, and a demonstration of value set definitions that conform to this published normative specification.

    2. Discussion on how to control use of DYNAMIC defined value sets continued on 12/20 meeting.
      1. Rob and Lloyd still have to create document and use cases to explain approach to "STATUS" / DYNAMIC stability.
    3. Metadata sheet review now complete
      1. Completed discussion of Value Set Expansion metadata with changes added to end of spreadsheet.
        1. A Value Set Definition can reference 0..* "Trusted Value Set Expansion Reference" that can be a service or an actual expansion
        2. An Expansion can be characterized by a date (required), a time (optional) and an identifier (optional)
    4. This initial ballot will leave inclusion of concept expressions as value set members as OUT OF SCOPE. This remains highly important but will be addressed in the following ballot.
    5. This document has the abstracted decisions from minutes. [1]
    6. Please continue to review current value set metadata document and add comments. [2]
  3. 75 min: Content work
    1. Ted leads and will review for discussion the draft ballot
      1. Ted may also continue review of abstracted "decisions" from minutes [3]
  4. Need to plan an entire meeting on constraints/approach for allowing expressions as members of a value set. May give some time to WG discussion but limited....
