ARB Project

• A new ARB project has been approved. This project will be used to identify the process and tools required for the development of computable links for semantic interoperability that would be useful in FHIR. One of the candidates would be to develop computable links between FHIR and RIM constructs.
  • The first project meeting was held on Friday, July 17, 2015. Attendance was by members from Pharmacy WG (John Hatem), RDF group and ARB.
  • Meeting minutes were taken by Tony Julian and will be posted. That link will be added to these minutes when available.
  • The initial meeting was used to introduce the members, provide some background on the Pharmacy Resources and identify specific next steps related to evaluation of the existing mappings, identify/create a location for content that this project will produce. This meeting also explored several technical issues e.g. use of xpath, use of RDF directly, past use of CMETs and how that relates to this project.
