• Orlando WGM Recap:
  • Gil Alterovitz has been elected to another term as co-chair. Congratulations Gil!
  • We are forming a new subgroup led by Gil that will be focused on FHIR. In addition to CG, an invitation will be extended to the Orders and Observations group to participate. The results of this subgroup will be reported to the larger group during our weekly call.
  • CG will become primary stakeholder for the HL7 V2 Genomics Report Lite being developed by Clem McDonald.
  • We will be producing a CG WG position statement/document regarding variation representations in clinical reporting. HGVS will be an important discussion including when it is appropriate and when it is not, as well as it's proper use. A PSS will be prepared by Bob Freimuth.
  • We will re-evaluate and consolidate relevant elements from the different DAMs that this WG has produced. Gil will lead this effort.
  • The DIM will be broadened to a higher level (fewer if any attributes) so that it can be more easily harmonized with the DAM, as well as identifying sub-domain defined by specific use cases. Amnon Shabo will lead this.
  • A glossary (at minimum) will be developed in close collaboration with the DAM/DIM work so semantic harmonization can be maintained across all of our products.
• DAM/DIM discussion
  • Mollie has made a motion: "I motion Gil be added as project leader/facilitator to the 2 DAM projects. He and I have been working closely together for over a year."
  • We will get clarification for exactly which projects, and I will send the a copy or link of the PSS’s to the group.
