Co-Chair Handbook Information

Co-Chair Welcome

Thanks so much for serving as an HL7 Co-Chair. We’ve created this wiki to make it easier to find items you may need. Over time we plan to add webinars to provide “on demand” instructions. We’ve included a link to the current Co-Chair Handbook in case you prefer a .pdf document.

If you have not had a chance to attend the co-chair training at a Working Group Meeting, the New Co-Chair Training slideshow may be informative.

The HL7 Bylaws and GOM contain information for governance of the organization, but also contain guidance on Work Groups, balloting, etc., especially found in the Governance and Operations Manual (GOM).

• The Bylaws is a static document and requires an administrative vote by HL7 membership to alter.
• The GOM is a dynamic document; any HL7 member can suggest a change by emailing goc@hl7.org The GOM is updated three times per year.
