Issue

In HL7 there are a lot of topics in other domains that might be more suited in Care Provision. For example not showing for an appointment is in the administrative domain, while the reason for not showing could be a health concern. Every action in an ambulance is considered an encounter, when the patients arrive in the hospital the same actions belong to the Care Provision domain.

General

Recommended Action Items

Patient Care is advised to continue its long relationship with the different HL7 WG, in particular under the steering division. PC tries to be involved in other groups work, and sponsor where possible. With O&O there is a decade of ongoing cooperation and discussion and recently this has started with PA as well. PC is open to further suggestions to take responsibility for other models, provided resources to do the work are available.
