Body Mass Index (BMI) Project
To return to the >> Public Health Emergency Response Group Page
Project Overview
The scope of this project is to develop a BMI implementation guide using the HL7 V2 ORU message.
The guide will contain a profile that describes the transmission of body mass index (BMI) data (Required: height, weight, gender, date of birth, and date of measurement. Optional: BMI result, additional demographics) from electronic health record systems (EHRs) to public health surveillance systems.
The scope of the implementation guide includes: • sending BMI histories including demographic information from EHRs to public health surveillance systems for individuals; • Public health surveillance systems acknowledging receipt of BMI histories to EHRs; • Public health surveillance systems reporting errors in the messaging process to EHRs;
This guide will follow the style of HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide, S&I Framework Lab Results Interface, Release 1 – US Realm, and will align with the HL7 Version 2.5.1: Implementation Guide for Immunization Messaging, Release 1.4
At this time the project is intended to be a U.S. Realm only document. As stated in the Project Need section, this project is a response to HITECH that is US specific.
This guide is a building block that is expected to allow/guide messaging of other public health data from EHRs to public health surveillance systems.
