Outdated Content Warning

The Co-Chair Handbook is currently being updated. Information on this page should be considered outdated until further notice.

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.
Suggestions for improvements/corrections to this document should be sent to the Associate Executive Director of HL7 (Karenvan@hl7.org) and the Co-chairs of the Process Improvement WG, or enter your suggestions at PIC:COCHAIRS using the template provided or email the PIC List Service (pic@lists.hl7.org)

Read Me

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.
  • For the most current organization chart with explanation of Steering Divisions (SD), WGs, and Board appointed committees please refer to the Organization and Process documentation which can be found in the Organization and Process presentation
  • See the Co-chair Utility Page/Procedures for more useful links
