Jump to navigation Jump to search


This is the "official" list and is more up-to-date than the on-site guide, so please consider this your primary source for FHIR-related information. If you're aware of other FHIR-related activities happening or planned schedules change through-out the week, *please* update this list. Also, feel free to fill in more detailed agenda topics.

Note that some quarters are completely dedicated to FHIR. Others may only deal with FHIR for part of the session or briefly. Non-dedicated sessions (where known) are included in italics.

For those new to HL7, Quarters are as follows: Q0=breakfast, Q1=9-10:30, Q2=11:00-12:30, lunch=12:30-1:45, Q3=1:45-3:00, Q4=3:30-5, Q5=dinner time (5:15-7ish), Q6=after dinner until 8:30-9, Q7=late night discussions until everyone crashes

To keep this page easy to use, meetings on days that have already occurred are "commented out". (You can see them by editing or viewing history)

Most FHIR sessions are occurring as part of regular committee work, though some are FHIR-only ("FHIR Infrastructure"). You can find a list of #Work Group Abbreviations at the bottom. If you have questions, pop them on http://chat.fhir.org, the FHIR list or send an email to lmckenzie@gevityinc.com.

If you're not sure where you should go, feel free to post a question on Zulip: Where should I go?


If you're in a FHIR-I quarter, please capture your attendance here: http://bit.ly/fhiri Notes from FHIR-I Quarters


Monday Oct 1

Reminder: if you're not sure how to navigate the WGM, or where you should be, you can ask at [chat.fhir.org]
