RIM scope
Resource appropriateness
Decision Support Services are a critical aspect of healthcare delivery with numerous products in the space, both as stand-alone quality improvement services, as well as built-in rule-engine type deployments within EHRs. The focus of the GuidanceResponse resource is to provide a standardized mechanism for describing the results of an evaluation of decision support guidance. This functionality is described as Use Case 2" of the Clinical Quality Framework Initiative. A more in-depth discussion of this use case can be found here: Clinical Quality Framework Use Cases.
Expected implementations
In addition to general interest from the Clinical Quality and Decision Support communities, the CQF initiative has several pilot projects in various phases of completion:
Clinical Quality Framework Pilots
Content sources
- Clinical Quality Common Metadata Conceptual Model
- Clinical Decision Support Knowledge Artifact Specification
- Decision Support Service

Example Scenarios
Resource Relationships
DecisionSupportRule and DecisionSupportServiceModule
Each GuidanceResponse will reference a single DecisionSupportRule or DecisionSupportServiceModule to identify the artifact describing the guidance being returned.
Timelines
This work is being performed as part of the reconciliation of ballot comments received against the Clinical Quality Improvement Framework FHIR Implementation Guide. We are targeting a May 2016 for comment ballot and participation in the May connect-a-thon, as well as a followup STU ballot in September.
