Return to: Patient Care
This is a new Health Concern Project initiated October 2013.
This wiki page contains latest contents for the Health Concern Project post September 2013 WGM at Cambridge.
Contents
Introduction
Care Plan has been balloted in 2007 as DSTU. However, a number of ballot issues were not resolved satisfactorily and consequently the balloted contents did not reach DSTU status.
The project plan initiated in 2011 is to first develop a Domain Analysis Model (DAM) for the Care Plan, and then decide on follow on activities. The HDF 1.5 (HL7 development framework) approach will be followed. HL7 PC will work together with various groups including HL7 Work Groups (e.g. EHR, Structured documents), IHE, NEHTA, Canada Health Infoway, and others.

Definition
A Health Concern is any health related issue which is identified by a user of an EHRS as needing tracking. The concept of a Health Concern is agnostic to the specific content or who identified the need to track it. It is principally concerned with the tracking and maintenance of the expressed content. In all cases there will need to be an Observation (a Condition) which names the Health Concern. Condition can be diagnosis, signs, symptoms, abnormal diagnostic study, barrier to care, propensity to adverse reaction (aka "allergy"), or patient preference. This is based on a long-standing convention, and has been broadened to accompany the range of Health Concerns. Additional types of Health Concerns are quite possible, if they differ substantially from some existing type.
