How to Participate
Anyone may join this group simply by participating in the work, which is conducted mainly on the public HL7 and W3C mailing lists listed below and on a weekly teleconference. You are encouraged to become an HL7 member, but not required unless you wish to take a leadership role in an HL7 group, such as becoming a co-chair. You are also encouraged to have your organization become a W3C member, but not required. See benefits of W3C membership.

- Reviews of four FHIR ontology approaches:
Next Steps

Use Cases
Champions: Guoqian Jiang, others? COI Use cases on W3C wiki
- ACTION: Guoqian to figure out whether he can share URI conventions for ICD-11 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2014/11/25-hcls-minutes.html#action07]
- Discussion
Goals of use cases:
- Drive and unify diverse efforts, e.g., FHIR ontology
Kinds of use cases desired:
- Simple enough for use in slide presentations
- Realistic enough to be convincing
Use case ideas:
- Migration of CCDA to FHIR (EricP)
- Utility on FHIR RDF that would motivate mapping of FHIR XML to FHIR RDF (EricP)
Next Steps
- EricP will present C-CDA example on Dec 23.
- Waiting for Guoqian for broader discussion of use cases.
