Notes & Minutes

Administration 

Discussion

Metrics group
  • Need more participation on that group - progress is stalling
Cross-mapping group
  • Ron and Rich have started going through the ENHAC requirements and SAC requirements - more work needed
    • Progress is being made, but slowly 
    • Big time hit from the FICAM requirements alignment work going on in IAWG - urgent deadlines
  • Some discussion last time was joining the IAWG mapping work - however there are significant differences, limiting the upside

Potential outreach for research:

  • Debbi Bucchi - at ONC might have some interest (HHS.gov ) - what part of HHS/ONC might have an interest in this topic?
    • Andrew to arrange a call with Debbie/Joni to discuss participation in HIAWG
  • Tom Sullivan (IDESG Health) - chatted with Pete previously - was interested 
  • Need to re-surface the 'burning need' - Terry to send to Andrew
Braithwaite - HIMSS Task force on Identity Management
  • The HIMSS board launched a task force
    • One meeting held- planning
    • Patient identity information is not being handled well in Healthcare - much variability and no interoperability or ability cross-match
    • Concept is to leverage HIMSS membership to gain standardization in patient identification and attribute management to enable appropriate linking-matching for record matching
    • The starting point is standardization of attribute data
    • The charter is available from Bill Braithwaite on request
  • Contact Mike Kroll mkroll@himss.org to join the list
  • Offer was made to coordinate between groups as appropriate
FICAM TFS updates
  • This should have impacts on any organization needing to interact with Federal Government
    • The ONC trust framework does not align perfectly with FICAM or FBCA - this gap is a general concern which will cause non-interoperable solutions
    • This may not be resolvable
  • Should HIAWG try to identify the impact that non-interoperable solutions will cause? Yes, if possible - and need to consider who would consume the message.
