Responsible

    
      
Task

  
  

    
      
Bob Greenes

    
      
To discuss and establish an initial set of criteria 
      for service selection. (Initial informal meeting scheduled for lunchtime 
      1/27).  Reference the 
      decisions made above.   Initial list is in final 
      editing, to be distributed shortly.

  

    
      
Ken Rubin

    
      
Collect from the OMG criteria that may be used to 
      augment selection criteria.   
      Discussed, Eclipse and ExpressScripts volunteered to provide 
      candidate criteria.

  

    
      
(unassigned seeking volunteer)

    
      
Establish a position on granularity of a 
      service.

      
Still need 
  volunteer.

  

    
      
(all)

    
      
To review Ken’s paper on the OMG-HL7 relationship 
      and send comments to the list server. The process for achieving closure 
      will be discussed in the first teleconference (see below). Aim is to 
      finalize this within 3 to 4 weeks.

      
OMG drafted and adopted a joint project charter, 
      based on roles set out in the paper. This has been forwarded to HL7 Board 
      for ratification. This was forwarded to list by Ken on 
      Friday.

  

    
      
OMG Meeting Attendees

    
      
Those participants attending the OMG meeting in 
      Burlingame on 2/4 will review the long list with meeting attendees to 
      identify where OMG believes they can add value most. (Intent is to do an 
      example and walk it through the whole process)

      
List was presented. OMG members are assessing with 
      respect to individual company business cases.  OMG felt strongly that potential 
      submitters need to be identified and contacted to determine which services 
      would attract submissions.

  

    
      
Ken Rubin

    
      
Send out provisional “long list” of services on the 
      list server, together with a template/example. (by close Tue 2/1)  Done

      
 

  

    
      
All

    
      
All identified parties on each proposed service to 
      collectively produce a single paragraph definition of their item, if 
      possible also identifying the corresponding EHR function and issue on the 
      list server (by close Tue 2/8)  
      In progress. Anyone on call has any updates?

      
 

  

    
      
Darius Kemeklis

    
      
Identify industry references on components and 
      services in the makings of a reading resource library.  In progress

  

    
      
Co-Chairs

    
      
Co-chairs will work out with HL7 available 
      resources for communication and documentation, e.g. the existing web 
      site.

      
Investigating potential for OMG to provide 
      communications products.

 

 

3. Report from OMG Meeting (see also notes sent out on list):

 

·        
Joint 
charter produced

·        
Reviewed 
project plan and drafted overall combined plan.

·        
Abdul 
Malik (HL7) suggested considering this a combined project (for plan and 
teleconferences)

·        
Proposing 
an out of cycle meeting. HDTF supportive of a joint out of cycle meeting – 
recommending late March early April (before the next OMG and HL7 
meetings.)

·        
Other 
standards discussed. Interest expressed for NCPDP and X.12. Agreement was that 
the arrangement was non-exclusive (doesn’t preclude other groups doing 
technology/platform specs using HL7 output – including HL7 itself, similarly OMG 
are free to take other standards bodies CIMs where does not conflict with 
HL7)

 

4. Review criteria and approach for selecting short list

·        
Bringing 
in vendors / submitters

 

5. OMG-HL7 Relationship

See above
