Minutes for Q4

o  #1103 FHIR Resources – to be discussed in joint HCD-FHIR meeting

  • Other Standards Updates

o  ONC/FCC/FDA

§  At ISO level, there is an initiative to address issues relating to standards that are provided by the originating SDO free of charge.

  • For example, since HL7 v2.5 was balloted as an ISO standard, it is now provided for free by HL7, challenging the ISO business model of selling standards.
  • This is the same with standards from CDISC, DICOM, IHE, etc.
  • TC 215 looking at an approach to create meta-standard specifications that include normative references to these standards; providing a creative approach to getting an ISO P-member approval without going through the re-publishing activity
  • This approach will be discussed in the upcoming Berlin meetings (October 6 week) and hopefully will be in place in less than a year.

§  Final report from FDA on FDASIA; FDA strongly considering HL7 and IHE as next round of recognized standards. Trying to allocate resources to participate in IEEE 11073 and IHE.
