Supporting Tactics

Tactic	Impact
LIDR/UDI Vendor Authoring Tool	Make it easy for vendors to assign codes quickly and well.
LIDR Implementation Help Portal	Education resources for labs and hospitals implementing code mappings. Training for harmonization, workflow integration and data exchange. Includes auto-population tools for labs, reference implementation for testing messages and message validators. HL7 v2 and FHIR support.
Tools for Automated lab catalog and data dictionary maintenance	Ideally laboratories/vendors would not need to manually look up necessary LIDR or semantic mappings--searching within the LIS via API calls to necessary repositories would ease burden
