FDA process for offcially participating in the SHIELD community

Process for selecting FAD representation on community efforts:

• The proposed representative will make a presentation about th community to the Collaborative Community Steerring Committee and if they approve then a similar presentation will be given to FDA leadership

  • Keith is scheduled for his presentation on June 22

  • The SC is looking for sustainable projects, so need to be able to point to those elements of SHIELD that are long-term commitments and how what impacts participation by FDA would have on its success/outcome

• Once approved SHIELD will be recognized as an offical FDA Collaborative Community with a mention on their website
  Questions:

Question:

Does FDA Collaborative community come with suport - particularly for web presence, collab facilitation like zoom etc?

FDA Collabortive Community presentation from June last year for background

Feedback from FDA, specifically Collaborative Community leadership in CDRH on our Charter

1. They recommended that the percentages of various groups be more “fungible”… In that what happens if you are not able get the exact percent representation from particular groups? So anticipate that somehow by saying that is a goal, and that leadership can approve deviations from those numbers, or have the documents say that they are guidelines, not absolute.

   1. Suggested change since current SC numbers are close, but not exact – so probably change: “according to” to “approximately”:

Motion to make this adjustment -Hung, Aaron - no further discussion, against: 0, abstain: 0, in favor: 12

This Change was applied after the call today.

1. For the SHIELD projects, they want to see some goals that are long-term sustaining projects. Not projects that look like they will wrap up in 1-2 years… The question being is this a temporary type group that we might support in the short term more as an focus group, or is this a longer term group that is worth FDA planning to be in partnership with for a long time.

Feedback from ONC on Roadmap (FINAL VERSION)

NOT DISCUSSED:

Was mentioned on May 30 call - here are the comments:

1. The roadmap mission section describes a broad vision of lab interoperability. However, the roadmap proposed solution is limited to the FDA use cases around In-vitro diagnostics (IVD) data, specifically populating the IVD data hub.  ONC suggests clearly describing the roadmap scope so the proposed solutions can be discussed within that context.

2. The roadmap identifies training and education needs around using LOINC as a barrier to interoperability. ONC suggests clarifying how the roadmap addresses this barrier. ONC recognizes that terminologies require training and education, and replacing LOINC with another standard will not address the barrier.

3.  There are several solutions proposed, including repositories and tools, which need to be further evaluated before ONC could fully support the roadmap.  ONC suggests the roadmap be updated to include details around feasibility, scalability and how the proposed changes can be integrated into the current laboratory ecosystem (e.g., regulation and industry).

- any volunteers to draft a response / suggested updates in the roadmap?
