Approve Roadmap https://aphlinformatics.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/1877147663/DRAFT_SHIELD_Community Roadmap_04.18.23_MarkUp.docx?api=v2 | Motion to approve this version Raj, Nirmala, further discussion: Early review comments from Eric - was a little unclear if purpose of this applies to just lab orders or results, or results only, not as clear as it could be - this was not discussed last call, abstain: 1, against: 0, in favor: 11 |
Discuss Steering Committee Composition | Craig Collum is no longer with Quest Diagnostics - the outreach was done as part of ACLA (they require being part of a member laboratory) Craig is interested in continuing to participate, he still has the same experience, but he is Brings up the more general aspect: what if folks retire or change jobs - for organizational membership we have the alternates, so that is covered, but how does that work for individual members? We need to make sure we have the right balance across the stakeholder groups, when this happens. Looked at current percentages: Healthcare Providers are at 37% instad of 30%; Industry at 21% insted of 25% nand we know we are still missing the Paitent Advocate - Riki reached out to the person Hung forwarded - has not heard back yet Motion to accept the SC roster as reported above - let Craig represent himself - Aaron, Nick, further discussion, abstain: 0, agasint: 0, in favor: 14 |
Review Working Group Committee list and establish SC representation | The projects are across WGs - best to have a team Added column for interested people - this can be anyone from SC as well as from the ALL SHIELD calls Must have 1 SC lead, can have many other participants, and the SC lead does NOT have to facilitate the meetings etc - but has to be able to attend to keep the SC updated Can WG provide their own web-coordinates? - Please let Riki know, if not. Have volunteers for the first 2 WGs - thank you!. Agreeing that communications is important - need SC lead for this one! Will start with these three and see how it goes. SC members please sign up by our next call, then we will send invitation to sign up to ALL SHIELD. |
