Vocab Team Calendar

DataPult Topics

Doug/Millie

The NIH has implemented their own HL7 v.2.5.1 IG for Over-the-Counter infectious disease test results reporting. They mainly use this for COVID OTC tests, but are expanding to Respiratory Multiplex (COVID, FLU A, FLU B). They also have implemented a FHIR IG for OTC In-Vitro Diagnostic testing Home Page - At-Home In-Vitro Test Report v1.1.0 (fhir.org).

Currently, the HL7 v2 IG lives on their website HL7v2 Implementation Guide | National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (nih.gov) .

Issue: NIH wants to put this v2 IG in a place with more longevity than their current website AND they want a non-NIH organization to maintain it. NIH wants to gain recommendations for where their IG should “live” in perpetuity and which organization should maintain it if the MARS program should be sunset.

Questions:

• Is it appropriate that APHL create space on its website for this (and maintain it) since APHL is already helping to maintain the COVID LIVD data? If not, please share reasons that we can take back to NIH.

• Is it possible that this is maintained by HL7 or the HL7 PH Workgroup? Are there examples of where an IG has been developed that a work group has taken on to maintain? - no, since HL7 WGs are all volunteer based

• Are there other “locations” that NIH should consider?

Discussion: If the program sunsets, why shoudl we need maitneance - regular ELR rules would apply.

Vocab Team Resource Dashboard

new LOINC assignments

Ruslan

After getting LOINC back from Regenstrief after submission?

Adaptive workflow has checkbox for submission workflow - once submitted mark as such - once LOINC is accepted, change to that - but we cannot associate it until it is published in the next LOINC release

Add the LOINC term to the notes on the PLT term

SOP for today

OID Requests

OID Report / Look Up

Follow up question: How to assure that OIDs are unique, if other organizations are also assigning them? - we will tackle that in 2 weeks

Confluence Use

Amanda / Riki

Update the Meeting Notes template - discuss where to put some of the links we currently have there.

• Check in on homework - Riki still has to do this : Review the document spreadsheet and see where which resource should go: https://aphlinformatics.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/915865620/APHL Sharepoint items 2021.ods?api=v2

• this shows how pages are related to each other - we may want to sketch out how we think of our team space and its pages: how they relate to each other and other project/team spaces: https://aphlinformatics.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/360513537/APHL KM Confluence Site Architecture.pdf?api=v2
