Antitrust statement:
Professional Associations, such as HL7, which bring together competing entities are subject to strict scrutiny under applicable antitrust laws. HL7 recognizes that the antitrust laws were enacted to promote fairness in competition and, as such, supports laws against monopoly and restraints of trade and their enforcement. Each individual participating in HL7 meetings and conferences, regardless of venue, is responsible for knowing the contents of and adhering to the HL7 Antitrust Policy as stated in §05.01 of the Governance and Operations Manual (GOM).
Meeting Minutes
Agenda Outline | Agenda Item | Minutes | |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Announcements |
| Stan reviewed code of conduct and gave the announcements registration open CRMI and Risk Adjustment are on ballot and relevant to CQI We discussed whether to record our Friday calls in the future. Some reluctant to record if recording is publicly shared. We don't know if recordings are available forever or time limited. Do other WGs record the meetings? Some record for purpose of taking minutes, not shared with public. Need boilerplate statement on recording, such as DaVinci doing anti-trust statement. Specific topics may want to record. Yes for minutes, yes for detailed discussions. No for publicly available. Anyone should be able to ask to record or to stop recording. |
2 | New project/ proposal review | https://confluence.hl7.org/display/TPTF (comment on all Proposals and only Vote on the PSS if it includes our WG as a co-sponsor or interested party) PSS-2170 School Based Physical Fitness Testing Domain Analysis Model | Stan discussed PSS-2170 This is project proposal, not PSS, so we don't need to declare level of involvement (sponsor, co-sponsor, interested party). Added comment for CQI to Jira ticket. |

Migratory if 0.. so not breaking change Peter talked about idea of comparing??? 40443 cohort vs cohort definition are different what is the score? count = size of the cohort Not ready for vote. Measure.scoring has a binding to a value set with a code system in THO, so changing the meaning of the codes would involve UTG process not direct change to QMIG. See note in Jira about coordinating a new definition. 40420 vote Juliet/Bryn: 18-0-0 39729 Paul added a comment with suggested disposition, Bryn agreed, but too late to vote.
