- Motion- Sarah to accept as dispositioned and documented.
- Second- Craig
- 22,0,0
- Comment- 27 A-Q
- Question answered
- SEX- male female, unknown, no explanation of what to do in the guide to completing the worksheet regarding when sex is ambiguous
- With a paper form a person is arbitrarily choosing a value, but what happens with an electronic system?
- There is a gender harmonization workgroup that is working on trying to clarify this, though US Vital Records may or may not actually adopt. In VR it’s pretty cut and dry, sex at birth (male, female, undifferentiated). As opposed to gender that goes into more extensive concepts.
- Haven’t seen much on this since the San Antonio meeting
- Motion- Sarah moved to accept as dispositioned and documented.

| 35 min | Finalize NPRM comments for sending to the PAC | Craig Newman |
- PH WG NPRM comments - FINAL.docx
- Comments were solicited by PH membership and a document was drafted and was circulated for review
- Next this document will go to the PAC for inclusion in the HL7 response
- Comments received from Noam Arzt, John Loonsk, and Lori F.
- Some concern regarding ONC seeking exceptions to the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act that requires use of voluntary consensus-based standards in several areas. Those that are proposed include no public health representation and now are requiring PH to adopt these standards.
- Everyone should get a seat at the table to participate and be represented
- USCDI and its use in case reporting- with eICR we have tried to map the common clinical data set which puts us in line to adopt the USCDI.
- Represents a set of data elements and classes
- Not all data in the USCDI is appropriate to be communicated for all purposes; so need to use the data in the USCDI as appropriate to your purpose and not those that are not.
- Structured critical data and history information- not currently available in USCDI, but needed currently
- It’s possible that US Core FHIR profiles are actually what is feeding USCDI. So for our FHIR eICR we may already be aligning. Common Clinical Data Set is thought to be the same as the US Core FHIR Profiles. Will add a reference to US Core FHIR Profiles.
- Need to research how these three specifically align.
- The references to USCDI should clarify these 3 points specifically.
- There is no PH representation on USCDI Taskforce
- Appreciate the need to support more standardized and comprehensive formats from EHRs but shouldn’t replace already implemented public health reporting expectations.
- Children’s Health metrics: Referencing standards that are used to make imm data available to patients (VDT), but not the appropriate standards to synchronizing with Imm Registries. Both should be referenced appropriately.
- Should also be able to reconcile records between providers using a transitions of care, should be augmented to include immunization query./response/update communications to support recommendation 5.
- Removed comment about requiring imm certificates from IISs
- FHIR API- PH needs funding and support to adopt; should not replace of interop standards that are already in place and implemented for PH
- OpenID, OAuth- need to follow. Will be a problem if HIEs and Data networks cant support FHIR APIs; will be a problem for PH
- Standards Version Advancement Process- promote happening in parallel and maintain support for previous versions while partners catch up
- Exceptions that are proposed must not be used to justify failure to perform public health reporting.
- Unclear about how profits are calculated
- Encourage ONC to include support for reporting to PH registries
- Motion to approve- Craig
- John- Second
