| 40 min. | Status update on VRDR IG | AbdulMalik Shakir | AMS provided an overview of current status and planned next steps for the Vital Records Death Reporting FHIR IG VRDR FHIR IG - Project Status.pptx - primary scope of the IG is to exchange mortality data from state PHAs to NCHS
- the hope is that upstream data sources (e.g., hospitals, medical examiners) can also use FHIR profiles to report to PHAs
- IG is now an approved / published STU 1
- STU 1.1 dot release publication approved, anticipated to be finalized in June
- Will ballot STU2 in Sept. 2021 (NIB deadline July 4)
- Provide enforcement support for required Inter-Jurisdictional Exchange (IJE) elements
- Enhancement of standardized codes from National Vital Statistics System (NVSS) to jurisdictions
- Support for IJE of death certificates
- Enhanced support for source system data exchange
- Use profile definitions from Vital Records Common Profile Library (STU 1.1 contributed profiles)
- IG is US Realm
- Data flow is FHIR messaging (not RESTful queries) – no plans to change that approach at this time
- Plan to ballot STU3 or Normative in 2022
- Debating whether to include workflow in companion messaging spec or IG itself
