Topic

UTG/THO Update


ContinuousJess and Reuben

Non-HTA managed code systems retired in continuous build of THO:  http://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/UTG/external_terminologies.html

THO changes have been implemented and is a first big step to using THO as the single source of truth.

Next step is to clean up the records and align with new template from HTA confluence pages. 

TSMG has referred a question to TSC around the OID request process, awaiting Rob M's return to act as liaison to TSC.

AJCC TNM

  • Page approved: AJCC TNM Staging System (TNM)
  • Discuss best way to represent this system in THO
    • The coded concepts are not context free (e.g. code "T2" has different definitions depending upon which cancer you are talking about)
    • Ted Klein has history discussing this system and believes strongly it is not a code system
  • HTA agreed that AJCC TNM has been show to be in production use in many countries and standards (See here for a list within the US ISA https://www.healthit.gov/isa/uscdi-data/cancer-staging-ajcc-tnm, which includes both HL7 and IHE standards).
  • HTA recommends that Vocab collaborate with implementers (and ideally AJCC) to create a "Using AJCC TNM on FHIR" page for inclusion in THO (as the existing pages are planned to be moved there from FHIR)
  • The HTA still contends that there is a separate cancer staging system created by UICC TNM that may also require representation in HL7 products

Topic

Updated CS Identifier process guidance


Continued from previousCarol

We are almost through the core principles. Having issues scheduling a call before holiday break. Will look into January for next call.

The draft is located here: Validating and Requesting Identifiers for External Code Systems and Identifier Systems

HTA members and observers are asked to review the drafted text, directly edit where changes are needed and use the comment functionality to ask additional questions. We will review again (and hopefully approve on the next HTA call, which will be at the WGM).
