Project Review
Project Proposals
- US Public Health Profiles Library:
Jira server Jira serverId 9b965702-34a7-3433-bf10-7f66fd69238c key PSS-1805 - Pharmacy needs more information before deciding if they should be involved in this project - still waiting for a response to comment
Project Scope Statements
Discussion of MedicationKnowledge and possible issues for CDS
- proposed changes for MedicationKnowledge
- ongoing discussion/concern about the scope of MedKnowledge and MedicinalProductDefinition
- Jean completed an analysis
- there are some attributes in MedKnowledge that are not part of the definition, but there are attributes that overlap
- cost isn't definitional
- guidelines may not be definitional
- proposal was to pull out content that are definitional and are in MedicinalProductDefinition
- improve the link to the definition
- Knowledge would provide jurisdictional specific information about the drug
- Is the modelling different in the definition
- in many cases, it is structured differently because there is more information in the definition - more detail
- in almost all cases, MedicationKnowledge is a subset of the information that is in MedicinalProductDefinition
- do we need to put guidance in our resource about
- will have to explain as part of scope where there may be duplicate information
- Is there ever a circumstance where you would have a code (e.g. hospital specific code) but also need to reference MedicinalProductDefinition
- need to discuss this
- Comments from Bryn
- need to know ingredients and relative strengths of ingredients
- in MedicationKnowledge - was straight forward and clear
- in MedicinalProductDefinition - can't answer the same questions
- can see ingredients, but don't know the relative strengths
- have to look inside the ingredients to find strengths
- can answer the question, but need to consider that ingredient is specific to a product
- there are some ballot comments - may be changes that make this harder to determine
- can see ingredients, but don't know the relative strengths
- problem with the proposal - what was easy before, is now harder to find
- at least one level of indirection
- names are not the same
- 3 level of hierarchy to look for ingredients and then dig information out
- disservice to those that have been well served by the existing MedicationKnowledge
- Options
- could include a backbone of the definitional items
- reference to definition and/or attributes that were previously included
- there could be push back - could just contain the definitional items - need to justify this
- maybe clearly defining the scope would be a better option - scope and boundaries
- could include a backbone of the definitional items
- Next steps
- reach out to Francois about use by Catalog Project - Jean to reach out
- take to FMG and describe the problem
- hearing from implementers that the approach adds complexity
- can we include definitional information?
- need to push back to BR&R on the level of complexity - Bryn to submit trackers
- Is there another project that is using MedKnowledge?
- Input - have a proposed solution - Jean to create a new build
- duplication of definitional information - apply to a local build - Jean to apply
- Rxnorm is a good use case! look at international models that are not regulatory
- reach out to Patrick Werner - project in Chile - Melva to reach out on Zulip

LHS Care Plan DAM
- LHS Care Plan DAM -
- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1K-gX46ITGFtpdS0pyckCBhVYLl2vwE8Gr2IYCjywFLc/edit?ts=603ebb04#heading=h.xt7xn1v4xj36
- The LHS team requests your contribution on scenarios relevant to your domain of interest on defining dietitian and pharmacy care team member information access to patient's care plan and related information.
- Update and action items from HL7 Learning Health Systems (LHS) patient centered 4-27-21 care team call about Care Plan Domain Analysis Model (DAM) – Consent Roles
- Here is the link to the use case and scenario google doc:
- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1K-gX46ITGFtpdS0pyckCBhVYLl2vwE8Gr2IYCjywFLc/edit?ts=603ebb04#heading=h.xt7xn1v4xj36
- ACTION ITEM: Identify the role of pharmacist and pharmacy staff (e.g., technician and administrative) for role-based access to clinical data.
- What are their roles as part of the care team?
- Which pharmacy actors will require a patient consent for clinical information or subset of that data for direct query into a system outside the pharmacy’s system if the pharmacist or pharmacy staff does not have consent access to that outside EHR system?
- Scope: Scenarios should focus on highly specific and concise use cases that can quickly highlight whether a gap currently exists in the relevant DAMs. The collection of scenarios should provide a clear understanding of the modeling requirements for each respective DAM in order to support the scope of purpose of patient-centric, cross-functional, cross-disciplinary, and cross-organizational care teams.
- Using the MCC Care Plan use case as a model, identify the consent roles for pharmacists and pharmacy staff.
- Betsy Johnson is a 65-year-old retired teacher with multiple chronic conditions (MCCs), which include CKD, type 2 diabetes, congestive heart failure, chronic pain, and clinical depression.
- A number of branching scenarios covering different aspects of information (e.g., care plan contents) privacy, confidentiality and security control requirements will be defined in this document. These branching scenarios will inform the refinement of the published Patient Centered Care Team logical model attributes and terminology value sets:
- ACTION ITEM: LHS ask is for Pharmacy WG to create scenario 5 – Pharmacy simple use case for the consent roles of the pharmacists and pharmacy staff.
- Example Scenario 3 - Referral to podiatrist
- Betsy presents at her PCP clinic for routine health checks by her regular primary care physician. Upon examination of Betsy’s feet, her PCP discovered her both feet sensation, temperature peripheral perfusion is reduced around the lateral fifth to third metatarsal head. The dorsalis pedis pulse is reduced in size on both feet. Skin integrity of both feet remains intact. Patient agrees to a referral to see a podiatrist, but requests that her anxiety/clinical depression information be masked from viewing by the podiatrist.
- NOTES FROM 4-27-21 Call Scenario 5 - Pharmacy (simple use case for CDK patient why the pharmacist will need clinical information from another system)
- Clinical roles
- Patient prescribed a new medication that has renal function implications
- Pharmacists need renal information from another system
- Financial/administrative roles
- Referrals from payers
- ACTION ITEM: Have use case added to google document by May 11 LHS call
- - asked Shelly to create a draft of the scenario and share to the pharmacy List
- Need to draft the role of the pharmacist and pharmacy staff
- - draft scenario
Betsy Johnson is a 65-year-old retired teacher with multiple chronic conditions (MCCs), which include CKD, type 2 diabetes, congestive heart failure, chronic pain, and clinical depression.
Betsy’s PCP notices that her clinical depression is not under control. Betsy completes a genomic sequencing and then she is referred to a pharmacist for a pharmacogenomic recommendations to assure the right antidepressant is identified based on Betsy’s genomic tests. Betsy consents for the lab to send the results of the genomic test to the pharmacist and for the PCP to refer her data to the pharmacist to review antidepressant medication, The pharmacist will make a recommendation for antidepressant therapy based on Betsy’s genomic makeup and to review the other medications Betsy is taking for potential medication therapy problems or drug/disease interactions.
- use case relative to consent
- not discussed on last LHS call
- note that the focus on the pharmacist, not the pharmacy
- all pharmacists on a team would need to have the same access (not multiple pharmacist roles)
- minor wordsmithing
- Shelly will be post to their google doc. John and Shelly will attend call
- - no updates
- - as far as are aware, no further information is needed unless they reach out to us
- - remove from agenda - they will reach out.
Radiation Therapy Discussion
- Patient Care would like Pharmacy to join one of our FHIR conference calls (Thursdays at 5pm Eastern) to revive our prior discussions about radiation therapy. We’re pushing to get Procedure normative and really need to start making some decisions about whether this needs a new resource, changes to Procedure/ServiceRequest, or Medication/MedRequest/MedAdmin.
- Can you let me know a date when Pharmacy can join us for this discussion?
