• Process Discussion:
  • Consider new standard process discussed on US Realm Steering Committee November 10, 2020:
    • Requests for variances from US Core are considered in US Realm Steering Committee which enters a comment on the Jira tracker (that the variance is approved by US Realm). CGP will subsequently review the tracker for consideration for whether the suggested variance should represent a change to US Core and, if so, when.
    • Potential challenge - how does US Realm know any given US Core tracker is a variance request?
    • Related trackers (from Saul Kravitz, MITRE):
      • FHIR-29680 - Organization cardinality
      • FHIR-29681 - Practitioner cardinality
