Problem and Target Outcome

Problem:

  • EHRs and other data systems are not yet capable of providing cancer patient data that conforms to the mCODE standard. 

Target Outcome:

  • Patient mCODE data is available to any workflow in standard, HL7 FHIR resources.


mCODE Extraction Details

ActorAny workflow where mCODE data is required for execution.
Description

A workflow requires access to a patient's data described by mCODE.

Trigger

Any CodeX or mCODE use case trigger.

Preconditions

Required patient data exists in a structured computable format in an EHR or other health IT application.

Postconditions

A set of FHIR resources populated with data as defined in the mCODE standard is available for any workflow.

Extensions

N/A

Assumptions

See precondition.

ScopeRetrieval of patient data as defined by mCODE. 
Notes

The mCODE Extraction use case defines a software engineering framework and reference implementation for EHR or health IT developers to use as a basis for developing server specific mCODE extraction. A subset of mCODE elements is targeted for the first phase: Cancer Disease Status, Treatment Plan Change, general patient demographics and clinical trials data. 



Pilot Plan

Piloting and implementation of the extractor utility is done as part of a use case that utilizes mCODE, such as the EHR Endpoints for Cancer Clinical Trials use case. As the extractor is utilized, issues can be logged via the extractor's GitHub page
