IHE PCC Planning Committee Advances Profile Proposals

The IHE PCC Planning Committee met this week to discuss upcoming profile proposals for the 2013-2014 profile development cycle.  Many attendees to this meeting were virtual given travel challenges raised by Hurricane Sandy.  Flights throughout the Northeast were cancelled, making it impossible for many to attend in person.

We agreed to move forward 4 proposals and one project to the Technical Committee in December.

Order and Referral Matching

This proposal suggests defining content that would appear in documents and in an XDS Registry to support matching of documents back to the original order or referral identifier.

Patient Focused/Facing Care Plan Workflow Definition

This proposal suggests defining a workflow profile that would enable development and refinement of care plans.

Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Workflow Definition

This proposal suggests defining a workflow profile to support early hearing screening, detection and intervention workflows.

Diagnostic Study Request Workflow Definition

This proposal suggests defining a workflow profile to support completion of requests for diagnostic studies.

Finally, the big project is the C-CDA Harmonization Effort, to include harmonization of the Immunization Content profile.

We also spent a bit of time responding to public comments on the Tumor Board Workflow Profile, which we expect to have published for Trial Implementation in time for the European Connectathon being held in mid-April in Instanbul, Turkey.

Thanks to all who proposed profiles for this season.  I look forward to discussing these proposals and projects in the technical committee meeting in December.
