Dear DI community,

I just wanted to make you aware of the Gender Harmony notes provided courtesy of Marcy Antonio that are now posed on the HL7 International forum. Please do take a look as the majority of the discussion focused on DI/DICOM uses cases. Marcy's notes can be found here:
infocentral.infoway-inforoute.ca/en/forum/221-health-level-seven-international-hl7/2914-gender-harmony-july-29-meeting-notes-hl7-international#5188

There was an off-line meeting of a few members of HL7 Canada this week as well, and the notes/recommendations from that call are also posted to the HL7 Community forum here: infocentral.infoway-inforoute.ca/en/forum/221-health-level-seven-international-hl7/2915-hl7-canada-gender-harmony-follow-up-off-line-discussion#5189


If you have any questions about this at all, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

If would be great if someone from the DI community could attend the HL7 International calls, as DICOM is making some great contributions to the project and it would be great to ensure that the needs of the Cdn DI/DICOM community are reflected.

The HL7 International confluence page with meeting information, scope definition and discussion documents can be found here:

Thank you.

Regards,

Andrea
