IHE FormatCode Vocabulary Implementation Guide Updated

IT Infrastructure Technical Committee Announcement: CP-ITI-1297
The HL7 Gender Harmony Project has developed a logical model to include information in electronic health records for supporting the care of gender and sex-diverse patients. See hl7.org/xprod/ig/uv/gender-harmony/. This model includes requirements and examples for encoding sex and gender in HL7 v2.9.1, FHIR R5, and CDA. FHIR introduced the following extensions - see hl7.org/fhir/R5/patient.html#gender.
IHE IT Infrastructure is considering adoption of the HL7 information model. While the inclusion of Gender Harmony elements is not mandated, CP-ITI-1297 aims to introduce a conditional requirement, stipulating that if concepts related to sex and gender are included, they must adhere to the methods defined by the Gender Harmony Project. The impacted IHE Profiles are: PDQ, PAM, XCA, XDS, PIX, XPID, PCF, PDQm, PIXm, and PMIR.
Note: The HL7 Gender Harmony Project did not address v3, therefore we cannot address PIXv3, PDQv3, or XCPD. The ITI Technical Committee has acknowledged the importance of incorporating sex and gender information in XCPD for enhanced cross-community patient discovery. However, due to the absence of provisions within the base standard, no immediate action is being taken. Public comment is sought on this approach.
CP-ITI-1297 is currently under development to address this and we welcome participation in the development of the CP over the next few months. See: docs.google.com/document/d/1cSB7nPur0zEqptzYJsI5G-71exlnvFa8/edit?usp=drive_link&ouid=109672888359198923934&rtpof=true&sd=true.
Should you have any questions, please reach out to David Kwan. Thank you.
Best regards,
Helen
