• Mike updated the group on the progress of the Due Diligence Review: currently in progress on comparing Immunization resource as profiled in CA Baseline and International Patient Summary
• Matt Herbert walked the group through his progress on creating a Pitch Deck for the CA Baseline Profiles, which can be leveraged for surfacing the CA Baseline Profiles to senior stakeholders in the New Year in an effort to secure a group to provide governance of the CA Baseline Profiles
• Framing the ‘ask’ being put toward senior stakeholders
• Emphasis on articulating the desired sustaining / operating model that a governing organization should be supporting for the CA Baseline
• Interoperability is not a technical problem; it’s more so a governance problem
• Solution being put forward is the CA Baseline, and the ask is for governance of it
• Will be good to leverage real-world stories of digital health investments at a national level; e.g. Netherlands’ very robust digital health governance allowed for cross-system COVID data sharing in a very short amount of time
• One way to frame the solution in combination with the ask: CA Baseline = a conformance testable Spec that will go into procurement processes for digital health solutions in Canada
• Will continue to build content for the deck and discuss with Governance stream for input

Hi all!

Please see below for the agenda for the Canadian FHIR Baseline Profiles - Governance Stream Meeting, occurring on Friday November 27th, 2-3pm EST.

1. Update on the progress of the Due Diligence Review underway in the Profiles Review Stream (in-progress comparing CA Baseline Profile for Immunization to International Patient Summary's Immunization Profile)

2. Work efforts on assembling a 'pitch deck' for the new year; what materials do we already have, what do we need that we don't have?

Thank you!
