As mentioned at the meeting, we are looking for feedback on a draft scope statement for the new HL7 Anatomical Inventories and Person Characteristics Project.
Here is what was posted in the meeting:
“Develop a FHIR profile(s) to address the exchange of common, clinically relevant and infrequently changing person characteristics that could be represented in a standardized manner. This may include anatomical inventory, blood type and antigens, eye colorcolour, sex parameters, gestational age at birth, etc. This project will clarify the boundaries between concepts that should be communicated as person characteristics versus those that should be communicated as conditions (e.g., genetic disorders). This project will require input from many stakeholders and affected parties, and hands-on effort from other HL7 working groups. The primary deliverable of this work be FHIR profile(s) to support person-centred care, and information models (where required), codes, concepts, value sets and other supporting artefacts. This work will use existing standards, classifications and terminology standards where they exist.”
Please edit and comment as needed.
It was also suggested that we have a lay version of the scope statement to make this more user friendly for those who aren't standards experts. We would love to have some language to get this started as well.
Improving the quality of patient care through the effective sharing of clinical information among health care organizations, clinicians and their patients.
