À propos de nous

What is the HL7 Canada Community?

The HL7 Canada Community is a place to share and learn about the use of HL7 related pan-Canadian health information standards. HL7 Canada promotes and supports the domestic and international harmonization of HL7 standards to enable the sharing of health information in Canada. HL7 Canada also ensures that consensus positions, advice and decisions are reached with appropriate consultation and in an open, transparent, and accountable manner without a preponderance of influence by any one stakeholder group.

This community is where requests to make changes to any of the pan-Canadian messages occur and where implementers come for OID requests in Canada or find Canadian OIDs in the HL7 OID Registry.

Canada is proud to have a thriving HL7 Canada Constituency and actively participates in HL7 Ballots.

To become a member of this community select Join Group in the Group Menu.

Christina Pinsonneault a lancé une nouvelle discussion dans le groupe HL7 Canada

TELUS Health would like these new codes to be added for "Applied Behavior Analyst", "Psychoeducator" and "Psychoanalyst" in the HealthcareProviderRoleType value set, as these roles are recognized roles in healthcare claims today. TELUS currently uses the "HealthcareProviderRoleType" value set in our HL7v3 and FHIR claim messages. Infoway has added codes in the past at our request. Kindly add a new code with a value of "ABA" with a display value of "Applied Behavior Analyst" and "Analyste du comportement" as the french display name. With the description of "A behavior analyst is licensed professional who assesses and treats behavior through the design, implementation, and evaluation of interventions based on behavior principles. They work to produce meaningful improvements in skills and behaviors by observing, measuring, and analyzing behavior, with the goal of improving communication, learning, self-care, and other skills." If you would like more information on this role, here is a reference to an associate in Ontario that recognizes the Applied Behavior Analyst role, https://cpbao.ca/ Kindly add a new code with a value of "PSYCHEDU" with a display value of "Psychoeducator" and "Psychoéducateur" as the french display name. With the description of "A psychoeducator is a professional who intervenes with individuals experiencing psychosocial adjustment difficulties by evaluating their adaptation and creating interventions to promote their autonomy and resolve conflicts. They use their expertise to provide assessment, counseling, and preventive care, considering the individual's strengths, limitations, and vulnerabilities in their daily life environments like schools, healthcare centers, and community organizations." If you would like more information on this role, here is a reference to an associate in Quebec that recognizes the Psychoeducator role, https://ordrepsed.qc.ca/ Kindly add a new code with a value of "PSYCHANA" with a display value of "Psychoanalyst" and "Psychoanalyste" as the french display name. With the description of "A psychoanalyst is a clinician who has completed extensive training in psychoanalysis in addition to a background in another field like psychiatry, psychology, or social work. Psychoanalysis is not short-term treatment but its results are often lasting with positive effects that are usually realized in the years following the completion of treatment." If you would like more information on this role, here is a reference to an associate in Canada that recognizes the Psychoanalyst role, https://www.en.psychoanalysis.ca/

Hello everyone: ... This package addresses an incorrect link to the first full ballot of FHIR Release 6, and corrects a problem with accessing the ballot comment sheets. Also I had a typo in my response. Ballot Spreadsheets are due Comments on of the ballot items are due for consolidation by the HL7 Canada Council on or before Wednesday, Jan 14th, 2026.

Ron Parker a lancé une nouvelle discussion dans le groupe HL7 Canada

Hello HL7 Canada Community. ... This package addresses an incorrect link to the first full ballot of FHIR Release 6, and corrects a problem with accessing the ballot comment sheets. The compressed / ZIP folder contains an Excel spreadsheet that provides an index to all of the content for this ballot, as well as the spreadsheets you can use to provide your ballot comments. Most of the ballot content is from the FHIR website, however there is other downloaded content that has been extracted from their individual ZIP files and then consolidated here in this package for your convenience. At the very top of the Excel index is a link to the description of all of the items in the ballot package. Simply download the Ballot Package ZIP file, create a folder for the extracted files, and then extract all to that folder. Then use the hyperlinks in the Excel ballot index file to access folders with ballot items content and related comment spreadsheets. Each comment spreadsheet has an extensive explanation of how to record your comments. Comments on of the ballot items are due for consolidation by the HL7 Canada Council on or before Wednesday, Jan 14th, 2026. Once you have completed a ballot comment spreadsheet, use the | Contact US | link at the top of any InfoCentral page to submit the your comment spreadsheets. Thanks very much. If you have any questions about the ballot or the comment submission process contact [email protected] Ron G. Parker, HL7 Canada Chair

Anil Patel a répondu au cours d'une discussion dans le groupe HL7 Canada

Yes, you are correct. Thanks for flagging this, Elliot. I agree the BALLOTED SPECIFICATION URL should point to the root ... rather than the specific ballot-intro.html page. As you noted, the current value prevents submitters from entering the correct page URL when logging issues on the Ballot tab, which will directly impact issue submission. We should correct this in the ballot package as soon as possible to avoid blocking feedback during the ballot window. Thanks again for catching. Best, Anil
