Terminology items on the HL7 Canada agenda for Tuesday June 4: Sex and Gender, Health Care Provider Role Type Subset

Dear Health Terminologies community.

There are a couple of agenda items on the HL7 Canada community call that might be of interest to you. The call is today (Tuesday June 4 at noon: infocentral.infoway-inforoute.ca/en/news-events/event-calendar/icalrepeat.detail/2019/06/04/2769/165/hl7-canada-community-call)

HL7 International and the Gender Harmony project. This project is trying to determine all of the different ways that sex and gender are identified. The call had good international participation yesterday and included members of DICOM Working Group 6 (the workgroup that maintains the base DICOM standard) presented some of their unique gender and sex identify issues as part of this discussion.

All future discussions about the Gender Harmony project will take place in the HL7 Canada Community as this is an HL7 International project, so please subscribe to the HL7 Canada forum to stay connected. More information about the HL7 Gender Harmony project can be found here:
confluence.hl7.org/display/VOC/The+Gender+Harmony+Project

All are welcome at both the HL7 Canada community meeting and to participate in the Gender Harmony project.

Thank you.

Regards,

Andrea
