Hi all,

This is what I have for notes from today's call...

Discussion
• Artifacts involved:
○ Profile
○ Base resource
○ Value set resource(s)
○ Conformance resource
• Looking for a home for CA implementation guides
○ Perhaps have Infoway host a repository for CA implementation guides
○ Infoway is monitoring commercial offerings (e.g. Furore, Trifolia, etc.)
• Short term plan
○ Set up repository (likely Infoway GitHub) for CA FHIR profiles, Implementation Guides, etc.
○ Access would be tied to InfoCentral accounts
○ Develop gatekeeping procedures, governance, etc.
○ Benefit to tying to InfoCentral would be the ability manage participation and to notify when things are being worked on
• Andrew Liu provided a demo of IG content - showing the in-progress eRx FHIR work
• Longer term plan could be to migrate to commercial tools - but the tools may not be ready for prime time yet
• Question (Ken Sinn): Is there an intent to have two separate builds - one for published work, and one for work-in-progress? 2) How do we align the profile repository with the multiple published and in-progress FHIR versions?
○ Suggest having one continuously integrated build - clearly noting things are WIP. At such time things are ready for publication, a snapshot can be taken and published elsewhere.
○ Governance may need to be worked out later
• Next Steps:
○ Attila to publish doodle pool for timing of next working session
