Meeting Notes
As individuals we should all send in comments but as a sub work group we should all send in a collective opinion on Meaningful Use 2 be sure the group is heard Could be helpful to look at data elements being commented on so they can be compared to the data elements the group is discussing – quality metrics specifically Contract team cannot participate in comments back to the federal government Kris is going to take this suggestion and determine how the logistics would work IMPACT project has 16 different provider organizations representing the continuum of care, looking at 300 or more data elements to validate their necessity Pilot between 30 and 60 transitions containing the data sets that have been discussed in this SWG; feedback on ability to capture data and how, when received, the data does or does not meet their needs Will have a more detailed list of these data elements by type so they can be piloted in pieces as opposed to all at one time Can hopefully extrapolate from the Transitions of Care work Is there a need for any additional guidance to support the pilots? Going to be putting together some presentation that discusses lessons learned and best practices to modify work flows; hoping to have this ready by the end of the day today C-CDA is checked through the tools to make sure all the templates are correctly identified and implemented in the document; specific parameters of a document would have to be loaded into the tool, which is somewhat dependent on the HL7 C-CDA guide HL7 is August/September - add “Develop Testing Tools” as a goal for that part of the timeline Anyone who hasn’t submitted homework can do so today; going to roll up the information and send it to RTI later this week Will want to make more comments to RTI as we go along; function/cognition/wound is only a precursor; add additional CARE comments by July timeframe Maximize chance of having a standard used for Stage 3, need to shoot for fall balloting Fall balloting usually occurs during August (materials have to be in late July)– policy committee said they are going to hand off their recommendations late in this year and will be working through 2013 and 2014 (for Stage 3), because of this may not be absolutely necessary to have it by fall Next week will continue working on this timeline and have a discussion about simplifying the Use Case around Home Health Agencies
