Charter
There are at least two standard specifications for ambulatory laboratory reporting, neither of which are adopted universally across industry. The cost and time to initiate new electronic laboratory results interfaces hampers broad adoption of such interfaces. The field by field details of HL7 v2 implementation guides used by clinical labs and EHRs vary, creating a need for mapping or configuration per interface, and the prevalence of core subsets of LOINC codes for common tests and analytes also varies, causing downstream issues in decision support and quality reporting.

Purpose and Goals

 * Meaningful Use Alignment** : Incorporate lab results into EHR as structured data. Supports objectives for Decision Support, Quality Reporting, Transitions in Care, and Electronic copies of Clinical Summaries and Discharge Instructions.

Scope

 * Address the challenge of lab reporting to ambulatory primary care providers. This will be driven primarily by the needs of internal medicine, family practice and pediatrics, but may also be leveraged by other providers and settings.
 * Optionally: enable pilots that demonstrate electronic results delivery through the agreed-upon standard, including linkages with directories and transport

Success Metrics

 * ~ Outcome Metrics || # Number of Providers using Lab Results Interface Initiative Outputs
 * 1) Number of Labs using Lab Results Interface Initiative Outputs
 * 2) Number of Lab Results Reporting transactions using Lab Results Interface Initiative Outputs
 * 3) Number of vendors (EHRs, PHRs, LIS Vendors, HIEs) using Lab Results Interface Initiative Outputs
 * 4) Time Reduction to Create a New Lab Interface
 * 5) Cost Reduction to Create a New Lab Interface
 * 6) Meaningful Use Alignment ||
 * ~ Process Metrics || # Number of participants / organizations actively engaged in developing Lab Interface Initiative outputs, e.g.,
 * 1) Wiki user counts
 * 2) Lines of code counts
 * 3) Count of artifact downloads
 * 4) Number of wiki edits, etc. ||
