Meeting Notes

 * John Donnelly started meeting by introducing announcements
 * DES/CEDD Integration - An output of this effort is a single CEDD object mod spreadsheet that is the successor for the DES work products
 * CEDD Name Change- Currently under consideration by ONC leadership
 * The rationale is to be more inclusive to other initiatives including PD, LRI from beyond a "clinical" standpoint
 * One potential name change would be Healthcare Element Data Dictionary (HEDD)
 * John presented the S&I CEDD Process Flow
 * Diagram has been revised based of WG members feedback and honed to reflect a stronger reflection of the flow and use of the S&I CEDD
 * CEDD is a tool that use case project teams can use at the outset to support their efforts and send recommendations to the S&I CEDD WG
 * The 4th step will be a formal gap analysis and will be supporting the use case requirements
 * A question was raised in regards to a collaboration with USHIK and a potential next step was to reach out to USHIK
 * At this time our WG is awaiting guidance from ONC Leadership on how to proceed
 * A challenge is to incorporate that the CEDD/DES work and link up with the concept of USHIK as a prototype for how to best assemble a data repository
 * John presented the S&I CEDD Recommendation Process Flow
 * The process starts with a recommendation form from an initiative and review by S&I CEDD WG
 * Three main decisions - Rejected, No, Yes
 * Rejected - A rationale is delivered on the rejection to the initiative. The initiative can incorporate additional information and appeal
 * Yes - The CEDD will be updated and revised accordingly
 * No - The request is returned the initiative for further clarification
 * The underlying theme of the process is maximize re-use and update existing CEDD content according to semantics or as needed
 * Meredith presented recommended Improvements to the S&I CEDD
 * The concept of "Direct Trust" was raised and how certificate exchange and user exchange issues could be included in the S&I CEDD
 * Meredith then presented the S&I CEDD WG Wikipage
 * Currently the S&I CEDD has data objects and elements from ToC and in the future will include Provider Directory and Query Health
 * S&I CEDD Overview Page - great introductory resource on S&I CEDD
 * S&I Framework CEDD - this page houses the document version of the S&I CEDD,
 * The S&I CEDD Workbook goes beyond the CEDD and includes additional technical specs and information
 * Facilitates re-use of existing standards
 * S&I CEDD One-Pager - concise resource that provides background on CEDD
 * Recommendation form - used to capture additions and modifications to the S&I CEDD WG
 * A S&I CEDD feedback form has been created to capture and consolidate any suggestions, commments or proposed revisions from WG members
 * Please use this form to communicate comments to the S&I CEDD WG
 * The comment was made on the relationship between DES & CEDD and the WG will strive to improve communications
 * A clarification is that the S&I CEDD WG will not be creating any new content - it will depend on initiatives to generate revisions/edits
