Also, here is the Project charter we wrote and passed yesterday. David -----Original Message----- Excellent meeting of the minds this week in Burlingame,
CA! From discussion For your review, meeting notes are attached. For
questions and comments, I Sincerely, Nicole Rikkinen |
Recognizing the need for specifications for services to support
healthcare IT as part of national infrastructures (such as US NHII and
Australia’s HealthConnect), Health Level Seven and the Object Management Group
have forged this agreement to collaborate to the advantage of the health domain
sector. This charter outlines
high-level distribution of responsibilities and separation of concerns
specifically related to this services effort. Note that this joint effort between HL7
and OMG is not exclusive. Either
organization may engage in independent efforts or similar joint efforts with
others.
This project is a collaborative effort
between HL7 and OMG to identify and document service specifications,
functionality, and conformance supportive and relevant to healthcare IT
stakeholders and resulting in real-world implementations.
As part of this collaborative
effort:
HL7 and OMG shall jointly identify the
service candidates for specification and prioritize and select candidate
services for specification and implementation, and jointly allocate functions to
services. OMG members shall provide
expertise in distributed architecture and implementation to HL7 activities to
positively impact the selection of services and allocation of functions. HL7 members shall engage in the OMG RFP
process to ensure consistency with the functional
requirements.
HL7 shall elaborate the business functional needs, allocate functions to
services, and develop conformance criteria for the services specified. HL7 shall also have responsibility for
providing the information modeling and content in support of these
services. All of the
computationally independent work shall occur within HL7, as well as the
functional conformance criteria assuring that service implementations meet their
specified capability.
OMG shall refine the HL7 developed computationally-independent
specifications [functional, semantics, information model, terminology, etc.]
resulting in computationally-dependent standards and user, vendor, and reference
implementations. OMG shall provide
technical expertise such as Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Model-driven
Architecture (MDA), as well as leveraging multi-industry solutions. OMG shall leverage the strength of its
adoption process to promote rapid standards development and marketplace product
support given that submitters are required to produce implementations of the
standards they specify.
