RE: [ebxml-jc] RE: ISO TC215 e-Business study

Hello,

 

As an update to the 
contacts with ISO TC 215 (healthcare) earlier this year, I met Frans van Bommel 
again last week.

 

The main new item 
of interest is a new project called "Document Registry Framework", which intends 
to develop an ISO standard based on the IHE XDS profile:

 

This Techinical 
Specification is applicable to focus on presenting further development of 
Document Registry Framework for transmitting, storing, and utilizing  documents (e.g. CDA, DICOM, etc.) in the 
clinical environment based on the ebXML Registry Framework. This document is to 
specify the general document registry and associated repository framework by 
specialization of ISO 15000 (ebXML registry standards). 
This 
Technical Specification defines a specific use of the ebXML Registry Standard 
for the sharing of documents of any standardized content in the context of 
healthcare.  It does not require the 
development of new health informatics standards.  It describes the means to locate and 
access documents among a diverse set of health 
organizations.

 

This project is 
proposed by:

 

Il-Kon 
Kim

Intelligent Health Information System Development 
Center

Other topics we 
discussed seem less relevant to the OASIS ebXML TCs.  One is about a 
mapping mechanism for embedded references in objects that are moved to another 
domain (where the references don't exist). This is similar to XML catalogs. The 
other is about a common data type library which includes data types for 
terminology, names and addresses, text and content data types, 
quantity data types, collection data types, timing data types. I think this has 
many potential links with other projects (Core Components, NDRs, CIQ, UnitsML, 
W3C XSD part 2) but not really to OASIS TCs. 

 

I will get more 
information about other areas, some of which may have more obvious links with 
other OASIS ebXML TCs, in particular protocols to interface with Electronic 
Health Records (EN 13606-5, "exchange models"). 

 

If you have any 
questions or comments, please contact me.

 

Pim

Dear all,

 

I am resending you the questions about a possible future for ebXML within 
TC215. 

There at the moment not enough answers in order to prepare the advice for 
the Montreal meeting.

We need your ideas too!!!.

Please take a few minutes and insert some lines in the email with your view 
upon the ebXML subject.

 

Best regards

Frans van Bommel

Dear all,

 

Attached you will find the minutes (summary) of the ISO TC215 ebXML 
orientation meeting hosted by HL7 in San Diego. 

Sorry for sending it later as promished during the meeting. At the end of 
the document references are made to more information about the MoU, ebXML, OASIS 
and HL7. 

The next step will be the preparation of the advice for TC meeting in 
Montreal (29 March 2007). We have prepared a few questions in order to get a 
better view upon a possible role of TC215 in the e-Business process. Based upon 
the already available results of the study and the answers of all the experts 
Dr.Kwak and Mr van Bommel will introduce a proposal for the 
future relationship between TC215 and ebXML.

 

Questions:

1. Which sector and/or group do you represent? 
(Healthcare, Business, ICT, Standardisation, ........)

2. What do you think can be the benefit of using ebXML 
for TC215 and or HL7?

3. Which parts of ebXML are of most interest for 
TC215

4. Which areas of the healthcare domain can use ebXML as 
it is (Patient records, reimbursement, .........)

5. Is there a need for TC215 to support the ebXML 
development process in common (not only Healthcare)?

6. Organisational viewpoint: How can we work together in 
the future with ISO, OASIS, UN/cefact and others for e-Business (New liasons, 
participation in other groups, a new WG or task Force within TC215, 
......)?

7. If a new TC215 WG is proposed, what should be the 
main target of this group.

 

Note that for this purpose we don't need to much technical details but 
we prefer only short opinions (if needed with references to other 
documents with more information).

 

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Please take a short time to fill in the questions of this email and 
return them to me before 1 March 2007.

 

Best regards

Frans van Bommel
