Welcome to the September 2016 SOA-CDS Connectathon Landing Page

Introduction

The May 2016 SOA-CDS FHIR Connectathon tracks are part of a series of pilots whose intent is to validate the adequacy of proposed standards for the orchestration of sophisticated Clinical Quality Scenarios within a FHIR-based ecosystem.  A core aim of this pilot is to demonstrate the evaluation of a clinical quality measure and a supporting clinical decision support rule in a SOA-enabled and FHIR-based environment.

This initial pilot aims to assess the following:

  • The use of SOA services to orchestrate a realistic clinical quality scenario in the neonatal space and how these services can be enabled within a FHIR-based ecosystem. This pilot shall focus primarily on communication and event publish and subscribe services. The order service shall be introduced in a later pilot.
  • The use of CIMI-derived FHIR profiles that address the fundamental authoring requirements of measure and CDS-artifact developers.
  • The adequacy and implementability of CQIF FHIR resources and of the $evaluate operation for the invocation of CDS and measure evaluation services.
  • The orchestration of such services in a realistic FHIR-compliant EHR environment and clinician workflow.

The Proposed Tracks

Please visit the following links to learn more about the relevant FHIR Connectathon tracks for this pilot:

Proposed Scenario

In order to provide a more realistic context for this pilot, the CDS-SOA tracks will be implemented within the context of a selected clinical quality measure in the neonatal care domain. For this pilot, the community has selected the CMS 9 v4 "Exclusive Breastfeeding Measure". All other HeD/CQIF artifacts will be articulated within that context. Furthermore, we will focus on a specific and limited set of QI Core profiles and CIMI archetypes to support this use case and to demonstrate the aims of the pilot described above given resource and time constraints.

To learn more about the measure used for this pilot, please visit the link below:
