§ 

·  CPM Ballot Reconciliation Wrap-Up

o  We started the formal wrap-up of CPM ballot reconciliation using the consolidated spreadsheet that Mead pulled together (Thanks Mead!)

·  Comments were pulled in to the spreadsheet from word document associated with overall negatives

·  We should treat each as negative, so we need to vote on these

·  Depending on how much discussion had already occurred in Orlando we will immediately go to vote (after quick summary) or fully address the topic.

o  Attached is the spreadsheet that reflects the reconciliation through today:

§ 

o  Additional discussion:

§  Only a CMET can go to Normative. The DMIM as pattern, with walkthrough can only be informative. We need to address similar to Clinical Statement. CMETs are due March 8.

§  We agreed that the DMIM will need to evolve while the CMET is locked in for DSTU. Even then there is opportunity to evolve more quickly before going normative.

§  Mead will contact Harry Solomon and II WG to address item 3 for further use cases and input into the model.

§  We will start to move the CPM update process to follow the Clinical Statement Change Request process to recognize multiple co-sponsors and avoid resolution of enhancements through the ballot cycle. Hans will work with Tom and Mead to set it up.

§  There is reluctance to use CMETs as that is hard for implementers, but notion of incorporating common CMETs – Use a universal CMETs or constrained CMETs, if you need a tighter version, incorporate these CMETs as appropriate, consider this a general policy, but examine each individual case

o  We agreed to pull another reconciliation meeting together early next week to wrap-up as much as possible.

·  Mead will poll for times and work with Hans to set it up asap.

·  Composite Order Model – Ballot Prep Status

o  NIB – Austin has drafted the NIB. We need to decide whether to limit scope to static model.

§  We would not work on storyboard until we have templates completed, support going to ballot only with static piece, leave dynamic model are out for scope for this round RMIM, walk through , message type, attribute

§  Move to limit scope as described in the NIB draft. Austin Kreisler, Rob Savage.

·  Against: 0; Abstain: 0; In Favor: 12

·  Austin will complete the NIB.

Future Agenda Items

·  Decision Making Document

· 
Specimen Segment Usage – Ruth Berge

·  Inbound Results - Ruth Berge

o  I have a question about Results inbound. I am not certain of the interpretation of different triggers in Chapter 7 relating to unsolicited results. The issue is whether there is a message trigger that indicates that receiving system should check first for an order and create an order if there is no order. Is the Thursday group the proper group for this question?
