Purpose

• Review the variances between two HL7 implementation guides

• Build consensus around variances and how to resolve/mitigate

• Select an implementation guide

– Can be combination of

• An existing implementation guide

• An existing implementation guide with minor modification (may require out of cycle ballot)

• A blended guide that harmonizes

• Determine needed enhancement for Meaningful Use Stage 2 and possible enhancements for future Meaningful Use Stage 3 requirements
