Lab Results Interface Pilots WG Kick-Off

August 1, 2011

Agenda

• Purpose• Review of Architecture• Workgroup Administration• Timeline• Next Steps

Purpose

– Provide Specifications and Project Management for the LRI Pilots

– Test whether LRI pilots can successfully incorporate the proposed use in lab reports of several standards – LOINC, OIDs, SNOMED CT, and UCUM

– To ensure that the LRI Implementation Guide (IG) is both deployment-ready and implementer-friendly prior to widespread adoption

Planned Activities

• Types of Tasks– Analysis of Requirements for Successful Piloting– Design of Pilots – Best Practices

• Areas of Focus– Pilot Deployment Models– Testing Methodologies– Pilot Test Plans– Test Data Generation– Vocabulary - LOINC, SNOMED CT, UCUM, OIDs

• For each area of focus we’ll perform an analysis and design to identify specific tasks

• Some areas of focus will become sub-groups (e.g., test data)

Overview of Focus Areas

• Piloting Methodologies– LIS systems and EHRs supporting the LRI implementation guide– Approaches

• Deployment Models• How do we test vocabulary?

• Test Plans of Pilot Testing– LIS systems and EHRs supporting the LRI implementation guide– End-to-end process– Range of test cases

• Test Data– Identify common-typical use cases from in-scope lab results– Support the range of message content (e.g., multiple results in a single message)– Data must be relevant and realistic (e.g., use correct code for result)– Community to decide level that is important, breadth, and depth

Topics for Next Meeting

• Communication channels and collaboration• Review reports from New/Prospective Pilots

Workgroup committed members– Review new enrollees of pilot participants

– Discuss scope of Proposed Pilots Projects

Homework

• Sign up for Wiki and Work Group– Indicate where you can help out

• Review LRI Architecture WG Wiki• Review LRI Implementation Guide WG Wiki• Review LRI Vocabulary WG Wiki• Review
