Chlamydia Screening

The goal of this pilot is to demonstrate the usability of the new specifications (Quality Improvement and Clinical Knowledge or QUICK data model, Clinical Quality Language or CQL), where the standards need improvement, and to provide experiential input on how the specifications will serve future implementations in Electronic Health Record systems. This pilot will be focused on how QUICK and CQL can be successfully tailored to suit the needs of implementers interested in supporting clinical decision support (CDS) and clinical quality measures (CQM) for screening, treatment, and follow-up of chlamydia trachomatis infection in community settings.
Additional benefits of the pilot include:

• Broader visibility into the harmonized standards being developed in HL7
• Ability to leverage initiative resources
• Contribution to unification of the CDS/CQM community
• Recognition as an early adopter

At the conclusion of the pilot, pilot participants will aid an evaluation that will inform further development of the specifications.
