Review of ONC Tech Forum information and signup.

Update on outstanding work on existing specifications

• AUT HL7 segment information was recorded (thanks Chuck!)
• 360XL has been submitted to IHE for public comment

Update on the discussions with the Ohio Health Information Partnership (OHIP)

• They are very excited about 360X becoming available form vendors
• They have a very strong statewide foodbank network (Ohio Association of Foodbanks)
• They want to see how using 360X can help with social care referrals
• Challenges:
  • Clinical information is not meant to be sent with the request
  • Support for 360X for initiating clinical referrals does not easily transfer to extra-clinical referrals (different users, different workflows)
  • If we add social care referrals to 360X, it will likely be years before implementations are available to users, and OHIP is looking for quick turnaround.
• We will continue discussions next time
