SDOH Referrals

Ongoing work on SDOH.RSQ (referral status query) with the goal of having volume 1 for a base unconstrained IG and an US-specific IG constrained to Gravity profiles ready for the IHE meeting.

Obtain a date for publishing the 360X-SD profile for public comment

Update the ONC confluence page for 360X-SD

Discussion of potential new projects

Referrals for procedures

This can be a new named option for the base 360X specification, where we describe how a specific procedure is conveyed via the HL7 v2 message to the recipient.

360X on TEFCA

We had a discussion on the potential benefits for enabling 360X over TEFCA. There are two main areas that need to be addressed:

• the communication protocol on how the referral request and subsequent packages will be exchanged
• endpoint directory enhancements to enable addressing the referral to the appropriate endpoint, and to provide an indication that a particular endpoint supports 360X.

At the next SDHO/General call on 7/26 we will discuss creating a survey for QHINs about interest in this project and possible approaches.
