HL7v3 Implementation Workshop
workshop
1/4 day or 1/2 day
This workshop will expose the most pressing issues for those implementing useing HL7v3 and develop answers to them. This session will be looking at how real projects have answered the questions that they encountered when using HL7v3, and sharing the questions to which they found no answers in the standard, just solutions that were good enough for the project.
The workshop is intended for those that are actively planning or engaged in HL7v3 implementation projects, and are willing to share their experiences, achievements and concerns. Attendees are encouraged to at least scan the documents to be discussed in the second section before the workshop, and to arrive at the workshop expecting to contribute - at least with questions.
The workshop will be divided into two sections.
The first will run through a project life cycle, identifying the critical questions that implementers need answers to at each stage in the project, and establishing where within the body of HL7v3 material the answers to these questions can (or should) be found.
The second section will use the Implementation FAQ documents that are maintained by the HL7 Implementation Committee as a basis for discussion. We will establish what parts of these documents are most relevant to those at the workshop, and share first hand experiences in those areas.
Those attending the session will leave with some insights as to what is happening in other implementation projects that use HL7v3, and also a feel for how engaging in the development of HL7 documents can be directly relevant to immediate time-critical projects.
