Hi Derek,
Derek, If we start working on a white paper and prototype FHIR pieces that are a good replacement for the DSD (describes the aggregate metadata well and produces and ADX message), is it possible to convert this to profile in the middle of the cycle?
Please see my comment inline on options for replacing DSD.
Thanks
James

Hi all.
Please, let's commit to using the time we need to use in order to come up with the proposal we can all support. I will happily leverage whatever influence I have as an IHE QRPH PLanning co-chair to give us some wiggle room. Also, I will be attending the October meeting in Chicago and so can advocate in-person for whatever consensus-based work item or white paper proposal we come up with.
James -- given what Carl is suggesting, we could consider targeting a profile to replace DSD with a MeasureReport definition (rather than a white paper). I think our decision of which option to favour should depend on the relative maturity of MeasureReport vs DSD. If MeasureReport is still too nascent to support a profile, then a white paper should be preferred, i think.
I think a key considerations is whether we can derive validation schemas (XSD and schematron) for an ADX data message from a FHIR Measure resource. Given the recent development by Bob to generate validation schema for various data sets, I think it is important to leverage this process as it was one of the drive behind ADX version 2.1.
I agree that the maturity of FHIR resources that we use to replace the SDMX based DSD and being able to derive the validation schema from the FHIR based “DSD” created are key to deciding whether we submit a profile or white paper proposal.
Bob and Derek,
Including JSON format will be a great addition to ADX. We can propose a CP in the next meeting.
Thanks
James
