VDT XML and HTML sample files - Laboratory Test and Diagnostic Image Reports

[Brigitte Donovan]

Does anyone know of a resource for example XML and HTML files for 170.315 (e)(1) View, Download, and Transmit (VDT)?  

VDT is the only criteria which requires Laboratory Test and Diagnostic Image Reports to be included in the CCDA. Since there is no Receiver SUT Test Data for the VDT criteria, it makes it difficult to confirm how this information should be incorporated in the CCDA. 

Any thoughts, suggestions, or examples are appreciated! Thank you!

As per the companion guide, we can capture  the Laboratory Test Report and Diagnostic Imaging reports under the “Result Observation Template” in the “Results” section

Diagnostic Imaging Reports:

On Laboratory Test Reports, we can capture all information except the highlighted one's:

L

o  For positive patient identification, either the patient’s name and identification number or a unique patient identifier and identification number --> [Part of CCDA header <recordTarget>]

o  The name and address of the laboratory location where the test was performed

o  The test report date

o  The test performed

o  Specimen source, when appropriate

o  The test result and, if applicable, the units of measurement or interpretation, or both

o  Any information regarding the condition and disposition of specimens that do not meet the laboratory’s criteria for acceptability

o  Pertinent “reference intervals” or “normal” values, as determined by the laboratory performing the tests, must be available to the authorized person who ordered the tests and, if applicable, the individual responsible for using the test results

o  The information for corrected reports
