Issues

IHE welcomes New Issues from the GitHub community. For those without GitHub access, issues may be submitted at ITI Public Comments.

As issues are submitted they will be managed on the SVCM GitHub Issues, where discussion and workarounds may be found. These issues, when critical, will be processed using the normal IHE Change Proposal management and balloting. It is important to note that as soon as a Change Proposal is approved, it carries the same weight as a published Implementation Guide (i.e., it is testable at an IHE Connectathon from the time it is approved, even if it will not be integrated until several months later).

Open Issues and Questions

These issues are known as part of the publication and IHE invites comments.

None

Closed Issues

These issues have been decided and documented in the publication.

  • SVCM1 - For the validate and translate concept map, is an additional actor needed? (that can be drawn from existing actors in other profiles) Simplified actors to “Terminology Repository” and “Terminology Consumer.”
  • SVCM2 - Use of the Clinical Mapping Profile (CMAP). Decision made to merge the updated FHIR-enabled SVS and CMAP Profiles into one here.
  • SVCM3 - Within the document, two words are being used for “value set.” One word “valuesets” is being used in the title to simplify and avoid the use of commas in the title.
  • SVCM4 - Older SVS language on the “Retrieve multiple value sets” transaction on intensional and extensional value set definitions was removed.
  • SVCM5 - Combine discovery use case for Code System, Value Set and Concept Map into one or separate out Concept Map discovery as its own use case?

    • Decided to keep these as one as the workflow is the same.
  • SVCM6 - Confirm title for the merged SVS and updated CMAP Profiles – SVCM?

    • Title confirmed
  • SVCM7 - Need decision on how/whether to incorporate Clinical Mapping (CMAP) Actor Options

    • Decided to not incorporate those options
  • SVCM8 - Are there concepts or descriptions included in X.4 that are unnecessary for the purposes of this profile?

    • Removed most of this section to streamline it
