RE: HCLS Agenda Thursday (tomorrow): Roadmap on RDF for Healthcare Information Interoperability (Yosemite Project)

hi vipul,



(just got back from vacation, hence late reply)



i agree that it is good to include claims data but the caveat with using
the claims data is that its criteria is for the health care provider to get
paid, not to accurately describe the condition of the patient.



cheers,

michael

Hi Peter,



Is it possible for us to get more information on this? A write up, a paper
or something?



An interesting point to note – is that Claims/Administrative Billing Data
is an important data source for HEDIS metrics and reports.

Is your system based on EMR data or claims data?



The reason I bring this up is that it might be important for the RDF
representation to also capture Claims data (which is a much more common
data source than EMR Data

for analytics as of now, though with more EMR penetration, this might
change). In that case the  top ontology levels are likely to be different
and different from the HL7 model.



Thanks!

We (Kaiser) are working with Ian Horrock's group at Oxford on a project for
automating HEDIS reports using RDFox.
RDFox is a novel kind of RDF store that can use OWL-RL and Datalog and can
do massively parallel processing.

For the RDF models, I really hope they are not so ad hoc, but that they
follow the HL7 V3 backbone idea of starting top ontology levels with
Entities Roles participations and Acts.  It is key to have this for all of
the models to be HL7 compatible.  If the RDF healthcare models start with
this level, then they will be compatible with HL7 V2 and CDA etc.

P.S. If anyone is interested but cannot make this call tomorrow, please
let me know by email, so that we can follow up separately.  I still want
your input!
