PHDSC is committed to bring a common
voice from the
public health community
to the national efforts of standardization of
health and healthcare information
Represent public health interests (local, state and federal agencies and research communities) in the standards development, harmonization and maintenance activities by participation in the standard development (SDOs), data content committees (DCCs), standard harmonization entities and other healthcare standardization-related effortsPromote interoperability of health-related data systems to meet the health data needs of public and private organizations, agencies and individuals Educate clinical and public health professionals about standards and systems interoperability, and vendors and clinicians about public healthEnhance membership services

Public Health Case Reporting Early Hearing Detection & Intervention (EHDI)
Assuring Health IT Standards for Public Health
Stage I – Use HL7 CDA documents
Clinical EHRs
Stage I – Use HL7 v2.3.1 or v2.5.1 messages to electronically record, modify, retrieve, submit public health data
Syndromic Surveillance – use v2.3.1 or v2.5.1
Laboratory Results Reporting to Public Health – use v2.5.1
Reporting to Immunization Registries - use v2.3.1 or v2.5.1
Stage II – Use HL7 CDA documents
Reporting to State Cancer Registries
Reporting of Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) Quality Measures to Public Health

CDA for PH Project: History of HL7

They are the Continuity Care Record (CCD) standard and Clinical Document
Architecture (CDA) standards
They represent information in documents (i.e., forms)
Used “post occurrence”, i.e. once the actual process is done to provide
"snapshots" at a particular time
Contain data “as it was” when the document was originally created
Capture information and allow it to be shared
Can be superseded and corrected, but are "static documents" rather than
dynamic objects
The more passive and loosely coupled your communication process is, the
more the use of documents is applicable.
