Current Approach | Using the Agile Approach to CPG Development (inclusive of Integrated Process) to concurrently Produce Guidance and Make Guidance Computable in Agile CPG Team (C19 DGWG) | Currently shared NACHC COVID-19 data dictionary to partnered CHCs/HCCNs modified from the COVID-19 Interoperability Alliance value sets (NACHC) |
| Pearls/Tips Learned/Tools | getting variables coded/mapped is key but time consuming (UMN) Approach Used by C19 DGWG Using CPG-on-FHIR standard for representing/ expressing the full intent of the Guidance in computer-interpretable artifacts (part of HL7 CPG-IG) Using the Agile Approach to CPG Development (inclusive of Integrated Process) to concurrently Produce Guidance and Make Guidance Computable (part of HL7 CPG-IG) Use Agile Knowledge Engineering methods, principles, and tools Cross-functional Integrated team (Agile CPG Team) Leverage composite nature of CPGs (e.g. can develop logic for inferences on patient information- CPG_CaseFeatures) to build incrementally and iteratively with rapid feedback Pull knowledge engineers into Content design/reviews; pull domain SMEs into knowledge representation design/reviews Leverage CPG-on-FHIR as a faithful expression of Guidance and its ability to create computationally derived CDS and Cognitive Support, patient-specific, practice-level digital Quality Measures/Metrics, eCaseReports, etc. to create computable artifacts used downstream in the Learning Health System and to provide closed-loop feedback/feedforward. Leverage established tools and capabilities (e.g. BPM+ process and tooling, Clinical Ontology) to author computable Guidance and Open Source tooling to translated into HL7 CPG-on-FHIR to leverage derivative and native compute Additional Pearls from C19DGWG Engage consumers/ users early and often Engage downstream vendors (e.g Terminology vendor USED in the EHRs) early Just because everyone everyone is using the same terminology systems doesn't mean they're agreeing how to use the actual terms- this needs to be considered and addressed to make ecosystem/supply chain work properly (feedforward from Evidence, but also feedback of data semantics back into evidence) Learn from related communities of practice (e.g. Agile Software Engineering) | |
| Desired Approach | Harmonize latest evidence from multiple sources and serve/push the guidance to partnered HCCNs (NACHC) Seamless collaboration of clinical stakeholders to determine best practice approach in a constantly evolving environment; More asynchronous work processes to optimize efficiency (ACEP/EC) | From C19DGWG Build computable artifacts/assets on Real-World data to enable better design/ specification and Test-driven Development (Agile) Leverage mature Knowledge Base to implement Knowledge Architecture (e.g. CPG profiles) and design, develop, test, maintain, and reuse artifacts/ assets Concurrent Validation and Development using above Others better mapping approaches/collaboration with terminology vendors to speed mapping (UMN) Pull together multiple fit-for-purpose standards addressing the whole stack: BPM+, SNOMED, FHIR, ANF (VA) Interoperable format leveraging CPG-on-FHIR (working with C19 digital guideline WG on this) (UMN) |

| Support We Can Provide Other Participants | Engagement with ACEP’s group of clinical expert (ACEP/EC) | Data dictionary development (NACHC) Workshop on COVID-19 Ontologies (WCO-2020) details of the workshop here: https://github.com/CIDO-ontology/WCO |
Implement Guidance (e.g., as CDS, eCQMs) (See this CoP page) | Analyze Results (e.g., care outcomes) (See this CoP page) | Apply Results (e.g., Quality Improvement, create evidence) (See this CoP page) | |

Current Approach | |||
| Pearls/Tips Learned/Tools | Need for CDS to be malleable to facilitate interoperability as various sites (even within same system) may have variation in practices; Need to have expertise in house to implement these solutions (UMN) Non-standardized workflows/terminology/modeling allow ambiguity in guideline implementation and do not support platform agnostic sharing. (VA) | ||
| Desired Approach | more real-time tracking of results (UMN) Gain insights on any specific intervention and patient outcomes at an aggregate for each health center controlled network (NACHC) | Feed real-time info on guideline adherence to providers (UMN) Long-term implementation of data capture / workflow improvements (NACHC) | |
| Needs to Achieve Desired Approach | Check all that apply __Better source/input materials [Details: ] __Common format/terminologies for managing/sharing data [Collaboration with others so that decisions we make about standards to use are compatible with choices made by others (VA)] __Other [Details:] Certification/trainings so current CDS builders can quickly learn new skills - e.g., CDS hooks/Smart on FHIR/etc. (UMN) | Check all that apply __Better source/input materials [Details: ] __Common format/terminologies for managing/sharing data [Details: ] Collaborative effort to harmonize and standardize data capture and automated, continuous data extraction.
