Description | This project is to - Produce a unified working definition of substantive change as required in "HL7 Essential Requirements" (Health Level Seven International, Inc. 2016, 02.09.04) - Socialize the definition to all co-chairs and other interested parties. - Work with other HL7 Work Groups to publish it to a permanent location on an HL7 managed platform. - Subsidiary tasks will include finding all of the references and directing the process to change all of them to point to the new permanent location. The definition will be produced by harmonization of all of the current working definitions. NOTE: This effort will not address changes to the processes by HL7 in 'producing ANSI technical reports, or substantive changes in identification of the stakeholders (e.g., telecom, consumer, medical, environmental, etc.) likely to be directly impacted by the standard' which are addressed in the HL7 Essential Requirements.

Project Intent | New/Modified HL7 Policy/Procedure/Process |
Project Need | HL7 Governance and Operations Manual (GOM)' (Health Level Seven International GOM, Inc. 2016) specifies procedures to handle substantive changes. Continued ANSI accreditation is predicated on correctly following these procedures. Work Groups have the responsibility of applying those changes to their balloted content. Currently there are multiple definitions of substantive change available. ANSI definition: Substantive Change: A substantive change in a proposed American National Standard is one that directly and materially affects the use of the standard. Examples of substantive changes are below: - 'shall' to 'should' or 'should' to 'shall'; - addition, deletion or revision of requirements, regardless of the number of changes; - addition of mandatory compliance with referenced standards. |
