Description | This project will identify and define the initial set of 'key' FHIR resources related to the domain of clinical genetics/genomics and family history/pedigree sufficient for personalized medicine. These resources will be defined using the available FHIR tooling and in accordance with documented quality guidelines and balloted as part of the initial FHIR specification. Expected FHIR resources to be produced include: GeneticFamilyHistory and GeneticVariationObservation In addition, as the committee deems appropriate and time availability permits, it will define a small number of FHIR extensions relevant to domain content and expected to be necessary to support consistent early implementations. |

Project Intent | Supplement to a Current Standard |
Project Need | FHIR is a major new initiative by HL7 intended to significantly speed and enhance interoperability between healthcare systems. The FHIR methodology is dependent on the existence of a number of discrete data structure definitions called 'resources'. This project will create the set of essential resource definitions related to the domain of clinical genomics and genetic family history. |

External Pjt Collaborators | In producing resources, the committee will consult specifications from a wide variety of external organizations, including OpenEHR and IHE. However, this consultation will not require direct interaction with these other organizations. (Though some may be involved in the ballot review process.) |

Misc Notes | Nov 2015: G. Alterovitz - Close this project. Project 1217 is continuing this effort. PMO archived. This project will not ballot directly. Instead, content will be combined with resources from other committees and jointly balloted as part of the FHIR DSTU ballot (managed as a distinct TSC project). |
