Project Intent | Implementation Guide |
Project Need | The current HL7 CDA Vital Records Death Reporting DSTU was designed to provide a document standard that will support interoperable electronic data exchanges among electronic health record systems, United States (U.S.) vital records (VR) systems and potentially other public information systems for death events. Release 1 was limited to a subset of the content required for death reporting that may be transmitted from the health care organizations' electronic health record systems to their state/jurisdictional Vital Statistics Agency based on the U.S. Standard Certificate of Death. The Scope Statement for Release 1 of this standard noted 'In a later stage, the CDC/NCHS will also explore the potential to use the same standard to transmit vital records death reporting information from the state Vital Statistics Offices to the CDC/NCHS.' This project will address this reporting need. State and jurisdictional Vital Records representatives have expressed the need for both a messaging and document standard approach for VR death reporting to support individual state/jurisdictional implementation requirements. |

Williamson: Project #735 was for the V2.5.1 VRDR IG that we developed years ago. PHER decided not to move forward with a normative standard for this one, but instead enhanced the V2.5.1 evolving into a V2.6 with an expanded scope, which is project number 1208 that also says V2.5.1 VRDR in Project Insight because we started with plans to develop a V2.5.1 with expanded scope. The PHER WG moved us towards a V2.6 to support the new requirements. Basically: The first IG (DSTU 1) was a V2.5.1 Vital Records Death Reporting IG. The current IG is DSTU 2 – V2.6 Vital Records Death Reporting IG.
