Implementation Guide

Details

This project aims to fully consolidate the existing HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide: S and I Framework Lab Results Interface, Release 1, DSTU R2 - US Realm with the HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide: Electronic Laboratory Reporting to Public Health, Release 2, DSTU R1.1 - US Realm, as well as include the Newborn Screening and NAACCR reporting requirements plus the HL7 Version 2 Implementation Guide: Clinical Genomics Coded Reporting, Release 1 (including addressing the pharmacogenomics ballot comments from the first ballot round where the original PSS excluded that aspect) into a complete, cohesive Laboratory Results Interface Implementation Guide.

Determine whether the updates can be made backwards compatible or require adjustments. The desire is to maintain backwards compatibility wherever possible.

Work with Financial Management WG when and how to incorporate support for further privacy and security requirements.


This project establishes the necessary consistency that is essential when communicating various types of laboratory results in different settings (e.g., ambulatory and public health, with others to follow). The current guides have small variances due to variant development and publication timeframes that this project will be able to fully synchronize.

Additionally, this will help further synchronize with eDOS, LOI, and the EHR-FM IGs as they are targeted for January ballot as well.

LRI, ELR, Clinical Genomics, Public Health Reporting, Newborn Screening, Cancer Reporting (?NAACCR?), Ambulatory Lab Reporting.

The new IG is based on three existing IGs. Given the variant names that need to be harmonized (LRI, LOI, eDOS, ELR, etc.), we propose that the new name is 'Laboratory Results Interface (LRI) Implementation Guide R1 – STU 3'

2020 June: TSC approved STU Extension Request for HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide: Lab Results Interface (LRI) Release 1, STU Release 3 - US Realm for 2 years 2018 June: TSC approved STU publication request of HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation Guide: Laboratory Results Interface (LRI), Release 1 STU Release 3 - US Realm in STU per iod until June 21, 2020. Nov 2016: Staff attended a CG WG call to discuss reconciliation efforts being done on project 1213. Per H. Buitendijk: based on feedback from David and Lynn we created this new one to make balloting/publishing easier, while we are keeping existing projects on the individual, contributing pieces open until we get to the first ballot. This allows for any open DSTUs to still receive comments that we can then merge into this one. jan 2022 - working applying updates and preparing for publishing Jan 2026 - adding support for NAACCR profiles
