is there any activity in Aus around CQL?
Erich Schulz (Jun 13 2016 at 05:08):
I'm toying with the idea of FHIR based CQL->javascript transpiler (alternating between thinking "gee that would be cool" and then being completely overwhelmed by the magnitude of the task
Stephen Royce (Jun 13 2016 at 05:08):
Not that I'm aware of.
Erich Schulz (Jun 13 2016 at 05:10):
thanks @Stephen Royce is that because we havent gotten that far or is there a competitor?
Erich Schulz (Jun 13 2016 at 05:11):
I had a look at Gello a few years back but it only had one (commercial) implementation and seemed to lack momentum
Stephen Royce (Jun 13 2016 at 05:12):
I'd say because we haven't gotten that far yet. But bear in mind that I'm no expert in this area, so there could easily be stuff going on that I have no exposure to.
Erich Schulz (Jun 13 2016 at 05:14):
the thing I'm finding intriguing is, for the first time (that I've seen at least) there is a serious attempt to harmonise quality assurance logic with clinical DS
Erich Schulz (Jun 13 2016 at 05:14):
there's no real infrastructure to support CDSS (because it is so speculative, and the source data is missing for most part) - but there is plenty invested in QA (clinical indicators and audit)...
Erich Schulz (Jun 13 2016 at 05:16):
and who the heck is an expert? aren't we all making it up as we go along?

I'm now at a point where I have a CQL -> js transpiler very near finished. The missing components are a "runtime" (pretty simple just to implement the CQL functions), a FHIR client stub (hopefully less than a 100 lines on top of a REST module), oh and a truck load of test cases
Erich Schulz (Jun 21 2016 at 08:00):
so if anyone has made progress on the missing bits and are looking for a drop decision-support or general query language the let know
