We're looking at starting to apply changes to the DEQM, both new content and applying reconciliation changes from last ballot. Should we use this DaVinci general stream to coordinate that, or is there a DEQM-specific stream that folks would prefer we use? @Eric Haas @Viet Nguyen

Zulip is best. I have been out of the loop so I don't know where the new
content is documented but that is where we need to start...

I usually tweak the stuff in the 'framework folder' to keep it updated with the latest bells and whistles. I have a few things to add like a copy button for some of the urls and few css tweaks but that is not a priority. let me know if you all are making changes in there so I can update my base template for other igs. There is also a handy _config.yml file in frameworks for site variables. In the future, I will be moving some of the frontmatter to there as well

view this post on Zulip Matthew Tiller (Mar 01 2019 at 22:15):

I'm confused about the section levels in the IG. I saw a commit that @Eric Haas made in Oct last year that increased the section level by one (added a '#') for all sections on several pages. In response to GF#17897 I was about to reduce it by one. But I can't figure out why the page titles are sectioned, but only on the build site. For example, https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/davinci-deqm/guidance.html has '2.1' as the title above the ToC. The 2018 Sep version of that page looks like I would expect http://hl7.org/fhir/us/davinci-deqm/2018Sep/STU3/guidance.html. I've looked at the CSS to no avail.

Hey @Bryn Rhodes can we update the roles in the connectathon to align with the DEQM IG?

Also I edited this in the IG and did not get a satisfactory answer:

"Not all data elements defined within the referenced CQM will always be present in the EHR for each patient for which an individual measure report is to be sent. Therefore, an individual measure report will not contain data for these data elements. For example, if a CQM has a criterion for “blue eyed patients” and the source system does not capture eye color, then the corresponding report for that patient will missing that observation.

Whereas individual measure reporting scenario defines this consistent approach to missing data, specifications of CQMs define the logical processing of missing data (e.g., how to classify a patient into various populations in the absence of an eye color observation). In other words, the CQM addresses how it factors in missing data when calculating criteria, and it is the job of the individual measure report to include relevant data that was present in the EHR, and to not include data that was missing from the EHR"

This suggests the measure definition defines what to do when the data is missing and not the profile...which makes sense because the measure author is going to have to deal with the missing data.

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 21 2019 at 20:19):

Yes, I'll update those. I struggled with the names when I put it together and chose EHR because Producer felt too abstract for a connectathon scenario, but I'll change it to Producer and provide some explanation.

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 21 2019 at 20:21):

Yes, that guidance is correct, putting it in the profile pushes the constraint down the stack closer to the producer. If it's not in the profile, then the measure author has to deal with the missing information in the measure specification.

view this post on Zulip Bryn Rhodes (Mar 21 2019 at 20:22):

So we put the constraints in the profiles so we could have the conversation. If it really is the case that the producers won't always be able to provide the data in that way, then either 1) In QI-Core we provide generalized guidance about how to deal with that, or 2) The measure authors deal with the variability in the measure specifications.
