Process & Procedures for FACAs and Workgroups HIT Policy Committee gives advice to the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, the recommendations are not binding. HIT Policy Committee is a Federal advisory Committee subject to the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). Workgroups cannot provide advice or recommendations directly to ONC, they only report to the parent Committee All Workgroup meetings are open to the public, and the public may make comments at the close of the meeting Majority of the Workgroup calls are held virtually with possible in person meetings, listening sessions or hearings Detailed minutes are kept for each meeting and are posted on the ONC website along with all meeting materials All official calendar appointments and meeting materials are distributed from the ONC FACA Meetings account 5

Shared Care Plan: Proposed for Future Stage 12 Stage 3 Request for Comment (Proposed for Future Stage) EP/ EH / CAH Objective: EP/ EH/CAH who transitions their patient to another site of care or refers their patient to another provider of care For each transition of site of care, provide the care plan information, including the following elements as applicable: Medical diagnoses and stages Functional status, including ADLs Relevant social and financial information (free text) Relevant environmental factors impacting patient’s health (free text) Most likely course of illness or condition, in broad terms (free text) Cross-setting care team member list, including the primary contact from each active provider setting, including primary care, relevant specialists, and caregiver The patient’s long-term goal(s) for care, including time frame (not specific to setting) and initial steps toward meeting these goals Specific advance care plan (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST)) and the care setting in which it was executed. For each referral, provide a care plan if one exists Measure: The EP, eligible hospital, or CAH that transitions or refers their patient to another site of care or provider of care provides the electronic care plan information for 10% of transitions of care to receiving provider and patient/caregiver. Certification Criteria: Develop standards for a shared care plan, as being defined by S&I Longitudinal Coordination of Care WG. Some of the data elements in the shared care plan overlap content represented in the CDA. Adopt standards for the structured recording of other data elements, such as patient goals and related interventions

Initial Task: Shared Care Plans Elements of a care plan in clinical summaries for stage 2: – Care plan field, including goals and instructions. – Care team including the primary care provider of record and any additional known care team members beyond the referring or transitioning provider and the receiving provider. Growing demand for EHRs to support Shared Care Plans – Raises a host of issues, including what is a care plan? How should consumers and caregivers update these plans, share them, author or co-author, etc.? – S&I Framework has a significant focus on care plans 13

Context: Standards Activities on Shared Care Plans Parsimony is a common theme for standards; many complement each other VDT, publish and subscribe: C-CDA DIRECT Longitudinal Care Plan: C-CDA Patient generated health data HL-7: C-CDA CDISC; roles team members: PGHD C-CDA HL7 CDISC: enroll in trials and research DIRECT: provider to/from consumer and team IOM: shared decision making interoperability HL7 14

Outlining a Work Plan and Next Steps Identify issues related to care plans that WG will tackle – Next WG meeting will dive into care plans Briefing from ONC on projects that may raise policy issues for WG to address Identify and prioritize other topics that WG would address in the future 15
