Two New Measures

15)The IIS processes an administered vaccine using the preferred NDC format.

  • This will include Unit of Use and Unit of Sale test cases in the

community preferred 11 digits with hyphens format

16)The IIS processes an administered vaccine using alternative NDC formats.

  • This will include Unit of Use and Unit of Sale test cases in known

(and standard) alternative NDC formats (i.e., 10 digits w/ hyphens; 11 digits w/o hyphens)

How will this impact Validation?

  • It won’t change anything immediately
  • Validation will remain as is for now
  • Measures have to be in Assessment for 3 quarters before

they can be considered for Validation

  • After 3 quarters, they can be moved to Validation through

the same public comment and board approval process as Assessment

  • Realistically, we’d be looking at Q1 2021 to recommend

moving these measures into Validation

Disagreement of NDC and CVX

  • Both CVX and NDC can be transmitted in RXA-5
  • CE data type allows two representations of the same concept
  • One concept may be more specific (NDC is more specific than CVX)
  • Receiver may read one or both of the values
  • IIS should support both CVX and NDC
  • CVX support is required by the IG
  • NDC support is needed to support certified systems
  • What if the codes don’t agree?
  • Understanding the correct code is critical for IIS
slide-29
SLIDE 29

Disagreement of NDC and CVX

  • Two resources that might help:
  • https://repository.immregistries.org/resource/iis-functional-guide/
  • https://repository.immregistries.org/resource/iis-data-quality-practices-to-

monitor-and-evaluate-data-at-rest/

  • Ideal solution
  • IIS should recognize conflicts between values
  • IIS may return an error or warning about situation
  • IIS decides on what data should or should not be stored
  • IIS should have data quality process to engage with submitter and resolve
slide-30
SLIDE 30

NIST Tool Warnings

  • Will generate warnings for messages
  • Even for NIST example messages!
  • Warnings indicates:
  • Areas that the tool cannot verify that will

require additional testing to ensure conformance

  • Especially for RE fields
  • Warnings are expected:
  • Test messages sent by EHR systems
  • Production data from submitters

Disease with Presumed Immunity & OBX-14

  • When sending history of Varicella infection
  • OBX|1|CE|59784-9^Disease with presumed immunity ^LN|1|38907003^HISTORY

OF VARICELLA INFECTION^SCT||||||F|||20090412<CR>

  • What do you send in OBX-14 Date/Time of Observation?
  • Recent SISC decision:
  • “If the appropriate value is not known, OBX-14 should remain empty – it is an RE field

and is not required in every message instance”

  • But what if only YYYYMM is known?
  • Option 1: Send OBX-14 as blank
  • Option 2: Send only YYYYMM in OBX-14
  • This is a conformance violation but should not prevent message from being processed
