RFC Assessment
Impact Assessment Considerations
Patient Safety• E.g. Field length not sufficient to display clinical data
Operational Impact• E.g. Design of messages is anticipated to result in system performance challenges once
systems are operational
Development Impact• E.g. Tooling is not supported requiring a manual workaround for software or standards
developers

How to Access Release Scope
The Scope of the release has been posted on InfoCentral in the following location:
https://infocentral.infoway-inforoute.ca/2_Standards/1_pan-Canadian_Standards/Z_Open_Review/2013_HL7_Release_Scope_-_For_Public_Comment
This page will include details about how the scope was prioritized, a link to the scope statement and a comment spreadsheet.
Release Scope Statement Spreadsheet• An excel spreadsheet, with a tab for each SCWG
• This spreadsheet includes all open RFCs
• RFCs highlighted in green are currently planned to be included in the next release, and those highlighted in yellow will be included in a best efforts basis
• RFCs that are not highlighted in yellow or green either have a Status of Wait/Under Analysis or the have an SC Priority of Deferred
• Work has been done by the SMEs to summarize both the business and technical requirements
Comment Spreadsheet
• Any Premium Member will have the option to request that an RFC be added or removed from scope
• If an RFC is to be added to the scope of the release, information will need to be provided in the comment spreadsheet about the impact and adoption. The priority of the RFC will then be reassessed by the SC using the matrix displayed in an earlier slide
• If Stakeholders would like to change the technical requirements for an RFC, this should be done through the SCWG during the review period
FAQ1. Can RFCs be added to the scope of the release that
do not yet have their analysis complete? Yes, if the analysis can be completed and the solution approved by the SCWG by February 1st.
2. Can changes be made to the technical requirements of an RFC that is already included in the release scope? Yes, but analysis should be completed and approved by the SCWG by February 1st.
FAQ3. What if there is an RFC that needs to be added to the
scope of the release, but we can’t get the analysis completed by February 1st? If an RFC meets the criteria to be considered an Urgent Priority, it should be brought to the attention of the Release Management team by sending an email to [email protected]
4. What if I would recommend closing an RFC? Bring this to the attention of the responsible SME or send an email to [email protected], providing your rationale. After the release scope review is complete we will post all RFCs recommended for closure and give Stakeholders an opportunity to comment before closing any RFCs.
