Release date: 25March > OpenNCP 2.0.0

Themes for the sprints

  • PAC (Patient Access) [OpenNCP 2.0.0]
  • All terminology (translations/transcoding) should be at the NCP-A (LTR component) side;
  • Discover language: What and how will we provide the list of available languages? 
  • a. static page in portal; b. central services asynchronous synchronization (current process - like countries Patient search Identification method); c. real time central service request (CTS2 transaction);
  • Articulate with CareCom (Annika): How can TSAM sync with aimed languages (more that one > current implementation sync only one language)
  • HCER (Health Care Encounter Report) [OpenNCP 2.0.0]
  • Patient Summary with an alternative format, uses XCA/XDR.
  • NCP: workflow communication Country-B (produces request) Country-A (acknowledge response)
  • [Out of OpenNCP scope] NI-A: will use the information accordingly the country strategy;
  • MRO (Medication Related Overview)  [OpenNCP 2.1.0]
  • could possibly be linked with the Patient Access?
  • XCF implementation for OpenNCP [OpenNCP 2.2.0]

Deferred implementation items (need more information before scheduling)

  • Updates to tsam-synchronizer (CTS2 compliant) in light of the new Terminology Server 
  • implementation specification still to be finalized. 
  • [Out of OpenNCP scope] Implement the NEW Terminology Server (replacing the current server - central service)
  • ESS (the jury is apparently still out on the issue of PACE licensing)
