These are some example C-CDAs created by John D'Amore of Diameter Health for the HL7 Example Task Force. See http://www.diameterhealth.com for more information on me and what I'm working on.

What's here now

  • 6 examples of allergies
  • 7 examples of medications
  • 3 examples of procedures
  • 5 examples of lab results
  • 2 examples of vital signs
  • 1 example of a problem Note that some of these may have been reviewed by HL7 task force and HL7 Structured Documents Working Group. See http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=CDA_Example_Task_Force for more details

Why?

Lots of people will be implementing CCDA very soon; many have already started. But there are big questions about how to do what, and while an excellent implementation guide is a must, examples matter too. The community would benefit immensely from a public collection of examples that can be:

  • dissected,
  • discussed, and
  • corrected over time. (Note I stole the above text from CHB/J Mandel's Github repo for C-CDA documents submitted by EHR/HIT. Check that out @ https://github.com/chb/sample_ccdas)

Samples posted here may not been approved by HL7 or any other body. They are educated guesses and may change over time. The C-CDA Skeleton being used in my examples was developed by Lisa Nelson and is available at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ccda_samples
