Changes:

Da Vinci CDEX 2022 September Ballot. This ballot is restricted to the Draft content in the STU 1.1.0 version of CDex. The draft content includes 1) requesting and sending attachments and 2) communicating the purpose of use in Task Based Queries.

Version = 1.1.0

This STU1.1.0 version of The Da Vinci Clinical Data Exchange (CDex) Implementation Guide is the second published version of this guide and is the result of the 2022 May HL7 balloting process. The resulting resolution of the community comments and edits to the guide has been agreed to and voted on by the members of the sponsoring HL7 International Patient Care and Payer/Provider Information Exchange Work Groups.

What’s new in Version 1.1.0 of CDex:

  • This content is DRAFT and is open for review. An Attachments section documenting how to exchange attachments for claims or prior authorization.
    • A Solicited and Unsolicited Attachments page documents the differences and similarities between solicited and unsolicited attachments workflows and the CDex transactions that can be used for each.
    • A Sending Attachments page that documents a FHIR-based approach for sending attachments for claims or prior authorization directly to a Payer.
    • A Requesting Attachments page to document a FHIR-based approach for requesting attachments for claims or prior authorization from a Provider.
    • A Using CDex Attachments with DaVinci PAS page that illustrates where in the PAS workflow the Payer could use CDEX to request attachments and the Provider could use CDEX to submit attachments.
  • Signatures page sections for each transaction in CDex to provide specific guidance and rules to exchange signed data using FHIR and non-FHIR signatures.
  • A Change Log page to document the changes across the versions of CDex
  • More examples and example scenarios

These changes are the result of almost 60 trackers listed below. They include the 2022 May HL7 balloting process, non-ballot issue, and Draft new content to meet anticipated Attachments legislation and rules.
