Activity Catalog

These activities serve as navigation targets for ui.launchActivity messages. They are designed to describe navigation points within an EHR environment. We focus on defining common activities that are likely to exist across multiple EHR systems, rather than creating a fine-grained EHR-specific workflow model. It’s important to note that this is an extensible set; while we define a set of standardized activities using “bare” keywords like order-sign, any EHR may support custom activities using fully-qualified URIs like https://my-ehr/custom-activity-name.

Standardized activities follow the same naming convention as CDS Hooks, with noun-verb form. In addition to following the same naming convention, we’ll align with the actual names of existing CDS Hooks activities where feasible.

Conformance Language

The key words “MUST”, “MUST NOT”, “REQUIRED”, “SHALL”, “SHALL NOT”, “SHOULD”, “SHOULD NOT”, “RECOMMENDED”, “MAY”, and “OPTIONAL” in this specification are to be interpreted as described in RFC2119.
