- Description
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) seeks to continue its use of standard vocabulary in the Health Level Seven (HL7) Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) implementation specifications under development for reporting healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) data from healthcare facilities that use vendor infection control surveillance applications to CDC's National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). Phase IV of the CDA for HAI reporting project extends technical guidance for reporting HAIs, previously developed in Phase III of the project, to a new set of reporting requirements. These reporting requirements include vocabulary needed to convey HAI data in accordance with (1) NHSN specifications, (2) healthcare informatics and information technology standards, and (3) Public Health Information Network Vocabulary Access and Distribution System (PHIN VADS) requirements. Our current contract with Lantana Consulting Group (former Alschuler Associates) provides the maintenance needed to ensure that all work products developed for HAI Phases I - IV are kept up-to-date with the programs evolving requirements for collecting HAI data using NHSN. Maintaining CDA validation tools and vocabulary tables in as timely as way as possible is essential to support the rapidly increasing use of CDA to report HAI events that states and CMS currently mandate. This modification will add a requirement to create new work on the NHSN dialysis form: enabling dialysis events to be reported to NHSN using Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) as part of CMS plans to use NHSN as the HAI reporting infrastructure for approximately 5000 dialysis facilities nationwide beginning in 2012. Based on the above, we believe that no other source, but Lantana Consulting Group in East Thetford, VT can realistically meet our needs. Therefore, a modification to existing contract No. 200-2010-33893 to add this work is contemplated. The estimated period of performance for this work is 30 days from date of award.
