A Status Report, 2008-2009 WHO-FIC 2009/C006
Seoul, Republic of Korea WHO-FIC Education Committee: WHO-FIC 2009/C006 10 - 16 October 2009 A Status Report, 2008-2009 Cassia Maria Buchalla and Marjorie S. Greenberg Co-chairs Abstract The WHO-FIC Education Committee (EC) was established at the 2003 WHO-FIC Network meeting in Cologne, Germany, as a successor to the Subgroup on Training and Credentialing of the WHO-FIC Implementation Committee. New terms of reference were developed at the Cologne meeting to reflect generic tasks for education and training on the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD) and the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). Specific tasks have been agreed for both ICD and ICF. The Education Committee (EC) assists and advises WHO in improving the quality of use of the WHO classifications in member states through the development of training and certification strategies, the identification of best training practices and by providing a network for sharing expertise and experiences on education and training. The principal ICD tasks relate to an international training and certification program for ICD-10 mortality and morbidity coders; this program has been developed in conjunction with the International Federation of Health Records Organizations (IFHRO), a non-governmental organization in official relations with WHO. A Joint WHO-FIC – IFHRO Collaboration (JC) was established in late 2004 to carry forward this work. The Education Committee’s ICF tasks are being carried out in collaboration with the WHO-FIC Network’s Functioning and Disability Reference Group (FDRG). The Education Committee held four teleconferences in 2009 and a mid-year meeting in Raleigh, North Carolina, USA, in cooperation with the Joint Collaboration. -

November 5, 2003 – Letter to the Secretary – Comments on CHI
November 5, 2003 The Honorable Tommy G. Thompson Secretary Department of Health and Human Services 200 Independence Avenue SW Washington, D.C. 20201 Dear Secretary Thompson: The National Committee on Vital and Health Statistics (NCVHS) commends you for your commitment toward government wide adoption of clinical data standards that you first announced on March 21, 2003. NCVHS recognizes and appreciates that there is new momentum to adopt clinical data standards that is driven by you and the Consolidated Healthcare Informatics Initiative (CHI). Consequently, NCVHS is now working closely with CHI to study, select and recommend domain specific patient medical record information (PMRI) terminology standards. We have mutually developed a process that allows NCVHS to discuss in open, interactive sessions CHI recommendations as part of the CHI Council acceptance process. The NCVHS has the following comments on the attached set of CHI domain area recommendations: • The NCVHS concurs with the CHI recommendations for Interventions and Procedures: Part B, Laboratory Test Order Names. • The NCVHS concurs with the CHI recommendations for the Medication Domain as modified in the attached document. We further note: o the need for additional funding for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to expedite the publication of a publicly available version of their Unique Ingredient Identifier (UNII) codes and to provide continued funding to maintain the UNII code standard; o that the dosage and administration sub-domain be investigated in the next phase of the CHI process; and o that the FDA National Drug Code (NDC) process be investigated and improvements identified be expeditiously pursued. • The NCVHS concurs with the CHI recommendations for the Immunization Domain as modified in the attached document. -
