  • Id: smart.who.int.<ig_code>
  • Canonical url: http://smart.who.int/<ig_code>
  • Package id: smart.who.int.<ig_code>
  • Name: Machine-friendly <IgName> (i.e. no spaces, pascal-cased)
  • Title: User-friendly Ig Name (i.e. title-cased)
  • Status: draft initially
  • Version: 0.1.0 initially, see Versioning for more details on artifact versioning
  • Jurisdiction: Should be 001 from http://unstats.un.org/unsd/methods/m49/m49.htm for World (see https://www.hl7.org/fhir/valueset-jurisdiction.html)
  • Publisher: Set as appropriate for the publisher (i.e. steward) of the IG
  • ImplementationGuide resources SHALL conform to CRMIShareableImplementationGuide
  • Active, published ImplementationGuide resources SHALL conform to CRMIPublishableImplementationGuide
  • ImplementationGuide resources SHALL conform to CPGComputableGuideline

For National adaptations:

  • If the country or region has an an HL7 affiliate, the HL7 affiliate can include the smart guidelines in their publication process and use the defined conventions
    • Package id convention is defined locally, e.g. hl7.fhir.country.smart.xxx
  • If there is no affiliate or the affiliate declines, other organizations may fulfill that role
  • Jurisdiction should be adjusted
  • L3 authors should ensure that the content has some feedback mechanism.
