A Fishbone document is used to explore the potential root causes of a problem.

Exploration of conformance, constraints, and message profiles

Immunization Evaluation and Forecasting; how it works, how forecasting functionality is implemented, and how the rules are maintained/tested in an IIS

Part of Fundamentals of IIS series along with Data Quality and Interoperability. Goes over the HL7 V2 standard, why it's used for immunization messaging, what the impacts are on IIS, and IIS responsibilities related to HL7.

Part of Fundamentals of IIS series along with Interoperability and HL7 Basics. Goes over key concepts related to the characteristics of IIS data quality, how it's measured, examples of issues, and strategies for improvements.

Part of Fundamentals of IIS series along with Data Quality and HL7 Basics. Goes over the concepts of data exchange between IIS and other systems.

This course provides information on the role and processes of laboratory informatics through exploration of the “life of a specimen” as a specimen moves through the laboratory. Topics covered include the roles of various personnel in the laboratory informatics enterprise, data relationships, data quality, and standards, and the generation and flow of information as a specimen progresses through the pre-analytic, analytic, and post-analytic phases.

This basic-level eLearning course provides an overview of the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) – also known as a Laboratory Information System – and other information systems that play a key role in laboratory informatics. Included in the course are explorations of LIMS functionality, the role of the LIMS in interoperability, various regulations and standards regarding information systems and laboratory data, and the steps in implementing a LIMS.

This course provides information on the role and processes of laboratory informatics through exploration of the “life of a result” as data and results move through the laboratory and outside the laboratory. Topics covered include characterization of the recipients of laboratory data, data and results storage, and the communication of data and results (especially electronically) to various stakeholders

This on-demand course provides an in-depth review of HL7 v2.5.1 unsolicited vaccination record update (aka VXU) messages and how they are used to exchange immunization information between immunization information systems (IIS) and other health information systems.

This guide provides an interactive learning opportunity to address the challenges faced by data modernization teams in implementing data governance. While originally developed for data modernization teams, the principles and tools in this guide can be applied more broadly to data governance projects throughout public health.

Reframing Public Health Informatics is a collection of evidence-based framing recommendations and sample communications designed to help the public health workforce talk about informatics—what it is, how it works, and why its contributions are so important to achieving the goal of improved population health.

The goal of this course is to help orient new informaticians to the HL7 V2 message structure and take a deep dive into message content.
