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

This document is a companion to Section 1D of the Building Blocks Guide. It describes the steps required for HL7 message definition and provides additional information on the tools and topics discussed in the Guide, including the Implementation Workbook and the Message Validation Template.

Healthcare organizations have many reasons for bulk-data export, such as populating a data warehouse for operational or clinical analytics, leveraging population health and decision support tools from external vendors, and submitting data to registries and regulatory agencies. Today, bulk export is often accomplished with proprietary pipelines, and data transfer operations frequently involve an engineering and field mapping project. Learn about an exciting new effort by SMART and HL7 to bring the FHIR standard to bear on these challenges of bulk-data export.

A fishbone diagram helps team members visually diagram a problem or condition's root causes, allowing them to truly diagnose the problem rather than focusing on symptoms.

In this presentation, we will be introducing the different HL7 product families that are used to exchange clinical data.
