The appropriate representation of clinical knowledge requires several integrated methods. CQL addresses only decision logic, thus, its relationship and integration with BPM+ is essential for reusing and creating clinical pathways. Given the significant uptake of CQL in the healthcare community, the integration of CQL with BPM+ would expand the representation of CPG with BPM+; this in turn will improve access to quality clinical pathways.
Some questions VA is seeking answers to include: How can CQL be integrated (challenges and method) with BPM+? What is the appropriate use of CQL verses DMN? How should CQL and DMN be used together? Under what conditions should CQL verses DMN be used. What are the potential benefits of using CQL with BPM+? What are the potential gaps and issues integrating CQL with BPM+? Is it possible to translate CQL to DMN and DMN to CQL without lose? Where should the VA start to develop and demonstrate a minimum viable product (MVP) for integrating CQL into BPM+?
The Contractor shall deliver a briefing to VA, along with a PowerPoint Presentation to include answers to the following questions.
Deliverables:
- PowerPoint presentation on recommendations on how CQL can be used with BPM+ (approximately 5 slides)
- Power point presentation on potential steps going forward for the integration of CQL with BPM+ (approximately 3 slides).
- Briefing and presentation to be delivered at the Object Management Group (OMG) meeting September 23, 2019…
Time Box:
VA anticipates 50-hour study iterations followed by a one (1) day debrief presentation at the OMG meetings to be sufficient.
