put forth in the report for full
Committee deliberation.
The Subcommittee on Standards will
review the timeline of its ICD–11
evaluation project and discuss any
refinements that result from exploration
of existing research on the impact of the
transition to ICD–10, ICD–10–CM, and
ICD–10–PCS. The Subcommittee will
update the full Committee regarding

ICD–10 to ICD–11 for mortality and
morbidity. The Subcommittee will
report on continued progress on the

evaluating the function and purpose of
the Designated Standards Maintenance
Organizations (DSMOs) in light of
changes in the health care standards
environment and the need for
harmonization of administrative and
clinical standards. Finally, the
Subcommittee anticipates continuing
discussion and possible activities in

reduction through convergence of
administrative and clinical data
standards using the prior authorization
transaction as a use-case.
The Subcommittee on Population
Health will provide an update on its
work to address community data needs,
including use-cases, for the full
Committee to consider providing as

Committee will further refine the
remainder of its 2019 workplan and
discuss potential options moving into
fiscal year 2020.
The times and topics are subject to
change. Please refer to the posted
