Any chance you can elaborate with further technical details? Ideally, supply 
enough information that someone could reproduce your work. Can you share the 
SAS code that goes from Mini-Sentinel to i2b2? Or do you have any design 
documentation for it?

Or just elaborate on the experience. When did you start on the Mini-Sentinel to 
i2b2 work? How many person-months of effort would you estimate it took? What 
were the major challenges? etc.

Summary from Marshfield, with elaboration on #3 as requested by Dan on the call 
earlier today:


1.     Infrastructure:

a.     I2b2: upgraded to v1.6.9; debating v1.7.

b.     SHRINE: Set up v1.10, but plan to convert to v1.15 (or v1.16?) based on 
the demo Phillip gave of the metadata mapping capabilities.

2.     Refreshes:

a.     Working on automation; historically this effort has been manual, because 
we’re typically adding several new data sources that result in quite a bit of 
QA/troubleshooting.

3.     Data sources/population:

a.     Marshfield has unique challenges: 20+ year old proprietary EHR, health 
plan data, etc.; we’re also part of the Cancer Research Network and 
Mini-Sentinel.

b.     The latter two are multi-site networks with standard data models. We 
have SAS code (I think) that transforms and populates those models from our 
data warehouse tables. There are defined populations associated with each.

c.     As part of recent efforts to increase our GPC/i2b2 population, and 
switch from a Dental focus to something more global (ticket 
#36<https://informatics.gpcnetwork.org/trac/Project/ticket/36>), we converted 
our source from the data warehouse to the pre-processed Mini-Sentinel tables. 
This gives us QA for free.

d.     RxNorm: As part of a separate project, we’ve used MedEx to map as many 
of our drugs--orders, NLP mined old orders, and fills--as possible to RxNorm.

e.     NAACCR: working on pulling this to integrate. We have access, just are 
working through how to understand, manipulate, and load those sources.

4.     PopMedNet: working on establishing the GPC node.

Thanks,
Laurel

What are the main (informatics related) things going on at your site?

Bonus points for letting everybody know by email before tomorrow's call.

Otherwise, we'll talk about it then.

The work by site 
list<https://informatics.gpcnetwork.org/trac/Project/wiki/DevTeams#WorkBySite> 
is getting a little stale; here's hoping we can update it.
