Hi Silje,

I had a look at the website - it doesn't seem as if anyone is using CAMSS much, if we believe this page, which contains CAMSS assessments <https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/community/camss/og_page/camss-assessments>, none of which are health related. On this page <https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/community/camss/og_page/list-standards>there is a much larger list of 'recommended' standards which are all generic (PDF, GIF and so on) - I don't know what use this is.

This page <https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/community/camss/wiki/camss-05-detailed-camss-criteria>has a long page of assessment criteria, which seem mostly reasonable to me, but are will probably miss what I would consider the most important criterion for value - longevity. I personally think longevity is ultimately based on semantic scalability (lack of other things will also kill it, like lack of community, implementations etc). See here <http://wolandscat.net/health-informatics/desiderata-for-successful-e-health-standards/>for my set of criteria.

I also don't think that compatibility with other standards is necessarily a useful criterion - it depends on whether those other standards are in use and are themselves delivering value or just getting in the way.

But overall the assessment tool seems OK. What I can't see is any example of where it has been applied to an e-health standard.

Hi guys,

As part of a standards assessment project initiated by the Norwegian Directorate of Health, several health IT standards will be assessed using CAMSS (https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/node/66790). Have anyone done a CAMSS assessment of the openEHR specifications? If so, would it be possible to share the results?

Kind regards,
