Hi Thomas, thanks for your reply!

I don't have any say in which assessment criteria are used, unfortunately. I've 
seen your criteria, and agree they're more specifically applicable to e-health 
standards.

I'll probably need a lot of help answering and justifying the CAMSS questions, 
especially those regarding the governance of the specifications. I hope it's 
okay if I pose specific questions to this list.

Regards,
Silje

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,
