No, there is no tracking of who downloads the WEDI SNIP white papers, since
there is no registration required to access the papers.  However, in the
discussion threads, you can see who commented on the documents.

We can certainly discuss this.  I'll mention it at the next Steering
Committee meeting.

DAve,

As far as I know, no metrics are kept at this point.  Does anyone know
different?

John,
Has the WEDI board ever discussed getting some metrics of who looks at
the various White papers including testing and certification?  The
simplest being a counter to a free registration process similar to what
WPC uses.  It would be interesting to get some metrics.

Subject: Testing White Paper Updates and Use of Listserv

Hello everyone,

Sue and I wanted to take a few moments and express our concern as to the
recent email topic of the Testing and Certification White Paper and the
use
of this listserv.  First, the only manner in which the white paper gets
updated is through consensus of the Testing SWG and all of its members.
Each and every iteration of the paper has been emailed to all members of
the listserv and comments have been discussed during our meetings.  The
group agrees as a whole as to what should be included in the white paper
updates.  We try to make a concentrated effort to ensure that no one on
the
conference call or the listserv has any major disagreements with the
content of the paper and are open to suggestions/ideas for improvement.
Once it has consensus of our group, it is then escalated to the
Transactions Workgroup co-chairs and then to the Steering Committee.
They
also help ensure that we remain on track and as neutral as possible.

The participation level in our Testing SWG calls has increased
significantly in the last few months.  This is GOODNESS for our group
and
for the industry.   We do our best to listen to everyone's views and
opinions and use group majority consensus before publishing a new
version
of the paper.  We truly believe that the paper continues to improve with
each iteration and that it will continue to do so.

However, the paper is only as valuable as those who contribute to it. We
would like to express our thanks to each and every person who has
contributed to the paper itself and the thought processes behind each
update.  We, as co-chairs, need for this contribution to continue on an
ongoing basis.  Because of this, please offer up any ideas that you may
have for the improvement of the paper or for any other subject matter.
However, we need to focus on the issues facing us and not on any
personal
opinions on what has happened in the past.

The bottom line is that if you have suggestions for improvements in any
of
our endevors, please bring them to our attention.  However, stick to the
issue itself and how we can resolve it or develop best practices to
assist
others in its resolution.  The knowledge and experience that is
contained
within the members of our group is crucial to the success of
implementing
HIPAA and its regulations across the industry.   We need to continue to
use
this synergy to assist the industry as a whole.  As a result, if you do
not
agree with something that is in the white paper, join our group and make
your opinion known in a polite and professional manner.  We are more
than
willing to listen.  That is the only way this group will succeed in its
mission.

Sue and John
