Clinical Decision Support Clinical Quality Language Seminar

Event Registration

Date

February 24, 2021 03:00pm - 05:00pm US/Eastern

Clinical Quality Language (CQL) is a high-level, domain-specific language focused on clinical quality improvement and targeted at measure and decision support artifact authors and implementers. CQL is a Health Level 7 (HL7) standard for the expression of clinical knowledge that can be used within a broad range of clinical domains, including Clinical Decision Support (CDS), and Clinical Quality Measurement (CQM). Clinical decision support solutions can leverage CQL to implement rules for clinical decision making. There are a variety of tools available to support development and implementation teams in the use of CQL for clinical decision support.

This seminar will focus on practical experience with these tools and feature a Q&A session about use of CQL standards within CDS application design.
