GoalGoal

Goal: (per last IHE Cardiology Planning Committee decision)

Develop a matrix to be displayed and highlighted at the ACC 2007 IHE Interoperability Showcase which will clearly illustrate to clinical users which vendors and which products have adopted and integrated IHE connectivity into their products, including releasing that software to the field.

Connectathon gold stars historyConnectathon gold stars history

Gold stars were previously awarded for the Connectathons and there was no incentive and no repercussions for not continuing to develop the IHE software into the General Release of a product.

Users were misled into thinking that a “gold star” meant the IHE connectivity was available in their product.

“Gold stars” and “black dots” have been used in the past and have connotations such that they should not be used again. Need new icons.

PC agreed to award “IHE connects” logo to sum of milestones
