Focus of the Projectathon March 2023
...
The Projectathon 2023 will focus focused on interoperability demonstrations based on the pan-Canadian Patient Summary (PS-CA v1.0.0 TI) and the associated pan-Canadian FHIR Exchange (CA:FeX v1.0.0 TI) specifications, both ready for trial implementation. The PS-CA specification defines the building blocks to create and share patient summaries. The CA:FeX specification promotes FHIR RESTful exchange patterns that can be applied on top of existing non-FHIR infrastructure and FHIR servers. These two specification packages support secure exchange of a patient’s health summary document, are represented using the normative release 4.0.1 of the HL7® FHIR® standard, and are closely aligned to the International Patient Summary specification (IPS).

Testing & Tools Overview
...
Vendors will have had an opportunity to test and demonstrate capabilities in two distinct areas of the specification:
...
The PS-CA FHIR Content Data model will be was tested using a combination of test data and validation tooling.
- The PS-ON specifications are very closely aligned to the PS-CA and should be supported by minimal configuration of capability in the vendor systems.
- The test cases will highlight where configuration is needed and test that it is applied properly, based on claimed vendor conformance.
- The Projectathon will offer offered an assessment of the FHIR document against the ON implementation guidance as represented in the PS-ON specifications, in addition to the PS-CA.
2. Secure, exchange transactions
This area of testing will focus focused on validating the recommended secure exchange methods of the FHIR summary document as presented in the Reference Architecture (RA v0.1.1 DFT), linked to the PS-CA and CA:FeX specifications.
...
Training, Tools & Support Overview
...
Infoway will provide provided training webinars to support the use of the tools and integrations with the Gazelle test framework. Once registered, vendors will be were provided with early access to the Gazelle platform for self / pre-Projectathon testing. In addition to Gazelle, Infoway will provide provided a number of testing tools, including Simulators, Emulators and Validators to support the exchange patterns listed in the PS-CA specification. A test package will be was provided including scenarios for single tests and group testing, along with data set to support document format and content validation for the PS-CA and PS-ON.

Projectathon Results
...
Projectathon results will be were collected into a report on the individual and group actor transactions that vendor systems have proven capabilities in supporting.
- This feature capability assessment can will support jurisdictional integration efforts in assessing vendors conformance to their respective deployment models.
- Results can be analyzed from the relevant actor/transactions that align to local architectures.
