Participating in a ballot – HL7 Canada Members

  • For each ballot cycle, the HL7 Canada Council Chair will create a package with all ballots along with a comment spreadsheet for each item. The ballot package will be announced in the HL7 Canada Community forum and the package will be made available for download from the Documents tab.
  • Submit your ballot comment spreadsheet by uploading it into Documents tab in the HL7 Canada Community and replying to the most current ballot forum post.
  • You may submit a ballot comment spreadsheet as many times as you like for each ballot pool up to the Canadian closing date. However, please note that your new submission will overwrite your old submission file.
  • All comments submitted by HL7 Canada members will be consolidated into a single spreadsheet. The HL7 Canada Council will meet to review comments and decide how to vote and the voting members will vote as a block. If there are no comments received for a ballot, the vote will be registered as Abstain.
