Hi All Probably all of you have received an email from Patrick McLaughlin at the NLM regarding upcoming changes to the UMLS authentication they are going to support and to retire. This will have implications for all cTakes users in different ways depending on how cTakes is implemented in your community. To me, there were some ambiguities in his email regarding usage situations as a registered content provider that needed to be spelled out.
I was wondering if any of you have had further conversations with him which might clarify whether, for instance, users within a registered content provider installation would still need to be individually authenticated. Or on any other authentication scenario. I'm trying to contact him or his team at the moment to ask about our particular architecture. Regards, Peter
