HITAC releases draft of interoperability standards report

The federal Health IT Advisory Committee's Interoperability Standards Priorities Task Force presented a draft of its recommendations for ONC's Interoperability Standards Advisory during a Sept. 17 task force meeting.

The annual report serves as the main health IT source on interoperability and helps support ONC's efforts to implement provisions of the 21st Century Cures Act.

The draft calls for the following data-sharing areas to be prioritized: consistently encoding tests and their results, standardized consolidated clinical document architecture and clinician-to-clinician messaging.

The public comment period on ONC's 2020 edition of the Interoperability Standards Advisory is open until Sept. 23.
