Privacy and Security Solutions for Interoperable Health Information Exchange: Phase II WebEx
Thursday 2/21 @1:00pm - 2:30pm
Hosted by AHRQ NRC - contact this wiki's administrator if you are interested in attending this WebEx at HPIO's offices.



The HISPC contract calls on the participating states to bring together people from diverse stakeholder groups to:


1) assess organization-level business policies, practices and state laws that affect health information exchange within the state
2) work closely with RTI, NGA, and other states and territories to exchange information and experiences regarding interoperable health information exchange barriers and best practices
3) identify and propose practical solutions that protect privacy and security of health information exchange and permit interoperable health information exchange
4) develop plans to implement solutions within the state and, if applicable, at the federal level.

Phase 2 is complete; it was a six month implementation extension process
