Direct Project - home. E2369 - 05e1 Standard Specification for Continuity of Care Record (CCR) Data Architecture Technical Note. Healthcare Information Technology Standards Panel. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Healthcare Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP) was created in 2005 as part of efforts by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC, part of the United States Department of Health and Human Services) to promote interoperability in health care by harmonizing health information technology standards. HITSP is chaired by John Halamka, MD, CIO of Harvard Medical School.
Membership[edit] Membership is by organization and there is currently no cost to join. Volunteers commit time to working on standards harmonization efforts as prioritized by the American Health Information Community (AHIC). Goals[edit] HITSP is generally organized around Use Cases, which are profiles of specific interoperability needs that have been identified by AHIC as being important national priorities. The 2007 Use Cases are: See also[edit] Health care in the United States External links[edit] IS 158 - Clinical Research. IS 107 - EHR-Centric. IS 98 - Medical Home. IS 92 - Newborn Screening.
