The Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT), the Healthcare IT Standards Panel, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology have created a Web site that provides resources and information for organizations interested in having systems that conform to National Health Information Network (NHIN) standards.
The Health Information Technology Implementation Testing and Support Web site, http://xreg2.nist.gov/hit-testing/, provides information about the initiatives behind the nationwide HIT infrastructure, and includes interoperability specifications, standards, and test resources.
