Standards groups join forces for interoperability
EHR Connection, March 14, 2005
Object Management Group and Health Level Seven, standards-development organizations, partnered to create standards to promote EHR interoperability, Health Data Management (HDM) reports.
Once the organizations determine how to standardize EHRs, HL7 then will "elaborate the business functional needs, allocate functions to services, and provide information modeling and content," HDM reports. OMG will expand the business requirements into software architecture specifications and components.
The groups, meeting on April 5, plan to have initial standards prepared for testing and validation by the end of this year.
