Health IT czar issues health network RFI

The Health and Human Services Department is looking to industry for help on electronic health records and health systems interoperability.

“With the exception of a few isolated regional projects, the United States does not currently have meaningful health information interoperability capabilities,” said Dr. David Brailer, the national health IT coordinator.

Brailer posted a Federal Register request for information today on how to achieve interoperable health e-records and other technologies.
