During the Health IT Standards Committee meeting on Feb. 24 in Washington, D.C., the Clinical Operations Workgroup sought to gather comments on proposed recommendations on implementation specifications for content exchange, vocabulary and code set standards for the Interim Final Rule (IFR) of meaningful use.
A single implementation guide was proposed regarding the NCPDP SCRIPT, a standard for e-prescribing, HL7 version 2, the standard for the exchange, integration and retrieval of EHRs and HL7 Clinical Document Architecture, the standard for the specification of the encoding and structuring of clinical documents.
