CMS/ONC Joint Webinar on Accelerating Health Information Exchange

Dear Colleague,

Please join me on Wednesday, August 7 from 8:30 am – 9:30 am EDT for a discussion on how ONC and CMS will be taking actions to accelerate interoperability and health information exchange. I am delighted that Patrick Conway, MD, Director and CMS Chief Medical Officer, Center for Clinical Standards and Quality, and Acting Director for the CMS Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, and Cindy Mann, Director, CMS Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services, will join us in discussing our response to the public input we received in our joint Request for Information https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2013/03/07/2013-05266/advancing-interoperability-and-health-information-exchange.

We received a lot of thoughtful input on how HHS can advance interoperability and exchange. We look forward to sharing our overall strategy on how we’ll be taking a comprehensive approach to making HIE a part of all our delivery and payment reform efforts moving forward.
