ONC, along with the HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), released the Precision Medicine Initiative (PMI) Security Principles Implementation Guide. The guide is designed to help organizations adapt PMI data security principles to their own environment and security challenges. This new guide supports the final PMI Data Security Policy Principles and Framework, which provides a framework that research organizations can use to protect participant data and secure the systems that underpin precision medicine research.

Federal agencies are working to advance consumer access, sharing, and use of health information. This includes initiatives like the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Blue Button on FHIR, which can improve Medicare beneficiary access to their health information. The mission of the project is to enhance CMS’ current Blue Button service to provide an Application Programming Interface (API) so beneficiaries can connect their Medicare claims data to applications, services, and research programs they trust.
