Join Civitas Networks for Health (Civitas), HL7 International (HL7), and AHIP for this in-depth discussion on the HL7 standards development process that enables easier and more efficient electronic health information exchange. HL7 experts will introduce HL7’s processes that guide and promote development of consensus-based health information technology standards, including many that support national and global interoperability goals. Participants will gain insight into how standard projects are initiated and managed, and what is involved from specification inception to widespread adoption.
