HealthIT.gov Banner

IN THIS ISSUE

New Interoperability Measurement Report Available from National Quality Forum
How do we measure interoperability? And how do we understand the impacts of information flow?  ONC proposed that the National Quality Forum (NQF) develop a measurement framework that would identify key concepts critical to measuring interoperability and its impacts. NQF convened a committee consisting of stakeholders across the health care spectrum including health IT to develop the framework. Read the final report that can be used as a foundation to select and develop measures.
