- Standards Committee Meets to Identify Standards for Meaningful Use
- I spent a good 20 minutes on this slide showing how we got to meaningful use today. Going through this history you can see how
- The IOM 8 functional areas are tied to the HL7 EHR Functional Model, CCHIT Certification Critiera, and the ARRA 8.
- The National Health Information Infrastructure became the National Health Information Network
- Programs such as CHI and HISB were rolled into ANSI/HITSP.
- Executive Order 13335 and 13410 become keys points in ARRA and HITECH, to the point of using almost the same language.
- You might find it instructive to go back through some of this historical material for yourself and see where we've been and how it's influenced (or failed to influence) where we are today, and more importantly, where we will be tomorrow. I reread various pieces of these documents today, and found the review to be very illuminating.

P.S. One of the students remarked during her presentation on ICD-10 that followed mine that "... the costs exceed $1B dollars, but that doesn't sound like so much after hearing Keith speak." I'm not sure what she meant, but I thought it significant enough editorially to include the comment here.
Great historical perspective - thanks for providing this Keith
