The US Government published (2005.12.23) a list of the 20 messaging and vocabulary standards that from now on will be used at the US Government funded health care information systems.
<br>
<br>The portfolio of 20 adopted standards will be used in all federal agencies implementing new, and to the extent possible, in modifying existing health information technology systems, as well as related business processes”
<br>
<br>These seem to be big news as this list has the potential to be the basis for further Health IT Interoperability initiatives.
<br>
<br>The main adoptees are: HL7 2.x, DICOM, SNOMED CT, LOINC and HIPAA (Trans. and Code Sets).
<br>
<br>The list may be freely downloaded from the US Gov. Printing Office.
<br>
<br>(The e-HealthExpert.org members will have to log into the e-HealthExpert.org site to be able to download a copy by following the "attachment"/"fr23de05-78.pdf" link presented bellow these lines.)
