4 The American Health Information Community
Federal Advisory Committee appointed and chaired by Secretary Leavitt Nine public sector and eight private sector appointees Initial recommendations: Prioritize Health IT initiatives Identify breakthrough opportunities including: Biosurveillance Consumer empowerment Electronic health records Chronic care monitoring Ensure privacy and security protections Harmonize industry-wide health IT standards Create an internet-based nationwide health IT architecture
