Fwd: This Thursday! Informational Call on the ONC EHR Reporting Program Request for Information
Hi All,
I thought I would pass
this along. I specifically looked at the Interoperability
Standards Advisory pdf to note that EDXL-HAVE and EDXL-TEP were
not listed. I know we're stretched, but it would be great if
someone, besides me, if I can spare the time, to check this
informational call and RFI. I'll try.
Cheers,
Rex
