Return to the HL7 Technical Committee Wiki

Welcome to the HL7 Clinical Interoperability Council Wiki!

The CIC held its first meeting at the WGM in Cologne (May 2007). There has been significant discussion and interest thus far, and this wiki page is for facilitation of ongoing discussions and related activities.

The Clinical Interoperability Council(CIC) Mission:

This Council provides the standards development framework, organizational processes and forums to collaborate with the clinical community to define content, flow and other domain requirements necessary to the development of robust health data standards. The Council will provide mechanism for clinical domains to develop common approaches to standards-related activities and form consensus on issues of interest among multiple groups. This Council will be unique to Health Level Seven in that the focus is on the clinical content, not the technology of the standards.

Co-chairs (interim):

• Ed Hammond
• Bron Kisler
• Brian McCourt
