Home » Interoperability Matters » Information Sharing Workgroup » Definition of Electronic Health Information (EHI) and Designated Record Set (DRS) Task Group
Experts across a wide range stakeholders types assembled to facilitate a constructive information sharing dialogue.
This Task Group will build on the work started by AHIMA, EHRA, and AMIA to better understand the scope of EHI that must be included in a response to a request under information blocking, including defining what data elements and types are included in the definition of DRS, as well as identifying operational approaches from varying perspectives (e.g., the data elements that must be supported by developers).
