Policy Framework for Standardization, Health IT Standards and Standardization Process
“Today, more than ever, standards are an imperative undertaking. Standards are the building blocks for innovation and competitiveness. Our nation’s ability to compete and lead in a rapidly changing global economy is closely related to our leadership in the development and effective use of standards and standardization processes. Standards provide the common language that keeps domestic and international trade flowing. It is difficult to overestimate their critical value to both the U.S. and global economy. “
— Patrick Gallagher, Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, 2010

A series of statutes, regulations, and administrative orders comprise the legal framework that defines the Federal government’s use of standards, and its participation in the development of standards.
Statutes and administrative requirements that contain provisions addressing standardization policies, standards development, use, and related government engagement include:
• National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) of 19951
• Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-119 of 19982
• Federal Engagement in Standards Activities to Address National Priorities. Background and Proposed Policy Recommendations. Subcommittee on Standards, National Science and Technology Council of 20113
• Principles for Federal Engagement in Standards Activities to Address National Priorities. Memorandum from Executive Office of the President for Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies of 20124

National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA)
1. The NTTAA’s goal is to adopt voluntary consensus standards, wherever possible, in lieu of creating proprietary, non-consensus standards by federal agencies 1
2. NTTAA directs: federal agencies with respect to their use of and participation in the development
of voluntary consensus standards the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to coordinate
the standards and conformity assessment activities of federal agencies, as well as state and local governments with the private sector in order to reduce unnecessary duplication and complexity of conformity assessment schemes
3. Progress towards accomplishing NTTAA aims is summarized in annual reports prepared by NIST, in collaboration with the Interagency Committee on Standards Policy (ICSP).

OMB Circular No A-119Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities
The OMB Circular No A-119 for Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies:
1. Guides Federal agencies on the NTTAA implementation2. Establishes policies on Federal use and development of voluntary consensus standards and on
conformity assessment activities3. Establishes reporting requirements, and authorized the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) to coordinate conformity assessment activities of the agencies4. Issues guidance on responsibilities of Agency Heads and Agency Standard Executives in
development and implementation of standards.

Guidance on National Standardization Policies1. Federal executive departments and administrative agencies write standardization policies and
regulations to implement the authority of laws. They act in a scope that is authorized by Congress.
2. The Office of the President, as authorized by Congress, • guides the U.S. government to coordinate agency standards activities and engagement• recognizing the integrity of the existing U.S. standards process, guides agencies on their roles
as active participant in standards development and as user of the standards for regulation and procurement 1,2
3. Government Leadership in Select Technology Areas.• “In a limited number of specific cases, such as cybersecurity, health IT, smart grid and public
safety communications, the Federal government has taken on a leadership role in private sector standards development.”3
• Based on the federal regulatory guidance, federal agencies, acting in a scope of their authority, shell coordinate and lead development of data standards that used in health IT area.
• CDC takes a leadership in health IT standardization in a scope of it’s authority “to protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S..”4

Adverse Event Reporting
Admin Data Reporting
Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI)
Infectious Diseases: Initial Case and Lab Reporting
Cancer
Vital Records

Public Health Reporting Initiative (PHRI) Standards and Interoperability (S&I) Framework, Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT: URL: http://wiki.siframework.org/
Charter/Scope Summary
The PHRI develops and implements a standardized approach to electronic public health reporting from EHR systems to local, state and federal public health programs that addresses the needs of various reporting use cases, with the long-term goal of reducing the difficulty (to both providers and public health agencies) of implementing electronic versions of the broad spectrum of public health reporting.
This is a Community-Lead InitiativeLeadership Team• Co-leads: Dina Dickerson, Riki Merrick, Anna Orlova,
and Walter Suarez
Current Status
• Artifacts completed by the PHRI Phase I (September 2011-June 2013) to date include:
– Public Health Reporting Initiative Reference Implementation Framework – Reference document on interoperability standards for several public
health programs
– PHRI CDA Guide - Specifies CDA structure for public health report for Communicable Diseases and Adverse Events
– PHRI Standards Testing and Pilots Demonstration – A PHRI web page with documentation on testing or pilot projects demonstrating the use of
interoperability standards referenced in the PHRI Reference Implementation Framework
• In June-September 2013, PHRI continued coordinating its work with the Structured Data Capture Public Health Tiger Team (SDC PH Tiger Team) to plan
SDC pilot projects for three domains/programs included in the PHRI Reference Implementation Framework: Early Hearing Detection and Intervention
(EHDI), Cancer Surveillance, and Communicable Disease Reporting. EHDI (a collaboration between PHRI and CDC EHDI Program) was selected as the
top program by the SDC PH Tiger Team to move forward piloting.
• On September 25, 2013 PHRI started Phase II (September 2013 – August 2014) that will focus on
– the analysis of new user stories for public health reporting and bi-directional data exchange between clinicians and public health
– harmonization of data sets across these stories
– analysis and harmonization of standards to support data exchanges under these stories and
– educational campaign Wednesdays with PHRI to raise awareness of the use of interoperability standards in the different areas of Public Health
and the intersection with other areas of healthcare
• PHRI will continue collaborative support for the SDC PH Tiger Team and will also reach out to other S&I Initiatives in support of their work related to public
health.

Why consolidate into PHTT?
• Best use of resources and time• Assurance that these initiatives will have Public Health

S&I Framework Overview
• Specific health interoperability initiatives guide the design and development of a fully integrated and connected health information system.
• An S&I Initiative focuses on a single challenge with a set of value-creating goals and outcomes, and the development of content, technical specifications and reusable tools and services.
• Call for Participation: The overall success of the S&I Framework is dependent upon volunteer experts from the healthcare industry and we welcome any interested party to get involved in S&I Framework Initiatives, participate in discussions and provide comments and feedback by joining the Wiki: http://wiki.siframework.org
28
Structured Data Capture Data Architecture
Infrastructure will consist of four new standards that will enable EHRs to capture and store structured data:1. Standard for the CDEs that will be used to fill the specified
forms or templates
2. Standard for the structure or design of the form or template (container)
3. Standard for how EHRs interact with the form or template
4. Standard to auto-populate form or template
30
• Standards will facilitate the collection of data so that any researcher, clinical trial sponsor, reporting and/or oversight entity can access and interpret the data in electronic format
• Will leverage existing standards such as XML and CDISC Retrieve Form for Data Capture (RFD)
