Office of National Coordinator: Interoperability Standards Advisory

June 5, 2017

The Interoperability Standards Advisory (ISA) represents the model by which the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) will coordinate the identification, assessment, and public awareness of interoperability standards and implementation specifications that can be used by the health care industry to address specific interoperability needs including, but not limited to, interoperability for clinical, public health, and research purposes. ONC encourages all stakeholders to implement and use the standards and implementation specifications identified in the ISA as applicable to the specific interoperability needs they seek to address. Furthermore, ONC encourages further pilot testing and industry experience to be sought with respect to standards and implementation specifications identified as “emerging” in the ISA. Stakeholders are encouraged to review the content online and comment to provide feedback to ensure the ISA is as accurate as possible. Visit https://www.healthit.gov/isa/ to view the latest content. For a static version (for contracts, procurement, etc.), the 2017 Reference Edition is also available as PDF file.
