Health IT Policy Committee and Health IT Standards Committee
The prior Health IT Policy Committee and Health IT Standards Committee have been replaced by the Health IT Advisory Committee.
The Health IT Policy Committee (HITPC) made recommendations to the National Coordinator for Health IT on a policy framework for the development and adoption of a nationwide health information infrastructure, including standards for the exchange of patient medical information. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) provided that the Health IT Policy Committee make recommendations on the areas in which standards, implementation specifications, and certifications criteria are needed.
The Health IT Standards Committee (HITSC) was charged with making recommendations to the National Coordinator for Health IT on standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria for the electronic exchange and use of health information. The Health IT Standards Committee focuses on the recommendations developed by the Health IT Policy Committee.
