In response to the ONC’s advance notice of proposed rulemaking for health information exchange metadata standards, CHIME wrote a statement requesting ONC develop and test the standards before considering further action. CHIME recommended ONC gather a volunteer network of technical experts from the Standards & Interoperability Framework to study metadata standards.
AHA has also called for testing of the metadata standards before they are put in place. They recommended the ONC provide evidence that the benefits of the standards would offset the costs of implementation. The AHA said the ONC should postpone any additional rulemaking until pilot tests have been conducted and evaluated.
