Public Health Case Reporting Interoperability Specification (HITSP IS11)

The Public Health Case Reporting Interoperability Specification supports the bi-directional information exchanges of the Public Health Case Reporting process. It focuses on enabling more efficient data capture at the point of care while allowing for optimizing the information delivery format and content allowing for current SDO efforts to be finalized. In the absence of standards in structured content and associated Clinical Decision Support for alerts and information reporting criteria, this Interoperability Specification provides options for the secure communication of basic presentation preserving content to better automate the current paper-based information flows.
