DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND 

HUMAN SERVICES 

Office of the National Coordinator for 

Health Information Technology; Notice 

of Intent To Hold a Public Meeting To 

Share Information on Establishing an 

American Health Information 

Community Successor 

SUMMARY: On August 17, 2007, Secretary 

Leavitt will lead a public meeting to 

raise awareness of the implementation 

strategy for the AHIC successor and 

encourage collaboration. The AHIC is a 

federally-chartered advisory committee 

that provides input and 

recommendations to the Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS) on 

how to make health records digital and 

interoperable, and how to assure that 

the privacy and security of those records 

are protected. (Please visit http:// 

www.hhs.gov/healthit/community/ 

background/ for more information on 

the AHIC.) The AHIC charter specifies 

that the AHIC will develop and advance 

recommendations to the Secretary on a 

private-sector health information 

community initiative that will succeed 

the AHIC. The AHIC successor will 

bring together public and private, notfor-profit and for-profit entities that 

represent all sectors of the health 

community. This new public-private 

partnership will develop a unified 

approach to realize an effective, secure, 

interoperable nationwide health 

information system that improves the 

quality, safety, and efficiency of health 

care in the U.S. 

For the purposes of facilitating the 

establishment of the AHIC successor 

and convening a planning board, HHS 

will award a Cooperative Agreement 

that allows for substantial involvement 

by the Federal Government. Once a new 

legal entity is established and after 

certain conditions are met, HHS will 

support that entity through additional 

funding that will enable initial 

operations and transition of specific 

AHIC responsibilities by late Fall 2008. 

DATES: August 17, 2007, from 10 a.m. to 

12:30 p.m. (EDT); registration opens at 

9:30 a.m. 

ADDRESSES: Hubert H. Humphrey 

building (200 Independence Avenue, 

SW., Washington, DC 20201), 

Conference Room 800. 

A webcast of the public meeting will 

be available on the NIH Web site at: 

http://www.videocast.nih.gov/. 

For technical assistance with the 

webcast, please contact: Center for 

Information Technology, National 

Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland
