The Andover Working Groupaccelerating the implementation of standards
The Andover Working Group was formed with the objective to accelerate and broadly deliver standards-based solutions for healthcare which feature plug and play interoperability across the continuum of care. In this paper, organization and processes used by the Andover Working Group are discussed. A description of how multilateral message profiles, combined with object-oriented component middleware supporting application developments, systems integration and systems operation remove many of the barriers to deployment of systems of standards based applications is also given.
