HIMSS and OMG to collaborate on healthcare standards development

Chiropractic Economics November 7, 2011

Nov. 7, 2011 — Leaders of the computer industry standards organization OMG, and Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) a cause-based, not-for-profit organization exclusively focused on providing global leadership for the optimal use of information technology (IT) and management systems for the betterment of healthcare, have agreed to collaborate on several fronts, including standards development, conferences and resources such as whitepapers and webinars. OMG will become an Affiliate Member of HIMSS, and HIMSS will become a Domain Member of OMG. This collaboration will result in a new effort to deliver healthcare industry-specific guidance and specifications enabling the national vision of secure and seamless exchange of health information.

 

“I couldn’t be more excited about the emerging relationship with HIMSS. HIMSS’ impact and reach into the healthcare community is unprecedented, and OMG has a tremendous track record of producing practical, usable standards in dozens of vertical markets, including health. Working together is a natural, symbiotic relationship. We believe we can positively contribute to the HIMSS community, and look forward to closer collaboration to better meet the challenges faced within health and health IT,” said Ken Rubin, co-chair, Healthcare DTF at OMG.

“This collaboration is a perfect match, bringing together OMG’s ability to drive standards and HIMSS deep wealth of healthcare knowledge. I look forward to supporting this effort and the contributions we can make to the HIMSS community,” said Robert Lario, principal, Visumpoint, co-chair, Healthcare DTF at OMG.

“Integration and interoperability of healthcare information has been a HIMSS strategic priority over many years,” said Jim St.Clair, Senior Director, Interoperability and Standards, HIMSS. “This collaboration with OMG, in conjunction with our leadership in the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) USA, adds another pillar of support to this priority for 2012.”
