HIMSS Standards Task Force

The HIMSS Standards Task Force is a group of experts focused on developing and promoting standards for health information technology (IT). Their goal is to ensure that different health systems and electronic health records can work together smoothly, securely, and efficiently. By creating common guidelines and best practices, they help healthcare providers share accurate patient information, improve care quality, and advance innovation in health IT. Think of them as setting the rules and frameworks that enable hospitals, clinics, and software systems to communicate effectively and reliably.
