The goal of this project is to build data infrastructure for conducting patient-centered outcomes research using data derived from the delivery of health care in routine clinical settings. These data are collectively referred to as observational data. The sources of these data may include, but are not limited to insurance billing claims, electronic health records (EHRs), and patient registries. The Common Data Model (CDM) organizes data into a standard structure, which may differ across networks. This project intends to harmonize several existing CDMs in order to support research and analyses across multiple data networks. The aim is to advance the utility of data and its interoperability across networks to facilitate patient-centered outcomes research. The enhanced data infrastructure created through this project will have the capacity to support evidence generation on patient-centered outcomes that can inform regulatory and clinical decision making within federal programs.

This working group was established to promote the dissemination of the NIMHD HDPulse interventions portal and its adaptation to include the HHS Office of Minority Health's (OMH) evidence-informed practices. Building on OMH's efforts to disseminate and spread evidence-informed practices and NIMHD's development and maintenance of HDPulse, this working group is expected to achieve the following outcomes: Identification and dissemination of health equity-promoting evidence-informed practices, particularly those focused on addressing racial and ethnic health disparities, through HDPulse Increased awareness and utilization of HDPulse, including health equity-promoting interventions in the Interventions Portal, by government agencies, organizations, and practitioners serving racial and ethnic minority populations

The Health Information Technology Advisory Committee (HITAC) was established by the 21st Century Cures Act (P.L. 114-255) and is governed by the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), P.L. 92-463, as amended, 5 U.S.C. App. 2, which sets forth standards for the formation and use of federal advisory committees. The HITAC will recommend to the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology policies, standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria relating to the implementation of a health information technology infrastructure, nationally and locally, that advances the electronic access, exchange, and use of health information. HITAC unifies the roles of, and replaces, the Health Information Technology Policy Committee and the Health Information Technology Standards Committee that were in existence before the date of the enactment of the 21st Century Cures Act. HITAC replaced the Content Standards Workgroup of the Health Information Technology (HIT) Standards Committee, which was part of the Federal Advisory Committee that was charged with making recommendations to ONC on standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria for the electronic exchange and use of health information.
