Assignment
The Interoperability Standards Advisory (ISA) is meant to serve at least the following purposes:
1. To provide the industry with a single, public list of the standards and implementation specifications that can best be used to address specific clinical health information interoperability needs. Currently, the ISA is focused on interoperability for sharing information between entities and not on intra-organizational uses.
2. To reflect the results of ongoing dialogue, debate, and consensus among industry stakeholders when more than one standard or implementation specification could be used to address a specific interoperability need, discussion will take place through the ISA public comments process. The web-version of the ISA will improve upon existing processes, making comments more transparent, and allowing for threaded discussions to promote further dialogue.
3. To document known limitations, preconditions, and dependencies as well as provide suggestions for security best practices in the form of security patterns for referenced standards and implementation specifications when they are used to address a specific clinical health IT interoperability need."
GROUP 4: From the many different standards listed in the Advisory, choose one that has not yet been posted and:
1. Put the Title of the standard in the Subject line for your posting.

1. What the standard is
2. What the standard is used for
3. Why it is important?
