Current Work Groups

Work Groups are made up of members of the Connecting for Health Steering Group and outside experts. Connecting for Health has convened two new national panels to recommend policies for networking PHRs with institutional health data sources:

• The Connecting for Health Work Group on Consumer Authentication Policies for Networked Personal Health Information that will develop recommendations for confirming the identity of individual consumers on a health information network.
• The Connecting for Health Work Group on Consumer Access Policies for Networked Personal Health Information that will recommend other critical policies such as privacy, consent, secondary uses, breach, notification, etc.
