| About
| The American Health Information Community [AHIC] was chartered in 2005 by the United States Department of Health and Human Services [HHS] to advance efforts to have electronic health records for all Americans.
AHIC was chartered for 2 years with the option to renew for no more than 5 years. The intention is to replace AHIC with a private-sector health information community initiative that would set additional needed standards, certify new health information technology, and provide long-term governance for health care transformation.
All AHIC meetings are webcast.
