About our Sponsors:

HL7 Standards

No matter your age, industry, or location, health care is a part of your life. While personal care is probably instilled in your daily routines, receiving health care involves a community. In the center are many well-educated professionals and leading-edge technologies which may – or may not – work well together. As an individual, citizen, and patient, you are in the middle of this environment.

HL7 Standards is a community focused on facilitating conversations about health care and technology. Some of it is technical; some of it is not. Discussing emerging practices and technologies, such as social media and personal health records, are an essential part of the discussion. All of us need to learn more about what it takes to enable the successful delivery and acceptance of care. HL7 Standards is one of the leaders in engaging these essential interactions within the health care community, offering insights, education, and as many resources as possible. Empowering patients is more than a goal; it's a mission.
