Résumé
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) invites interested parties to participate in a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to establish a healthcare information system. The infrastructure will include application platform, application software, storage, human/computer interaction, and communication technologies. It will share medical information while maintaining confidentiality of patient data. Through the CRADA, called the ``Forum on Healthcare Information Technology Architecture Standards'', NIST will provide the mechanism for industry and users to resolve standards-related technical issues that currently inhibit deployment of medical information technology products. Parties interested in participating in the CRADA should be prepared to invest adequate resources in the collaboration and be firmly committed to the goal of rapid development and deployment of new healthcare information technology. The program will be within the scope and confines of The Federal Technology Transfer Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-502, 15 U.S.C. 3710a), which provides federal laboratories including NIST, with the authority to enter into cooperative research agreements
