Ecosystem

Be part of the ecosystem announcement from the Direct Project. Please let the Communications Workgroup know of existing and planned services and solutions that are leveraging the Direct Project. Contact Rich Elmore for more on this announcement.

Specifications

On March 21 there is an NHIN University Direct Project event (National eHealth Collaborative). Tied in with the NHIN University and the March HIT Standards Committee meeting, the Communications Workgroup will have an announcement around the Direct Project specifications and compliance. Contact Janet Campbell if you want to participate.

Attendance Tracker for Workgroup meetings

In order to streamline attendance tracking for each workgroup, there is a new form at the bottom of each workgroup page that participants should use to "sign in" at the start of each workgroup call. If you are not at a computer during the call, the workgroup lead will ask that you state your name and organization at the start of the call to be sure your attendance is recorded. Click here to access the form for the Communications workgroup ONLY. For other workgroups' attendance forms, see the link on the respective landing pages.


Purpose and Goals

The goal of the Communication workgroup is to provide clarity about what the Direct Project is and how it fits into the health information and transformation ecosystem. Key audiences include State HIEs, RECs, HIOs, health systems, providers, and the larger general health community and media. Foundational work on the Direct Project Overview has been developed by the Documentation and Testing Workgroup. The workgroup will develop:

  • Materials tailored for communication to each audience (press release, presentations, multi-media)
  • Outreach / communication plan
  • Plan execution


All messaging and materials are developed by individuals participating in the Direct Project and do NOT necessarily represent the views of ONC.

Deliverables Up for Consensus




Consensus Approved Deliverables

The Rebranding initiative is now over. The project's name will be the Direct Project.
Direct Project Overview Presentation is under review by the Implementation Group.
