Just saw my
third reference to the continuity of care record standard (which I hadn't heard of before seeing it referred to in an
epcrn demo--that system reportedly uses CCR to slurp data out of EMRs and into their federated databases).
(Not that I have my finger on the pulse of medical informatics or anything...)
Is anybody working on code for translating CCRs into i2b2 clinical research chart observations? It seems like that could be very useful...
Cheers,
