Please also comment on when this could be accomplished. • How can interoperability be achieved between PHRs and all of the providers from whom the patient receives health care services? Please also comment on when this could be accomplished. • Should the market be left alone for innovation or could vendors compete around a minimum criteria set for PHRs? • If you think certification is necessary for privacy and security, interoperability or a minimum set of functionality, is the timing important and is there a sense of urgency given the diversity, complexity and mobility of today’s population and the demand for availability of PHRs at the point of care?
