Coordinator on a policy framework for the
development and adoption of a nationwide

the Federal Health IT Strategic Plan and that
includes recommendations on the areas in
which standards, implementation
specifications, and certification criteria are
needed.
Date and Time: The meeting will be held
on February 25, 2010, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m./

judy.sparrow@hhs.gov Please call the contact
person for up-to-date information on this
meeting. A notice in the Federal Register
about last minute modifications that impact
a previously announced advisory committee
meeting cannot always be published quickly
enough to provide timely notice.
Agenda: The workgroup will be discussing
patient-safety issues related to the use of
electronic health records—both risks and
approaches to mitigating those risks. The
workgroup will be hearing testimony from
stakeholder groups. ONC intends to make
background material available to the public
no later than two (2) business days prior to
the meeting. If ONC is unable to post the
background material on its Web site prior to
the meeting, it will be made publicly
available at the location of the advisory
committee meeting, and the background
material will be posted on ONC’s Web site
after the meeting, at https://healthit.hhs.gov.
Procedure: Interested persons may present
data, information, or views, orally or in
writing, on issues pending before the
committee. Written submissions may be
made to the contact person on or before
February 18, 2010. Oral comments from the
public will be scheduled between
approximately 2 p.m. and 3 p.m./Eastern
Time. Time allotted for each presentation
will be limited to three minutes. If the
number of speakers requesting to comment is
greater than can be reasonably
accommodated during the scheduled open
public hearing session, ONC will take written
comments after the meeting until close of
business on that day.
Persons attending advisory committee
meetings are advised that the agency is not
responsible for providing access to electrical
outlets.
ONC welcomes the attendance of the
public at its advisory committee meetings.
Seating is limited at the location, and ONC
will make every effort to accommodate
persons with physical disabilities or special
needs. If you require special accommodations
due to a disability, please contact Judy
Sparrow at least seven (7) days in advance of
the meeting.
ONC is committed to the orderly conduct
of its advisory committee meetings. Please
