Overview

In light of the findings of the environmental scan, the HITO with the support of Health IT Advisory Council agreed to the formation of a time-limited, multi-stakeholder design group to discuss and prioritize a list of HIE use cases and HIE services that will bring the most value to the planning that will take place around shared infrastructure services in the state of Connecticut.

The purpose of this design group was to:

1. To develop use cases that align with Council recommendations
2. To establish value propositions to prioritize the use cases
3. To validate high-level functional requirements for prioritized use cases
4. To provide recommendations on “buy vs. build” and “federated vs. central” shared infrastructural services 

More information regarding the process and charge of this design group can be found in the project charter, here.
