The members of the Markle Connecting for Health Policy Subcommittee have accomplished an extraordinary task in less than a year’s time—the development of an evolving piece of work that can serve as the core of nationwide health information exchange—the policy components of the Markle Connecting for Health Common Framework for Private and Secure Health Information Exchange, published in 2006. During this time, we have been fortunate to work with respected experts in the fields of health, information technology, and privacy law, all of whom have contributed their time, energy, and expertise to a daunting enterprise. Our consultants and volunteers have worked long hours in meetings and conference calls to negotiate the intricacies of such issues as privacy, security, authentication, notification, and consent in health information exchange. We offer them our heartfelt thanks for taking on this journey with us, and look forward to the remaining work ahead.

In addition, we would like to offer special thanks to the volunteers and consultants who authored the initial drafts of this body of work—their hard work created a strong foundation upon which to focus the Subcommittee’s deliberations: Stefaan Verhulst, Clay Shirky, Peter Swire, Gerry Hinkley, Allen Briskin, Marcy Wilder, William Braithwaite, and Janlori Goldman.

Finally, we must note that none of this work would have been possible without the leadership and inspiration of our co-chairs, William Braithwaite and Mark Frisse.They have led us with steady hands and determination of spirit.
