Presenter: Guilherme Del Fiol, MD, PhD Co-Chair, Clinical Decision Support Work Group; Assistant Professor, University of Utah

This webinar will describe how online reference resources can be integrated with EHR systems through the HL7 Context-Aware Information Retrieval Standard (also known as the Infobutton Standard). The goal is to provide clinicians and their patients with seamless access to relevant information in the context of EHR use that can aid the decision- making process. The Infobutton standard is being rapidly adopted by EHR vendors and online medical knowledge publishers. The standard has recently been included as one of the requirements for EHR certification in the Meaningful Use Stage 2 Standards certification criteria.
