The article observes that interoperability of electronic health records (EHRs) and other healthcare information technology (IT) systems in the U.S. remains elusive. Topics discussed include interoperability as a means to reduce healthcare waste and fraud as well as the 10-year interoperability road map released in January 2015 by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC). Also mentioned are different routes to interoperability and rationale for U.S. federal rules.
