- CDC Explores Potential Uses of HL7 for Cancer Registry Data Exchange
From August 19 to 21, 1998, CDC hosted a meeting of representatives from the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR) and the Health Level 7 (HL7) organization to explore the development and understanding of a standardized electronic data exchange protocol for use in cancer registry systems. Participants considered the benefits and challenges of moving NAACCR toward the HL7 data exchange standard and also examined a variety of options other than HL7 for transmission of cancer registry data. The meeting participants concluded that the HL7 standard had significant advantages over both the current NAACCR standard and other relevant data exchange standards.
