Health Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP),.The USHIK Home portal provided an overview of all the information in USHIK. Each portal presented a specific subset of content relevant to a particular topic in a manner uniquely useful to the users of that portal. The USHIK standards, metadata, and other artifacts were separated into several portals based on topic, content type, and audience. The Children's EHR Format metadata and final report are not available from other sites.The APCD metadata are available from individual State APCD websites.The CMS Quality Reporting/eCQM metadata are available from the Electronic Clinical Quality Improvement (eCQI) Resource Center.The Common Formats metadata are available from the AHRQ Patient Safety Organization Privacy Protection Center.The HITSP materials were previously available on but this site was disabled. The HITSP is dormant and the materials are no longer available from other sites.The standards metadata are available from the X12 and NCPDP websites.USHIK is being archived because some of the metadata are maintained by other sites and there is no need for duplication.

The registry did not attempt to change the metadata content but rather provided a structured way to view data for the technical or casual user. The USHIK metadata registry was a neutral repository of metadata from an authoritative source used to promote interoperability and reuse of data. Its content included administrative items and other artifacts for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Quality Reporting Programs, State all-payer claims databases (APCDs), Children's Electronic Health Record (EHR) Format, and Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Patient Safety Common Formats, as well as standards for Accredited Standards Committee (ASC) X12, National Council for Prescription Drug Programs (NCPDP), and Health Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP). USHIK contained information from numerous healthcare-related initiatives. The United States Health Information Knowledgebase (USHIK) was an online, publicly accessible registry and repository of healthcare-related metadata, specifications, and standards.
