CDC Seeks Insights on Data Governance to Strengthen Public Health Data Exchange

The use of data intermediaries, such as health information exchanges, has become an increasingly powerful tool to accelerate the flow of public health data.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently announced a public request for information (RFI) on how data intermediaries can be better used to support public health data exchange.  The RFI presents an important opportunity for public health agencies, community-based organizations, and others to help shape the governance, funding, and equitable benefits of intermediaries.
