ASPR, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) are co-hosting multiple phased listening sessions to seek input from partners on all-hazards hospital essential elements of information (EEI). This effort will gather information to provide recommendations for a standardized lens into the readiness of, stress on, and resources available in hospitals before, during, and after emergencies. Importantly, this is a nationwide effort for which partner input across the health care readiness community is essential. Phase 2 of the listening sessions will occur September 25-28, 2023 and will focus on draft essential elements of information based on information gleaned from Phase 1 listening sessions and other information gathered.
A general listening session will be held on September 25, with partner-specific listening sessions throughout the week. Please see the registration links below and register for the most relevant session.
