If NEHTA mandated a small development team to provide tools to translate each independent export XML schema into a standard format,  then all the companies would find themselves in an embarassing situation if they objected to it, and also if they did not provide tools to import from it.

They may have a point to make in the courts about their IP, but politically and socially they would probably not choose to do so.
( Is there anybody from NEHTA on this list?)

XML export is good. XML import is better. This presumes there is some
sort of agreed schema. In fact, they are  all different. None of EHR
developers publish them and if you use something approximating HCN's
they'll take you to court.

I feel depressed.
