from an old article (googled out) April 05 ...
can anyone comment re what happened to this?  what they're doing?


"By creating a system with model data, we can develop a model of what
health IT might look like in the future." said James Kaufman, manager of
the Healthcare Information Infrastructure at the IBM Almaden Research
Center.

The pilot system, called the IHII (Interoperable Health Information
Infrastructure), will use open standards and will be fully operational
by the end of the year, according to IBM. It will not link any actual
health care providers but instead will test how they can make
information available across disparate systems.

The first step is figuring out how to move data between systems that may
have trouble talking to each other. That requires implementing standards
developed across different sectors of the health care industry and
developing programs that can transfer real-world information into
"standard schemas." By moving data through the system, researchers can
learn where standards conflict or overlap and how well the system will
scale.
