Extract from the post:<\/p>\n

So what can we do to make Blue Button even better? Here\u2019s what we heard at the Patient Access Summit:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Enable automated downloads\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Currently patients have to refresh their health information by pressing the Blue Button multiple times. Development of a \u201cset it and forget it\u201d or \u201cAuto Blue Button\u201d function would allow such updates to happen automatically based on patient preferences.<\/li>\n
  2. Address patient identity proofing and authentication \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>To help Blue Button to spread while protecting the privacy of patients, we need effective ways to ensure that individuals are who they claim to be.<\/li>\n
  3. Establish standards for claims data content for consumers\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Many of the leading health insurance companies have agreed to use Blue Button, but work is needed to define the types of content that patients will receive from them in a standardized way.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Formal Workgroup Structures<\/strong><\/p>\n

    ONC will be setting up formal workgroup structures to carry these initiatives forward in the near future. We\u2019ll be asking for volunteers to join us\u2014and the many who have already signed on\u2014in this process. Stay tuned for updates, or send your email address to Erin Poetter,\u00a0erin.poetter@hhs.gov<\/a>, if you\u2019d like to be included in the call for volunteers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
