On this episode of The Dish on Health IT, Tony Schueth, CEO of Point-of-Care Partners (POCP), welcomes Pooja Babbrah, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Industry Alignment at NCPDP, and Anna Taylor, Associate Vice President of Population Health and Value-Based Care at MultiCare Health System and Steering Committee member of the HL7 Da Vinci Project, for a discussion on the relationship between standards development and policymaking.
