However, the CIO is aware that you are studying Health Informatics, so she has asked you to help familiarize the committee with fundamental concepts related to database systems and relevant health information standards.

2.Various types of medical data and information records relevant to this project.
3.The importance of uniform terminology, coding, and standardization of the data.
4.Various information standards and organizations that may be applicable, and possibly required, for this project.
