Interoperability and Standards Committee

CDR's Interoperability and Standards Committee works to ensure the nutrition care process is consistently supported in healthcare systems. We develop standards—agreed-upon ways of doing things—that improve how nutrition information is collected, used, and shared. This interoperability—the ability of different systems to exchange and use information—makes nutrition care more efficient and helps improve patient outcomes. These standards provide:

• Clear Communication: We use a common "language" and coding system so that everyone involved in a patient's care understands the nutrition information. This makes it easier to interpret and use the data.
• Consistent Records: Our standards ensure that nutrition documentation is consistent and can be easily used with different medical apps and technologies. This makes it easier for healthcare providers to access and use this important information.

Our committee is made up of 9 credentialed practitioners who are committed to making a meaningful impact. We are looking for passionate, dedicated individuals ready to collaborate and contribute to the community. If you are interested in applying please see CDR Volunteer Opportunities to learn more.
