The IHE Technical Frameworks, available for download below, are a resource for users, developers and implementers of healthcare imaging and information systems. They define specific implementations of established standards to achieve effective systems integration, facilitate appropriate sharing of medical information and support optimal patient care. They are expanded annually, after a period of public review, and maintained regularly by the IHE Technical Committees through the identification and correction of errata utilizing the IHE Change Proposal Process.

Review and Submit Comments
Each draft Technical Framework document and supplement is published initially for a period of public comment. Documents currently in release for public comment are available here.
Comments from implementers and other interested parties are invited on an ongoing basis. Please submit comments through the links provided below.
Final Text (Approved) Change Proposals
Beginning with the 2015 publication cycle, a new (pilot) process for communicating Final Text (approved) Change Proposals has been established. It is important to note that as soon as a Change Proposal becomes Final Text, it carries the same weight as published Technical Frameworks and Trial Implementation Supplements (i.e., it is ‘testable’ at a Connectathon from the time it is approved for Final Text, even if it will not be integrated into the applicable Technical Framework document until several months later). For domains that are piloting this new process, a link will be available in their section below to a repository of Final Text CPs and an “index” spreadsheet.
New Profile Development
A high-level view of the work items each domain has approved for the current publication cycle and their publication progress is available here.
Call for Profile Proposals
The first step in getting a new profile developed is the submission of a Brief Profile Proposal. The schedule for submitting these proposals for the next development cycle is available here.
The documents linked below are components shared by all of the IHE domain technical frameworks. Each technical framework volume contains links to these documents where appropriate. They are posted here for ease of reference.

The Quality, Research and Public Health Domain endorses the white paper developed by the Public Health Data Standards Consortium. The white paper provides two detailed examples of public health programs (immunization and cancer registries). It also identifies other programs for the development of technical specifications for interoperable systems in the future that manage public health, research, and quality. The white paper serves as a framing document for planning public health activities in IHE.
We invite public health professionals to join our collaborative efforts at IHE between the public health and HIT vendor communities to guide the development of the IHE Integration Profiles for interoperability among and between Electronic Health Record and Public Health Systems. These profiles will facilitate the necessary linkages, standardization and integration of health data between clinical care and public health to create robust overarching health information exchanges.
