Professional Profile
This working group will focus on creating a specification for health care professional profile data and will supplement this effort with requirements for one or more web services to enable the exchange of professional profile data across organizations. Requirements will be used to create web services descriptions. These specifications and services will serve as foundational pieces for other specifications and web services designed by the MedBiquitous® Program and will be designed to allow for building a digital ecosystem that can support health professions education and credentialing.
