The implementers page should have a basic OpenHIE overview to ensure that implementers actually understand what OHIE is and what it isn’t. The layman’s guide is a good start but would want a bit more

Governance
In order to effectively provide
-- THE FOLLOWING EXTRACT IS FROM THE ONC website https://www.healthit.gov/policy-researchers-implementers/health-information-exchange-governance, and we will need to determine if we align the Governance discussion around such descriptions and principles. --
From the US Gov't Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), the following definition of HIE Governance is afforded:
provide governance oversight for the HIE architecture and its constituent business and technical components, it is recommended to establish a Governance Framework for sponsorship thus ensuring policies, standards and processes are established for health information exchange among "a set of participants.
"HIE governance refers to the establishment and oversight of a common set of behaviors, policies,
and standards that enable trusted electronic health information exchange among a set of participants."

- Organizational Principles: Identify generally applicable approaches for good self-governance;
- Trust Principles: Guide HIE governance entities on patient privacy, meaningful choice, and data management in HIE;
- Business Principles: Focus on responsible financial and operational policies for governance entities, with emphasis on transparency and HIE with the patients best interests in mind;
- Technical Principles: Express priorities for the use of standards in order to support the Trust and Business Principles as well as furthering the execution of interoperability.
It is is thought that the Principles and 'actions' above could be adopted as a starting place for determining the appropriate governance model or models needed for the context of low-resource settings, or the needs of a particular country or Domain setting.
