SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Purpose: As outlined in its Charter, the National Committee on 
Vital and Health Statistics assists and advises the Secretary of HHS on 
health data, data standards, statistics, privacy, national health 
information policy, and the Department's strategy to best address those 
issues. At this meeting, the Committee will receive updates from HHS 
officials, hold discussions on current health data policy topics, and 
discuss its work plan for the upcoming period. The Subcommittee on 
Privacy, Confidentiality and Security (PCS) will present a recent 
environmental scan it commissioned entitled, ``Ongoing and Emerging 
Issues in Privacy and Security in a Post-COVID-19 Era,'' and discuss 
with fellow members potential opportunities where the Committee's 
advice to HHS may be useful. The PCS Subcommittee also will review with 
the full Committee possible development of recommendations stemming 
from briefings held during the Committee's July 21, 2022, meeting 
specific to data access and privacy for Tribal Epidemiology Centers.
    The Subcommittee on Standards will brief the Committee on 
preparations for its January 18-19, 2023, hearing focused on requests 
for new and updated transaction standards and operating rules. See the 
notice and request for comment regarding this meeting published at 87

The briefing will include an update on collaborations with the 
Workgroup on Electronic Data Interchange (WEDI)--also an advisor to the 
Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS)--to inform deliberations 
as the Committee considers drafting recommendations to HHS on proposed 
new and updated standards and operating rules. The Subcommittee on 
Standards also will update the full Committee on follow up activities 
to previous recommendations on the transition to the 11th Revision of 
the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) and discuss plans 
for the year ahead. Last, the Committee will identify areas of focus 
for its 2023 Report to Congress.
    The Committee will reserve time for public comment toward the end 
of the agenda on both days. Meeting times and topics are subject to
