Topic: Federal and state collaboration efforts, Health Information Security and Privacy Collaboration (HISPC)

Question/Prompt: Research what federal and state collaboration efforts (if any) exist for the state in which you live and/or practice. Does your state currently participate in Health Information Security and Privacy Collaboration (HISPC)? If not, are there plans to become involved in this partnership? Finally, why is this collaboration important? Information should be available through your state's Department of Health or at the HealthIT.gov page on HISPC (http://www.healthit.gov/policy-researchers-implementers/health-information-security-privacy-collaboration-hispc).
