Uniform Directory Task Force Meeting Minutes
The meeting focused on reviewing the Uniform Provider Directory Template. Key discussions included defining user types, standardizing provider specialties using taxonomy codes, and determining the required level of detail for board certification, telehealth modalities, and facility affiliations.
