Not One U.S. Birth Registration System

• Guam D.C., NYC

12
GOAL

• Employ the same standards to record and
  distribute the same type of information in the
  same manner by following the same business rules.

13
ISSUES/BARRIERS/RISKS

• Insufficient funding to complete process
• Jurisdictional issues prevent the model from
  being implemented
• Perception model is not sensitive or inclusive
• Use cases or prototype not utilized
• Competing external internal demands
• Unconsummated interest by partners
• Old thinking
• No collaborative efforts

14
Traditional barriers have to be overcome to
significantly enrich vital event registration
methods, data quality, information distribution
and services delivery.

• You can pay less now,
• or you can pay much more later
