NCPDP Task Groups

Volunteers work together in task groups to provide the "fuel" and necessary operating products needed for the volunteer standardization "engine" of the Council. Task groups conduct the difficult detailed development efforts of creating documents used for consensus development, mark up, and modification.

To divide and conquer the work that needs to be accomplished, an NCPDP work group will create a task group. The task group meets via conference calls and email between quarterly work group meetings to complete their work and presents the work product to the work group during the quarterly work group meetings. These products may become standards, reference documents, or white papers. Once the task group has completed the product, it is disbanded. As new work is identified, new task groups are formed.

Did you know that task groups may have non-NCPDP members participating, since task groups do not vote on items? Subject matter experts from companies are welcome to participate in the calls and in the creation of the work product.

The active task groups are listed below. If you are interested in joining, please contact the person noted.
