# Proposal for Interest Group under the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance – Healthcare IG

## Interest Groups (IGs)
Interest Groups are groups centered around specific topics, issues, and/or industries where members exchange information and share insights, serve to educate members of the group and the general membership, incubate working groups, collaborate on key initiatives, share use cases, host internal or external events, and support and monitor EEA working groups in support of their interests.

Interest groups should be non-partisan Ethereum-based community efforts and not favor a particular commercial entity.
