The following is a guest article by Todd Broadhurst, Solutions Director, Tamr. Electronic Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) are exploding globally and in the U.S., with 92% of the U.S. population now served by them. Private companies, states, and even large counties and cities are scrambling to launch their own HIEs. Why the exponential growth?
For the 43rd episode of the CIO podcast hosted by Healthcare IT Today, we sat down with Henry Vynalek, Director of HIE & IT Operations at Ohio Health Information Partnership. We look at what the IT stack looks like for an HIE. This time we’re diving into the world of HIEs! What are the big IT challenges that HIEs still face?
In response to this tweet by Kristen Valdes during the SHIEC 2021 conference happening this week in Arizona, Brendan Keeler offered this really important look into healthcare data exchange and HIEs.
In Arkansas, they’re lucky to have one statewide HIE which is focused on improving patient health outcomes. When it comes to HIEs, each one is different. They often have distinct missions, and many states have multiple HIEs trying to approach electronic information exchange from several directions.
Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) are improving the quality of their data to further increase their value. Higher quality data means they can help healthcare organizations understand their region more clearly, allowing them to allocate their resources in the areas that need it.
Such was the case at the first ever collaborative conference for health information exchange (HIE), interoperability, public health, and health equity. The four-day summit focused on the evolving role of HIE, new interoperability successes and the valuable implications of harnessing data to advance health equity.
At the conference, we’ve been asking some of the top companies, executives, and health IT leaders to share some of their perspectives and insights on a wide variety of topics including AI, Security, workforce, leadership and more. Plus, we’re asking health IT vendors what announcements they are making at the event.
But establishing an HIE and finding success can be a tremendous challenge for some states to establish in large measure because they require complex and expensive technical infrastructure. Notably, the platform is modular and provides multiple technology solutions for HIE participants. Resources for All States. For instance: .
The Wisconsin HIE (WISHIN) held a summit last week.

Here’s a quick summary of what everyone had to say in the video: Deven McGraw, Head of Data Stewardship and Data Sharing at Invitae – It’s not a replacement for Community HIE but I think it’s an essential tool for making sure that there’s nationwide exchange.
But as we talk about it, more and more HIE organizations have started to use it and the concept has been embraced by many. I think it’s kind of HIE plus certain new characteristics. Health data utility is still a fairly new concept in the world of healthcare. This naturally made it a hot topic at the recent Civitas Conference.
After years of evolving and struggling to find a solid business model, HIEs have finally found a reasonably secure place in the healthcare system. The thing is, the job they’ve learned to do – serving as an exchange point for any and all data coming their way – may already be outmoded, according to Claudia […].
