Health Information Exchange or HIE is one of the core elements of care coordination among health care professionals and care team members. HIE has helped community behavioral health organizations adopt new tools and technology to streamline communication and processes to improve healthcare quality and outcomes.
Conference participants will learn how the sharing of clinical and administrative data across the healthcare system contributes to improving patient safety, overall quality of care, public health and health care. Sessions will feature presenters sharing their strategies and experiences of how HIE impacted their specific initiatives. Find out more and register here.
- Wednesday, May 11, 2:00pm-3:00pm: MiHIN Bits & Bytes
The 21st Century Cures Act included a requirement for easy exchange of health data by the end of 2022. Since the end of 2022 is not that far away, how is the health care industry going to accomplish this mission?
Health care generates many types of data, ranging from simple to extremely complex, and needs a thick, detailed instruction manual. That manual is called Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resource (FHIR®, pronounced “fire”), and it’s the one that the 21st Century Cures Act specifies be used to accomplish the easy interoperability we described above by the end of this year. (Harvard Business Review, 2022)
At Bits & Bytes, learn how the Interoperability Institute (IOI) supports Michigan stakeholders by enabling advanced interoperability testing and development across different organizations and systems through a cloud-hosted, collaborative digital platform and test bed that supports an HL7® FHIR®- based simulated healthcare ecosystem with highly realistic synthetic data.
